Meet Matt: Central Student Government LS&A Representative
As the voice of his peers, Matt has a passion for contributing his talents to create positive change. With the aid of administration members he has created a project where students can donate their leftover Blue Bucks to a local food pantry. Such work is tiresome but Matt shares how it's the little moments that make his work in CSG worth while.
It was like three o' clock in the morning in the North Campus library, The Dude, and I approached a student from China, and I asked him if he wanted to participate in student government elections. And he was telling me how he's never voted in an election before, like a real election before, you know China, it's a Communist country, and he was saying how he would never vote in one of those elections because they're a fraud election. So he voted in the student government elections. I mean, it was awesome. It's student government, so it's not like it was such a big deal, but it's still democracy in some shape or form, and I think, to be honest we take for granted a lot of the freedoms we have here. And even in student government, you know,

UDPATE: Why are
Businesses Partners Leaving Google Apps?
NOTE: THIS IS A REPOST FROM LAST WEEK to due to migration of blog platform for all Microsoft blogs.
Earlier this week, I blogged about customers who put Google Apps through its paces and realized it was 'more pony than horse'. Partners are now weighing in that Google Apps isn't meeting their or their customers' needs either.
Today, Capgemini announced a newly formed alliance with Microsoft to 'market and deliver the Microsoft Business Productivity Online Suite". MaryJoFoley blogs about this here. Capgemini is training 1,000 people on BPOS and building new solution to migrate customers from competitive platforms to BPOS.
This news already is gaining traction with our customers. One example is C10, a French consumer-products distributor that has adopted BPOS for its entire organization. It did so because BPOS could deliver the security, enterprise-grade capabilities, and familiar experience the company wanted.
Reminder, Capgemini previously had signed a deal to offer Google Apps services to their install base. It's clear that customers are voting with their feet, and smart partners like Capgemini are moving with them.
Chris Pyle of Champion Solutions Group also wrote a great guest post over on the MS Online blog about why Google Apps is a 'roach motel' (you can check in, but you can't check out) and just an ultimatum for businesses. Chris goes on to validate what other customers have said, "Google Apps simply were not robust enough to meet enterprise needs and offered very little room to provide our customers with additional value or customization. We don't use Google Apps and we don't recommend them to our clients."
Finally, Geeman Yip, CEO of BitTitan shared his thoughts on a guest post regarding why he's betting his business on BPOS. In fact, his migration tools were what powered Vinci PLC's move off of Google Apps. (video below) Again, Geeman validates what customers are finding over and over, "Google Apps was designed for consumers, not businesses. Microsoft employs the same software that Fortune 500 companies around the world use for companies of all sizes."

I just want to say one word to you. Just one word. Augments.
Despite data-nerding-out about lockboxes, they aren't my main source of profits with 1.2.
I've been selling augments on the GTN as fast as I can make them, and the profits are absurd. An augment that costs less than 20k credits to craft will easily sell for 60-100k on my server. I'm considering buying the legacy-unlocked neutral GTN...
With 1.2 augments are no longer obtained via slicing missions. Instead, they are crafted by the following professions:
- Armormechs: Aim, Cunning, Shield, and Absorb Augments.
- Armstechs: Endurance, Surge, Critical, Accuracy, and Power Augments.
- Synthweavers: Strength, Willpower, Defense, Alacrity, and Presence Augments.
Getting the Patterns
These patterns are only found with crits of 'Sliced Tech Parts' missions. 95% of the time, these will give to 1-2 schematics, though there is a 5% chance of no pattern on a crit (ht to GnatB on the forums for observing this first).
The patterns teach a premium (green) quality schematic. RE'ing the premium items gives a 20% chance to research a prototype (blue) schematic; the blues have a 20% chance on RE to research a purple (artifact) schematic.
Gathering the Materials
In what follows, I'm going to focus on the top tier of augments (the 22s). While 25s are listed on Torhead, these do not appear to be in game.
In addition to some base components from the appropriate gathering profession (arch for synthweavers or scavenging for armor/armstechs), the blue augments require 4 Subelectronic Data Module and the purple augments require 4 Advanced Neural Augmentors.
The bottleneck for crafting the top-tier augments is the Augmentors. At the moment, these can only be obtained via the 340 mission discovery 'A Test of Intelligence' or crits on the Grade 6 abundant missions Mysterious Funds / Devoted to Duty. I've listed the returns from each mission in the table below:
|Blue (reg)
|Epic (reg)
|Blue (crit)
|Epic (crit)
|A Test of Intelligence
|Devoted to Duty
|Mysterious Funds
After running just over 200 of these missions on companions with 10k affection, I'm getting a 20% crit rate.
Since the missions cost 1,780 credits to run, at a 20% crit rate and 3 purples per crit, that is about 1068 credits per purple material, or 4272 credits in slicing materials per purple augment made. Adding the cost of the vendor mats (1600 credits from vendor, 600 credits if gathered via a crewskill) and the AH price of the gathered components (around 500 -1500 per component), that puts each augment at around 9-17k credits to craft.
Given the prices on my server right now (60-100k), that is a phenomenal profit.
What is the catch?
There are two downsides to crafting augments.
The first is time. Each slicing mission takes just over an hour to run. That makes for 7 hours of slicing missions per augment. With only 2 tech parts missions available at any given time (3 with the discovery), this works best with several characters with slicing (or, selling in low volume).
The second downside is that players can recycle their augments, removing them from their gear for 22k credits. Eventually, this may serve to limit the demand for augments.
One more upside
In the near future, the market for augments is likely to grow. Right now, using custom gear with augment slots means losing set bonuses on Columi and Rakatta gear. As more characters acquire Campaign and Black Hole gear, there is no downside to picking up an augment slot for better stats, widening the market.
Happy credit hunting.
NOTE: Take a look at the cost of the [Augmented] custom gear on the GTN - made via crit-crafting an orange item. At least on my server, even the lvl 11 oranges are going for 50-100k if they have an augment slot. (Another remarkable profit - since the items cost ~3-5k to craft each).

