Financial Education
Core Facts
October is National Learning and Development Month. It's important in both your professional and personal lives to keep learning, broadening, and advancing your skills. Whether we take a management class at night or learn another language, both keep our minds sharp, improves our confidence, and has the added benefit of looking good on our résumés.
On the other hand, ignorance can be costly, especially when it comes to your financial literacy. Investing time and energy into financial education is the best investment you can make.
According to a study published by FINRA, Millennials exhibit very low levels of financial literacy—only 24% can answer four or five questions correctly on a five-question financial literacy quiz. That's a scary thought.
Miriam Webster defines IQ as "proficiency in or knowledge of a specified subject." Your financial IQ depends on your ability to understand the various terms and concepts which make up the subject of finances.
Another study by The National Endowment for Financial Education found that the amount and timing of financial education matters. When it comes to building financial literacy to shape behavior, education that closely precedes a financial decision has more impact.
The truth is, financial literacy is an essential skill you must develop if your goal is to try to build wealth and enjoy financial security.
Financial literacy provides a long list of advantages. Peace of mind alone should be enough of an inspiration. Despite an improving economy, nearly 90% of Americans surveyed by the American Psychological Association report feeling stress about money.
Nelson Mandela may have said it best. "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." Similarly with your own financial education, it is your most powerful weapon for the growth of your wealth and financial well-being.

Nailed it Editor's Note: Timothy Stanley is a historian and columnist for Britain's Daily Telegraph. He is the author of "Citizen Hollywood: How the Collaboration Between L.A. and D.C. Revolutionized American Politics." The opinions expressed in this commentary are his. (CNN) How did President-elect Donald Trump's first press conference go? He nailed it. It was strange, abusive, occasionally misleading. But he nailed it. And while the media will complain that he tried to silence individual reporters -- which he did -- the reality is that the conference was about as raw and detailed as you're likely to get from a president-elect. He gave us a dozen headlines from just one encounter. This is the Trump paradox: Trump and the press hate each other yet they feed off each other. We actually learned a lot. Trump's two legislative priorities are building the wall and repealing and replacing Obamacare. What he'll replace Obamacare with remains a mystery -- but at least we know what's coming. Trump also said that he'll name his Supreme Court nominee within two weeks of his inauguration. In addition, he compared the behavior of some within the intelligence community to Nazis and suggested that the very mention of Senator Lindsey Graham makes him laugh. He even pledged to sack his sons should they underperform while running his businesses. And, perhaps most importantly of all, he signaled that no amount of speculation on his relationship with Vladimir Putin will shift his position towards Russia. Russia was probably guilty of hacking, he concluded, but that will cease once Trump is in charge. This was presumably not the press conference that he wanted to give. The night before, Buzzfeed published some unverified, lurid claims about Trump's time in Russia that have clearly got under his skin. For some unclear reason he has decided that CNN -- which did not publish allegations that it could not independently verify -- is also guilty of trying to undermine him, and he shouted down questions from CNN's Jim Acosta. It was unfair, bullying behavior. But calling out the press is not entirely unheard of. Obama scolded reporters for doing things he didn't approve of; Nixon obsessed about the hostile liberal press. What's different about Trump is how happy he is to personalize his battles, to roll up his sleeves and jump into the fight while on live TV. Un-presidential? Yes. Unpopular? I suspect not. The media has to accept that popular attitudes towards journalism have shifted according to partisan bias, and there are a lot of conservatives nowadays who disbelieve unfavorable reporting of Trump simply because they don't trust its source. In their opinion, conservatives have been losing since George W. Bush because they've been too nice -- and Trump's aggressive approach is not only entertaining but necessary. Independent voters, meanwhile, might appreciate the way that Trump cuts through gossip to the heart of the matter. Does anyone really believe what Buzzfeed published about Trump? No. Do they want friendlier relations with Russia with an eye to allying against Islamist terrorists? Yes. It's noticeable that whenever Trump hasn't got an answer for a difficult question, he'll say that the public doesn't care about it. And on everything from his business contacts in Russia to his taxes, he's probably correct enough about this assessment to get away with the deflection. In other words, I can see this style of press conference getting him out of trouble more than it lands him in it. What a stylistic contrast from Obama. On Tuesday night, Obama rounded off his presidency with a typically professorial speech that told us what we've all been getting wrong and what we need to do to make things better. A moral lecture, in other words. Trump, by contrast, just gets down to business. It's frequently disingenuous and often ugly -- but it's compelling. http://www.cnn.com/2017/01/11/opinions/trump-news-conference-stanley/index.html _________________CCCP Conservative Christian Coalition for Perfection 01/11/17 11:54pm AWM No Salvation Joined: 05 Dec 2012 Posts: 4536 Age: 56 He knows that both sides are distrustful of the press, and gains real estate when he trashes them.