Notts County boss Ricardo Moniz wants his team to banish the memory of their last outing when they welcome Northampton to Meadow Lane on Saturday.
The Magpies suffered an embarrassing first round exit in the FA Cup at non-league Salford on November 6.
Moniz and his players have had a full fortnight to mull over the result but the Dutch coach says he can't wait to take on the beleaguered Cobblers and put the Salford loss in the past.
He said: "Everybody was down, but I must be the first person to stand up and be positive.
"We have a massive chance to put ourselves in the picture in the league.
"I went to watch Northampton at Coventry in the FA Cup the day after.
"Action is always the best medicine for disappointment. All of the staff went to watch games.
"The club has a bounce-back mentality.
"Northampton have their problems off the pitch, but I saw them beat Coventry.
"They are a good team. When there are problems like that, it brings the best out of people.
"It brings out hunger.
"When people have too much luxury and are in the comfort zone, people have no character.
"I like that. It's my life mentality.
"When people have no facilities they are always at the best. It gets massive respect from me."
Northampton, who are third in League Two, face a winding-up order later this month but despite that hanging over them Moniz knows they will pose a danger to his side.
He added: "In Richards they have a fantastic striker.
"They have Adams and Potter who have unbelievable movement.
"They are very disciplined. What we have to do is create scoring chances against immobile and static defenders.
"They are a good team.
"But pace, skill and penetration will be key."

The U.S.-based solar installation company Cupertino Electric recently completed two utility-scale solar generation projects totaling 30 MW in Huron, California.
Utility giant Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) commissioned Cupertino to design and build the two solar power plants, which have a capacity of 20 MW and 10 MW, respectively. Composed of 139,600 fixed-tilt solar modules, the two plants went online in May.
The two projects are part of PG&Es 500 MW solar PV program launched in 2009. The initiative, which is targeting mid-sized projects between 1 MW to 20 MW, includes up to 250 MW of utility-owned solar generation and an additional 250 MW of independently owned generating facilities.
According to the plan, all the facilities will be developed in northern and central California and are expected to be finished by 2015. Once operational, the 500 MW program is expected to produce more than 1,000 GWh annually, equal to the energy needs of around 150,000 households.
In order to reach that goal, PG&E signed a partnership with Cupertino Electric in 2011. Presently, the installation company has installed over 385,700 solar modules for the program.

1st Reading
2nd Reading
Old Testament Readings (1st Reading)
1. A Reading from the book of Ecclesiastes (3:2-8)
There is a season for everything, a time for every occupation under heaven: A time for giving birth; a time for dying. A time for planting; a time for uprooting. A time for building; a time for tearing down. A time for sorrow; a time for joy. A time for mourning; a time for dancing; A time for making love; a time to refrain from making love. A time for finding; a time for losing. A time for saving; a time for throwing away. A time for mending; a time for tearing. A time for keeping silent; a time for speaking. A time for conflict; a time for peace.
2. A Reading from the book Ecclesiasticus (6:14-17)
A loyal friend is a powerful defense: whoever finds one has indeed found a treasure. A loyal friend is something beyond price, there is no measuring his worth. A loyal friend is the elixir of life, and those who fear the Lord will find one. Whoever fears the Lord makes true friends, for as a person is, so is his friend too.
3. A Reading from the prophet Isaiah (43: 1-5)
Thus says Yahweh, God, who created you: Do not be afraid, I have called you by your name, you are mine. Should you pass through the sea, I will be with you; or through rivers, they will not swallow you up. Should you walk through fire, you will not be scorched and the flames will not burn you. For I am Yahweh, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your saviour. You are precious in my eyes, you are honoured and I love you. Do not be afraid, for I am with you.
4. A reading from the book of Ruth .
Wherever you go, I will go. Wherever you live, I will live. Your people will be my people. Your God will be my God too. Wherever you die I will die. And there I shall be buried beside you. We shall be together forever. And our love will be the gift of our life.
5. A reading from the book of Genesis (2:18-24)
The Lord God said, 'It is not good that the man should be alone. I will make him a helpmate.' So from the soil the Lord God fashioned all the wild beasts and all the birds of heaven. These he brought to the man to see what he would call them; each one was to bear the name the man would give it. The man gave names to all the cattle, all the birds of heaven and all the wild beasts. But no helpmate suitable for man was found for him. So the Lord God made the man fall into a deep sleep. And while he slept, he took one of his ribs and enclosed it in flesh. The Lord God built the rib he had taken from the man into a woman, and brought her to the man. The man exclaimed: 'This at last is bone from my bones, and flesh from my flesh! This is to be called woman, for this was taken from man.' This is why a man leaves his father and mother and joins himself to his wife, and they become one body.
New Testament Readings (2nd Reading)
1. A Reading from the first letter of St. John (1 Jn 3: 1-3)
Think of the love that the Father has shown us by letting us be called God's children; and that is what we are. Because the world refused to acknowledge him, therefore it does not acknowledge us. My dear people, we are already the children of God but what we are to be in the future has not yet been revealed; all we know is that when it is revealed, we shall be like him because we shall see him as he really is.
2. A Reading from the first letter of St. Paul to the Corinthians (13: 4-14)
Love is patient and kind; it is not jealous or conceited or proud; love is not ill-mannered or selfish or irritable; love does not keep a record of wrongs; love is not happy with evil, but is happy with the truth. Love never gives up; and its faith, hope and patience never fail. Love is eternal. There are inspired messages, but they are temporary; there are gifts of speaking in strange tongues, but they will cease; there is knowledge, but it will pass. For our gifts of knowledge and of inspired messages are only partial; but when what is perfect comes, then what is partial will disappear. When I was a child, my speech, feelings and thinking were all those of a child; now that I am an adult, I have no more use for childish ways. What we see now is like a dim image in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. What I know now is only partial; then it will be complete as God's knowledge of me. Meanwhile these three remain: faith, hope and love; and the greatest of these is love.
3. A Reading from the letter of St. Paul to the Phillipians (4:4-9)
May you always be joyful in your union with the Lord. Rejoice! Show a gentle attitude towards everyone. The Lord is coming soon. Don't worry about anything, but in all your prayers, ask God for what you need, always asking Him with a thankful heart. And God's peace, which is far beyond human understanding, will keep your hearts and minds safe in
union with Christ Jesus. In conclusion, my sisters and brothers, fill your minds with those things that are good and that deserve praise: things that are true, noble, right, pure, lovely and honourable. Put into practice what you have learnt and received from me, both from my words and from my actions. And the God who gives us peace will be with you.
4. A Reading from the First Letter of John (1 Jn 4:7-12)
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
5. A Reading from the Letter of St.Paul to the Corinthians.
Be ambitious for the higher gifts. And I am going to show you a way that is better than any of them. If I have all the eloquence of men or of angels, but speak without love, I am simply a gong booming or a cymbal clashing. If I have the gift of prophecy, understanding all the mysteries there are, and knowing everything, and if I have faith in all its fullness, to move mountains, but without love, then I am nothing at all. If I give away all that I possess, piece by piece, and if I even let them take my body to burn it, but am without love, it will do me no good whatever. Love is always patient and kind; it is never jealous; love is never boastful or conceited; it is never rude or selfish; it does not take offence, and is not resentful. Love takes no pleasure in other people's sins but delights in the truth; it is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes. Love does not come to an end.
Gospel Readings
1. A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John (15:9-12)
Jesus said to His disciples, "As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you. Remain in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and remain in his love. I have told you this so that my own joy may be in you and your joy be complete. This is my commandment: love one another, as I loved you".
2. A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew (5: 1-12)
Seeing the crowds, Jesus went up the hill. There he sat down and was joined by his disciples. Then he began to speak. This is what he taught them: Blessed are the poor in spirit; theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed the gentle; they shall have the earth as their heritage. Blessed those who mourn; they shall be comforted. Blessed those who hunger and thirst for what is right; they shall be satisfied. Blessed the merciful; they shall have mercy shown them. Blessed the pure in heart; they shall see God. Blessed the peacemakers; they shall be called the children of God. Blessed those who are persecuted in the cause of right; theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people abuse you and persecute you and speak all kinds of calumny against you on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven.
3. A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John (17:20-26)
"My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one: I in them and you in me. May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. "Father, I want those
you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world. "Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them."
4. A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew (5:13-16)
"You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men. "You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
5. A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Mark (10:6-9)
Jesus replied. "But at the beginning of creation God `made them male and female.' `For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.' So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate."
6. A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John (15:12-16)
Jesus said to his disciples: 'This is my commandment: love one another, as I have loved you. A man can have no greater love than to lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends, if you do what I command you. I shall not call you servants any more, because a servant does not know his master's business; I call you friends, because I have made known to you everything I have learnt from my Father. You did not choose me, no, I chose you; and I commissioned you to go out and to bear fruit, fruit that will last; and then the Father will give you anything you ask him in my name.'
7. A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to John (2:1-11)
There was a wedding at Cana in Galilee. The mother of Jesus was there, and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited. When they ran out of wine, since the wine provided for the wedding was all finished, the mother of Jesus said to him, 'They have no wine.' Jesus said, 'Woman why turn to me? My hour has not come yet.' His mother said to the servants, 'Do whatever he tells you.' There were six stone water jars standing there, meant for the ablutions that are customary among the Jews: each could hold twenty or thirty gallons. Jesus said to the servants, 'Fill the jars with water,' and they filled them to the brim. 'Draw some out now,' he told them, 'and take it to the steward.' They did this; the steward tasted the water, and it had turned into wine. Having no idea where it came from - only the servants who had drawn the water knew - the steward called the bridegroom and said, 'People g nerally serve the best wine first, and keep the cheaper sort till the guests have had plenty to drink, but you have kept the best wine till now.' This was the first of the signs given by Jesus: it was given at Cana in Galilee. He let his glory be seen, and his disciples believed in him.