How does the iBanding's Directory help?
For Customers
For Insurance Agents
Malaysia's First and Largest Insurance Agent Directory
There are hundreds of thousands of insurance agents in Malaysia, life insurance agents alone account to about 85,000. All Life Insurance Agents are required to be registered with the Life Insurance Agent Association of Malaysia (LIAM) before they are allowed market and distribute any Life insurance product. Unlike General Insurance Agents, Life Insurance Agents are only able to represent ONE insurance company.
For General Insurance, General Insurance Agents are required to be registered with the General Insruance Association of Malaysia, called PIAM ( Persatuan Insurans Am Malaysia). For 2015, PIAM counted almost 40,000 General Insurance Agent. Unlike Life Agents, General Agents are allowed to sell insurance for TWO insurance companies. However, it is common practice in Malaysia to sell insurance from several companies by partnerships between insurance agents.
In this insurance agent directory, we would like to have a complete list of all the individual agents and agencies in Malaysia, both General and Life; Takaful and conventional insurance. This is to help the Malaysian consumers in locating the best agent nearest to them. Additionally we offer a rating system which allows clients to rate the agents and agencies according to the experiences that they had with them. The information in this client experience rating system will be able to help other consumers in making sound decision when choosing an agent they would like to work with by understanding the level of client satisfaction with the service rendered by these agents. With this system in place, we hope to be able to help in improving the overall service level of the insurance practitioners hence raising the standard of professionalism for the industry.
If you are looking to buy an insurance policy and have identified the agent/s that you would like to contact, we highly recommend that you verify with LIAM for Life and PIAM for General to ensure that he or she is an authorized agent. You can do this online via the verification page here.
We welcome anyone to add to the list any agent that they may have had experience with. Also, feel free to recommend the list to your agent or friends who are active agents. The more people provide feedback about their experience, the better the directory will become. You will be able to find out which agent provides super excellent support and which agents provide bad service. Help spread the word about bad agents so that people do not fall into their trap, but also help us identify the best insurance agents in Malaysia. We urge everyone to please be honest during rating. Thank you for your time.

When I was at Shop Rite today in Bound brook I saw something that made me very happy. They had calf brains, calf tongue, and calf heart. I got all three and cannot wait to cook them soon. I have eaten heart before at Uproot, but I have never eaten brains or tongue. I am looking through the French Laundry Cookbook and The Complete Robuchon to get tips on how to prepare them. So far I think I am going to pair the brain with scrambled egg. I might pickle the tongue and make a play on corned beef. I might do heart two ways. I will use some for a tartar (Chris Cosentino of Incanto makes this) and them I will braise some with aromatics and stock.
How do you think I should prepare them?