Mystery shopping has traditionally been thought of as a B2C instrument to measure customer service levels. However, this service is invaluable in the B2B industry as well. In this industry, the stakes are higher - it is difficult to lose customers, but when those customers are large corporations, the impact of such a loss of greater significance.
In the B2C sector, consumers' purchases are driven by price along with good customer service. However, in the B2B sector, the relationship between company and vendor plays a more important role than solely price. For that reason, it is important to measure service levels and objectively evaluate service levels within a company.
Many companies wonder exactly how B2B mystery shopping works. Quite simply, it works in the same manner as more traditionally thought of mystery shopping, with the one exception being that customers, or mystery shoppers, will pose as companies who are calling to inquire about your services and products.

For years, liberals and misguided State Department officials have pushed for the U.S. Senate to ratify the Law of the Sea Treaty (LOST). This treaty would convey ownership of the oceans to a United Nations agency and give international bureaucrats veto authority over U.S. naval operations and could force the United States to comply with international carbon emissions caps.
Last week, we defeated LOST by securing commitments to ensure it cannot gain the 67 votes needed for ratification.
However, no sooner had the 34th Republican senator signed a letter opposing LOST than the surrender of American sovereignty was put back on the table by foreign diplomats and their internationalist allies in the federal government.
With LOST dead, the new treaties being promoted to take its place include the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Disabled, which calls for government agents to supersede the authority of parents of disabled children and even covers abortion. Also, the Obama administration has begun negotiations on a new U.N. treaty to create international gun control rules that could slowly erode our Second Amendment.

text: I admit that i am a right winger, but i enjoy seeing both sides to every argument so i often tune in to left wing news outlets just to see their talking points. I decided to record all the data over the last 5 times I listened to Keith Olbermann. (which i did while building spreadsheet data) The numbers are stagerring, Keith Olbermann clearly has an unhealthy obsession with Fox News, over the course of 5 days of his (Keith Olbermann's) show he mentioned Fox news 47 times, and had 15 segments about fox news or someone involved with fox news. The way i seperated a "mention" from a "segment" was simple. If he did an actual piece on someone from Fox News, i considered it a segment, (i.e. worlds worst/worlds best persons, or a full blown segment.) If he just made a "one off" comment about someone from fox news i considered it a mention. If he mentioned someone inside a segment i did not consider it a mention, as it was already part of a segment. So my question to most left wingers including Keith Olbermann is, "Why do you have this unhealthy obsession with fox news?" I do not see a single news channell which the majority of right wingers could be called "obsessed" with. Is there a reason for this unhealthy obsession? I have not seen a single show in which Bill O'Reilly,(the scourge of the left) has dedicated more than a minute to talking about Keith Olbermann, Yet he (Keith Olbermann) donates half his show every night to trying to slander the Right Wing/ Bill O'Reilly/ Fox News. Can anyone explain the Left/Keith Olbermann's obsession with Fox News?

A day-by-day breakdown of what to expect and where you'll be staying.
Day 1, Windhoek to Ghanzi
We cross into Botswana and enter the Kalahari region. The sand masses of the Kalahari were created by the erosion of soft stone formations. The wind shaped the sand ridges, which are so typical of the landscape of this area. We take a walk with the local Bushmen to learn fascinating bush skills.

Day 3, Maun to Okavango Delta
This morning we head to the airport, jump into our planes and head into the Delta where we are based for the next 2 days.
Day 4, Okavango Delta
Early morning and late afternoon game walks give you time in the middle of the day to relax, chill out and enjoy your surroundings. Why don't you have a go at poling your own mokoro? It is not as easy as it looks!
Day 5, Okavango Delta to Gweta via (Maun)
We are transferred out of the Delta to meet back up with our truck before a short drive takes us to our interesting overnight stop on the edge of the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park.
Day 6, Gweta to Kasane
Our drive today takes us through and around the Makgadikgadi and Nxai Pans before we turn north towards the Chobe National Park. The afternoon can be spent on a scenic boat cruise on the Chobe River.
Day 7, Kasane to Victoria Falls
After a hearty brunch we make our way into Zimbabwe and to Victoria Falls. Approx 1700 m wide and 100 m high, Victoria Falls is a memorable sight! Take part in one of the many adventure activities or relax by the pool.
Day 8, Victoria Falls
Today you will have a chance to do a few of the optional activities on offer in this adventure paradise. The Falls can be seen from many viewing points in the Victoria Falls Park or from the Zambian side. You will have many photo opportunities. Bungee jumping enthusiasts can take the plunge from the Zambezi Bridge, which connects Zambia and Zimbabwe and the White water rafting is considered world class. Also, flights over the Vic Falls and the islands are available.
Day 9, Victoria Falls to Francistown via (Nata)
Departing Victoria Falls this morning, we cross into Botswana and travel south to Francistown in central Botswana. We reach our overnight stop on the outskirts of Francistown in the late afternoon.
Day 10, Francistown to Johannesburg
Today we cross the border into South Africa and a long drive brings us to the outskirts of the 'city of gold', Johannesburg and the end of our trip.
Day 11, Johannesburg to Kruger National Park
We depart Johannesburg and travel to the Mpumalanga region of South Africa - meaning 'place of the rising sun'. We enter the Kruger region and have the option of trying out a sunset game drive.
Day 12, Kruger National Park
Game Drives and animal spotting take up our day with the odd stop for lunch or a swim if the weather allows.
Day 13, Kruger National Park
We spend another day game driving through the Kruger National Park in search of smaller antelope, wildlife, birds and the Big 5!

For several years our people have been on a personal "Safety Journey" as part of an ongoing program to take responsibility for safety beyond awareness, understanding and knowledge to a level where it is intrinsic to how we think and behave.
The Vital Behaviors programme which works with site crews so they self-identify the "vital behaviors" that they need to keep themselves and their colleagues safe, has been a key driver for enhancing our safety performance.

In his
new exhibition,
Artist Mohamed Abla takes us to a very private and
intimate world where trees, water plants and wild flowers are the main
elements. In an unprompted fashion, combining spontaneity and a controlled
technique of oil colors, Abla weaves all these
elements together, and with a master's brush reveals opacity of colors at some
instances, and transparency of colors, at others...
What does the artist want to say? After we experienced with
him the world of the Nile and sailing boats, does he want us to share his world? Does
he want to take us to place where joy and optimism prevail, to experience these
shining imaginations of nature? Can Art, truly resist frustration by offering
This is what the artist believes in, and wants to convey to
us. He surrenders to the notion of enjoying his surroundings on a small island
amidst the Nile where his atelier stands. He
reduces the world to a smaller place... a small circle... which to him will become
the whole world. He challenges himself to make of this circle a larger space...
large enough for all his dreams. He immerses himself in this world and gives
rein to his imagination to recall disappearing figures, appearing "reluctantly" in the corners of the paintings... human figures... human figures
metamorphosing into birds or animals... They seem, somehow, to entertain a silent
conversation with world of trees... they tell a story without features... In facts,
the artist gives us the freedom to construct this story, however offers us the
settings scene... a full of lines and colorful blotches... It's only when we enter
and discover the artist's world, that we start believing in it.
Mohamed Abla perplexes us with his
ability to move between different worlds in each of his exhibitions... from the
world of crowds to the world of the Nile and the Nile boats... He even shocks us with his world on pollution,
remnants of the city and plastic excavations of the Future.
Viewers, who follow Abla's
journey, observe his strong belief of Art to elicit the shock and generate
glimmers of optimism. In order, to convey his ideas, the artist subjugates his
numerous tools to conform to them. In fact, Abla
practices photography, graphic, video and sculpture and proficiently
manipulates, each of these, to closely reflect the ideas he wants us to share
with him.

We were recently listening to Alphabeat wondering what happened to them. We adore "DJ (I Could Be Dancing)" and "Vacation" as well as "The Spell", "Hole In My Heart", and "Heatwave." We aren't sure if they are broken up permanently or just taking a break. But we discovered that Anders SG and Anders B from the band have a new project called THANKS and they had a single out earlier this year that has caught our attention. It's called "Your Man."
"Your Man" is a fun track that sees Australian singer Sam Sparro on vocals. The video has lots of 80s images for your viewing pleasure. Check out Sam's shirt with Michael Jackson on it! Too much! Enjoy!~
Wasn't that fun? Yes, it was!
THANKS have a new song out called "I Can Get" ... but we can't stop listening to "Your Man" as it just sounds like a summer anthem.
THANKS are Anders and Anders
THANKS music is available on digital outlets everywhere. We are adding "Your Man" to our 2017 Poptastic Confessions Playlist on Spotify! Support the artists by downloading or streaming the songs.
Cheers then,
P.S. You can like THANKS Facebook page and follow them on Twitter. You can also like Poptastic Confessions Facebook page and follow Davearama on Twitter.

If individuals have no direct first-hand experience with mental health treatment, their view is often clouded by a stigma of chronic mental illness.
The reality is that as much as 20-30 percent of the population has some type of mood or anxiety disorders, major depression, bipolar disorder, and generalized anxiety and panic.
These illnesses are no longer shrouded in mystery of diagnostic uncertainty but represent biological and hereditary medical conditions that can be effectively treated and managed with a combination of medication and therapy.
In addition, a treatment of mental health problems is generally all-encompassing and includes attention to not only medication and interpersonal difficulties, but diet, sleep, lifestyle changes, and needs close contact with other medical problems to overall to integrate treatment and improve one's health.

Homemade pizza recipe
Spring is here and very soon summer will be too. Isn't it just lovely to be able to go outside and enjoy a meal with people you care about?
Let me set you the scene: a picnic, or a barbecue outside with beautiful weather, gorgeous flowers, awesome people and amazingly tasty food. Good? That is my dream outing for spring and summer.
It is so unfortunate that right now I don't have a proper barbecue grill. I have a portable small one that does the job but imagine if I had those big proper ones. Ooooh the food I would make! Hehehe
Although I say I would love to have a grill, I would also want to have those wood fired pizza ovens, because imagine the beautiful wood smell and the crackling while food is being cooked.
I wouldn't be able to choose between the two to have. I would need both!
Greedy much?! No! HAHAHA
Blogging Edge and Direct Stoves are having a competition of the best pizza recipes, and I decided to share mine too.
I am here today to teach you the easiest and best pizza recipe ever!
I don't want to brag, but if you are not a good cook, or have difficulty in the kitchen, and don't have any tools, trust me, this is the recipe that anyone can do, with minimal tools!
And it is be just perfect.
This recipe makes 2 pizzas, and the toppings are 100% of your choice.
I made a white pizza and a green pizza.
The white pizza has a cheesy bechamel sauce as the base instead of the tomato sauce, and it is topped with chorizo and spinach.
The green pizza has pesto as the base, topped with cheese, tomatoes and nuts - giving the margherita pizza a twist.
For the dough:
3 1/2 cups flour
2 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 1/3 cup warm water (110 degrees Fahrenheit, or 43.3 degrees Celsius)
1 envelope dried yeast
For the toppings:
- White pizza:
1 tbsp butter
1 tbsp flour
1 cup milk (can be more or less)
100g grated mozzarella cheese
1 chorizo
Spinach leaves
- Green pizza:
100g pesto
200g grated mozzarella cheese
100g cherry tomatoes
Some crushed nuts
Preparation of dough:
Put the warm water in a small container and add the yeast. Mix it around a bit just to make sure all yeast is in the water, and set aside for 3 minutes.
In the bowl of a standing mixer, fitted with a dough attachment, mix the flour, salt, sugar, and olive oil.
Stir in the yeast water until the mixture is well combined in medium speed.
When it's combined change the speed to low and let it mix for 10 minutes.
Oil 2 bowls with the olive oil and set aside.
Take your dough and divide in 2 equal portions, dough each piece into a ball, and put each in an oiled bowl. Oil the dough so it won't create a hard skin, and put plastic wrap on each bowl.
Set them aside to rest in a warm place for 2 hours. They should rise to double their size.
Pre heat your oven for 20 minutes on 246 degrees Celsius, or 475 degrees Fahrenheit.
Flour your counter and put one of the doughs on it.
Squeeze the ball flat to form a thick circle. Flour both sides of the circle and borders.
Press your fingers on the corner of the circle almost like making a well, that will shape your pizza.
Press your fingers on the rest of the dough to make it thinner but still keeping the shape.
Don't be afraid to pull the dough, it is supposed to be elastic.
Make it as big or as small, thin or thick as you like - just don't tear your dough.
Put your dough on an upside down baking tray and add your toppings.
Preparation of white pizza:
Make the bechamel sauce - in a saucepan melt the butter, add the flour and let it cook a little bit, start adding milk slowly not to form lumps and give the flour a chance to thicken the milk.
When ready, add the cheese and let it melt while stirring.
Add while hot to your pizza dough.
Top the cheesy bechamel with slices of chorizo and spinach leaves.
Preparation of the green pizza:
Spread the pesto on the pizza dough.
Sprinkle the cheese all over it.
Add the tomatoes either cut in half or whole.
Top it with crushed nuts to give it an extra crunch and flavour.
Finalising preparation:
Put your pizzas into your pre heated oven, and let it cook for around 25 minutes.
Don't forget to turn it around half way through to make sure the pizza cooked evenly.
The pizza dough has to be golden brown to be ready and your toppings should be bubbling.
Serve and enjoy!

If you make it let me know how it turned out.

Guys agonise over texting too How composing the perfect message is the most frustrating part of dating for men
22:00 GMT, 14 May 2012
The days of poetic love letters are long gone and these days love-struck singles must compose witty, engaging missives short enough to translate over text message.
But according to one men's interest website, for single males, writing the perfect text to a woman can be a puzzling and infuriating task.
In a recent survey, a majority of participants agreed it created more of an issue than approaching a woman in the first place and even knowing what to say after that awkward first kiss.
No Shakespeare: According to a new survey by TSB Magazine, men find it increasingly difficult to know what to say in a text message to a woman
PR Web reports that TSB Magazine, a website providing sex and dating advice for men, presented readers a list of traditionally confusing aspects of dating.
Of all the most obvious potential pitfalls, when to text and what to write took top place as the most hazardous areas when it came to dating.
Thanks to modern technology, flirting via text between dates now creates yet more opportunity through which potential paramours can hope to impress each other.
But a poorly composed message, or a misunderstood punctuation mark can sabotage even the most innocent affairs and according to TSB readers, the decision of what to write when can be a confusing game.
Even too many messages can be a deal breaker when it comes to keeping a girl interested, according to TSB Magazine founder Bobbi Rio, who has made quite a business of positioning himself as an expert on the subject.
Of the candidates who took part in the survey, 32 per cent voted texting as their number one issue while 22 per cent admitted that knowing how to rescue an awkward conversation with an attractive woman was a significant hurdle.
Following closely behind, 18 per cent of men complained that is is often hard to know when and how to 'lean in' for the uncomfortable first kiss and negotiate the cringe-inducing conversation that precedes and follows the moment.
Surprisingly, most men showed no issue with the notion of sidling up to a lady and initiating conversation and only 12 per cent confessed that summoning up the courage to do so presented a challenge.
So worrisome is the pressure of creating the perfect text, Mr Rio has published more than a dozen books already purporting to hold the key to attracting a woman's attention and have her falling at a man's feet.
In his latest, Magnetic Messaging, Mr Rio describes the 'key-lock' sequence, a series of three short messages that he believes is a sure-fire way to guarantee a triumph.
Among other 'useful' tips, Mr Rio insists his followers never write anything to tune of: 'How's your day going', 'What you up 2' or 'Hey.'
Let's hope there's more to his theory than that.

Australian dividends are a beautiful thing. A company works hard, doing something valuable for its customers, making a profit, then sending YOU – one of the owners of the business – a proportion of those profits as a dividend. Without you having to lift a finger!
But there's one thing even better than dividends – and that's FULLY FRANKED dividends! Not only do you get those beautiful dividends paid straight to your bank account, but you get a BONUS FRANKING CREDIT, which is usually an extra 43% of the dividend!
So what is this franking credit, and where does it come from? Let me briefly explain…
The world without franking credits:
Scenario 2 – the world with franking credits:
* Note you get the Franking Credit back when you do your tax return, not at the same time as the dividend is paid
Where this works most beautifully is if you're in the lowest tax bracket – you don't earn a lot of money, or you have a husband, wife or otherwise trusted partner who stays at home. For example, Frankie's wife holds all of the Frankie Family dividend shares, and since she's below the tax-free threshold, they get the extra Franking credit as a cash reFund every year!
Australia is a wonderful country which implemented this back in 1987. A few other countries have a similar scheme – our neighbours New Zealand, as well as Chile and Malta. Canada, Korea and the United Kingdom have a partial imputation system, and France and Germany used to have dividend imputation systems until the early 2000's.
Frankie's Favourite Fully Franked dividends yield around 5% to 6% on average. On a Fully Franked basis, this is a pre-tax yield of 7.1% to 8.6%! Compare that to other pre-tax yields such as money in the bank or term deposits paying less than 3%. Even property yields in Australia struggle to provide this sort of yield with such high property values.
There's only one very tiny condition – to get the Franking credit, you need to hold the shares for a minimum of 45 days. But this is basically a non-issue for long-term investors like Frankie and his Friends.
Hopefully that help you understand the beauty of Fully Franked dividends a little better. Armed with that knowledge, feel free to check out some of my Favourite Fully-Franked Shares that I've bought for my own Fund!

Marriage-Minded Triumph Bra Falls Flat on Green Message
Photo Via Pink Tentacle
In 2005, Triumph came up with a warming bra that could help you avoid turning on the heater. Then in 2006, they came up with a bra that could convert into a reuseable shopping bag. 2007 brought us a bra concept that promoted the use of reuseable chopsticks as a way to get greener. This year, though, we have to stretch a bit for the green message.
Nothing says "marriage or bust" quite like the Marriage-Hunting Bra (Konkatsu Bra), a new concept lingerie by Triumph International designed to help the marriage-minded woman find a husband by displaying how much time remains until she hopes to tie the knot.
Um...maybe the green message is when you get hitched, you use fewer resources by sharing living space and posessions? Well...a roommate accomplishes the same feat. Bummer it was harder to find the green thinking in this new concept, but we'll let Triumph have their [wedding] cake with this design.

An electronic oscillator is an electronic circuit that produces a repetitive electronic signal: sine wave, square wave and any other repetitive mathematical function.
So, why an Oscillator? Because, I'm currently looking at Audio, and Audio Effects (Distortion, Chorus, Delay, Flange, Reverb, ...) and the sound is basically a wave with a certain frequency.

World-Wide Delivery of River Sediment to the Oceans
- John D. Milliman
- Robert H. Meade
CiteWeb id: 20150000029
CiteWeb score: 3079
New data and new estimates from old data show that rivers with large sediment loads (annual discharges greater than about $15 \times 10^{6}$ tons) contribute about $7 \times 10^{9}$ tons of suspended sediment to the ocean yearly. Extrapolating available data for all drainage basins, the total suspended sediment delivered by all rivers to the oceans is about $13.5 \times 10^{9}$ tons annually; bedload and flood discharges may account for an additional $1-2 \times 10^{9}$ tons. About 70% of this total is derived from southern Asia and the larger islands in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, where sediment yields are much greater than for other drainage basins.

Comment by Bring the pain:
"There are plenty of countries offering 8% - do some research. Rest of the world in a bear market - obviously you are a Sepo and think the whole world (America) is in a bear market. American property is in a bear market because you have a retarded financial and banking system flow on effects include high unemployment, low GDP and unsustainable housing market due to dodgy loans. Bear markets are the best time to buy in a business cycle you moron. Having an asset depreciate in value means you lose money benny boy; get a grip on your economics. Again, the quality of housing in Japan is shocking. Who wants to live in a rabbit cage made out of plasterboard. Good luck getting 12% for a 1dk piece of rubish, good luck keeping the piece of rubish standing for more than 2 years. Rather buy a house in Swedan, houses made out of brick, stable banking system, and no earthquakes. If you want to lose money in Japan buy an investment property".
This is not a response to anything I wrote - but its worth answering. It is true that there are countries offering more than 8% yield. Unfortunately, they are outside of my area of interest because it does not make sense as an individual to have property in too many countries because I'd need to employ staff to manage them.
It is a gross generalisation to say that the US market is 'over-priced', as there are many areas in the USA where the affordability index is 2-3, compared to cities where it can be as high as 10x annual income. The trick then is to find those areas which offer a reasonable balance between lifestyle values and affordability, or reliable rental income and adequate yield, if that is important. Good online marketing can make the difference as well.
It is true that Japanese properties do depreciate rapidly; but that's why you buy property which is old, say 10-12 years old, thus 60% depreciated, and its more than offset by a 12-13% yield. This is most particularly the case in Japan where you can get a local loan and the ability to leverage your investment. The reality is that many people want to live in Japan, and for good reason. Personally, I did not by there for the yield, I bought for the lifestyle. But I was happy to help my ex-Japanese GF get a property from which she gets a 13% yield - its paid off now.

Fashion Trends: Accessories III - HeadbandsEtiquetas: accessories, fashion, hair, hair clip, hair pin, headband, spring, trend 1 comentarios
Ok... so headbands might not be in the sytlebook for this spring BUT! I just got a haircut and I can barely make a ponytail so... for the first time in my life (not including when I was a kid lol) I am going to wear a headband! Of course, I don't have any, so I turned my head to Etsy to see if I could find any I liked.
I am all for thin headbands that are not too obvious lol - no fascinators (at least not until I get used to wearing headbands).
Headbands and hair pins, the things I am gonna need most these days (and probably for a long time cause I love this new haircut lol)!
Sellers, left to right, top to bottom, are: branchaccessories, MGMart, dandyapple, TenThings, GaiaTroveChicago, adventuresofjr
So... any recommendations for me?
I might make my own headband of braided silk threads =)

The traffic light turns amber, you step on the accelerator in the hope of being able to get through before the light turns red. You narrowly avoid colliding with the person who has taken off seconds before the light turned green. You swerve, you swear, and you go on. After all, haven't you been in the same situation almost every time you have taken the car out?
Accidents are averted most of the time. When they happen, the victims become just another statistic. Yet, we continue to set our own rules. Breaking traffic laws is not even considered a risk.____

I am not saying they are not accurate.
But there is a difference between making a 5 minutes long video on people that does the job and that speak on what they prefer about it , and how amazing it is
And to actually spend a day with one of them and see first hand exactly what its like.
How many times have you watched a movie trailer and thought It would be an AMAZING movie, then ended up sleeping on it because the only GOOD parts where the one from the trailer.
That's something I wish I can avoid .... but hey , every job has some down side , I just want to make sure I decide on which one is best suited for me , and which down side I can deal better with