The topless 72-year-old acting legend that is Robert De Niro weightlifting the also topless High School Musical legend Zac Efron is one way of attracting audiences, as is having a young man disturbingly watch his granddad sensually put on stockings. Channelling its inner Graduate, Dirty Grandpa attracted me precisely because of the joy of witnessing a timeless legend exceedingly out of his comfort zone. But Dirty Grandpa's marketing campaign is merely a disguise for how such a poorly conceived idea can be masqueraded through the deviously misguided use of legendary material.
With a decent cast at its command and a sexual viewpoint of everything, it's a shame the script cowardly produces a clichéd story that recycles teen film traits to a tedious standard. The characters are forced to places we've all seen before, like a beach full of half-naked bods, but this time the great Robert De Niro is placed in the midst of all these juvenile fluids. Some of Dirty Grandpa can only be described as inexplicable, like when De Niro is caught masturbating to interracial porn. The film truly descends into disgrace because it just wants to be as lewd as possible to see if the audience can find it entertaining. At times though, we are literally in the same frame of mind Efron is at the start; stunned by literally everything we see and traumatized by De Niro's crude slump.
It is such a tonally uneven film that it has the audacity to try and find room for some heart despite deciding to favour crassness for over an hour. Dirty Grandpa begins with an unfavourable mixture of morose stupidity, then transforms into an over the top erotic escapade, and when this gets numbingly repetitive, returns to an opening melancholic tone, trying to convince us that this has been a ruse to alleviate Efron's dreary future. De Niro, quite fittingly titled Dick, is sexually out of control for his age, but when it comes to the film's turning point he transforms into a gentleman, looking out for his grandson… It just doesn't make much sense!
There are so many strange bits and pieces merged together under the theme of sex that its flaws stand out even more transparently. From the overbearing fiancé, to the sexual fiend of a grandpa, his Special Forces past, the karaoke-rapping nonsense, idiotic jocks, a cock-hungry female in Aubrey Plaza and the highly unfunny running gag of De Niro constantly poking Efron's butthole to no avail, Dirty Grandpa is an undoubtedly eccentric mixture; but what a strange one it is. Dirty Grandpa could be a contender for one of the worst movies of the year already, a likelihood only made worse by Jason Mantzoukas' Greek shop owner/drug dealer who has no laws to worry about, and no place or purpose in this film whatsoever.
Dirty Grandpa is so overly entrenched in sex gags that become funny because they are delivered to us through the highly acclaimed Robert De Niro; they are just way too exaggerated and out of place, however, whenever a young'un does it, particularly Aubrey Plaza, whose sexual aggression has somehow managed to transform her attraction into repulsion. She is so profanely suggestive that she easily raises the level of lewdness to the point of total embarrassment, a sentiment furthered by Julianne Hough's terrifying creation of a fiancé. But, Dirty Grandpa deserves praise for providing something different, which is to see a respected actor delve into such shameful territory. Its only inkling of joy is through De Niro's comic execution and Efron's constant victimising, but other than that it's comically inept. There's a fine line between actual comedy and trying too hard to be funny, but Dirty Grandpa doesn't know which line is which unfortunately. Efron needs to just move on from teen movies already, and De Niro… (sigh)
It's undeniably funny to watch him in shockingly overblown, dirty action at the start, because that's what the title imparts, but after this dies out, you begin to think, why has De Niro gone and done this to himself? Perhaps the money was just too good to refuse, he wanted to work with teen movie veteran Zac Efron, get to chant "party 'till you're pregnant," tarnish his well-respected career or, quite simply, because he heard Aubrey Plaza was his 'love interest' and just wanted to "f***". Dirty Grandpa is an orgy of full frontal obscenity, outrageously never breaking its salacious stride even when the initial shock factor transforms into heinous filth.
The Verdict:
Dirty Grandpa is a terribly made film that cannot produce a decent thought-out sexual joke. That's why it needs Robert De Niro there… I don't know if, by the end, that's a good thing though!

Case in Point: Accelerating Sales Goals with Service Innovation
Achieving aggressive sales goals and maintaining high customer satisfaction rates are critical to a company's success. A communications company was searching for a new partner to help it meet these goals and maintain its momentum in the highly competitive cable TV and Internet services marketplace.
The communications company provides advanced video, high-speed Internet, and telephone services to approximately 5.5 million residential and business customers in 27 states. The company's sales managers, however, were unsatisfied with the vendor managing both inbound sales calls and click-to-chat sales conversations for the firm. Performance numbers had been declining for months; sales targets had gone unmet for nearly two years, and close rates were insignificant.
The management team needed a new partner to help it boost sales. Specifically, the communications company wanted to increase profitability with web-initiated sales, focus on a triple play, bundled sales strategy, and expand the value of existing customers with cross-sell and up-sell programs. And, most importantly, they wanted a business partner who could increase sales without negatively impacting customer satisfaction and loyalty metrics. The company turned to Revana Growth Services.
The communications company transitioned the voice and online chat sales programs from its previous vendor to Revana Growth Services' revenue generation associates. Revana Growth Services used its predictive recruiting methods to hire ideal candidates for the sales program. Extensive training was conducted to provide an excellent customer experience, while end-to-end sales solutions were used to improve customer engagement and extend the customer life cycle.
Within the first 90 days, the customer increased its Net Promoter Score™ (NPS®), and quickly became the sole provider. After meeting sales goals for nine consecutive months, sales managers set higher goals and the associates continued to meet those targets.
The number of orders per chat, for example, was previously an underperforming category, but Revana Growth Services' associates enabled the communications company to quickly meet and increase target sales goals. The chat sales conversion rate increased by more than 62 percent as did the amount of revenue generated per chat by more than 51 percent. In the first half of 2011, Revana associates secured more than 93,000 new customers and generated approximately $223,500 in recurring revenue.
Because customer satisfaction and loyalty are critical in the cable TV industry, a standardized exit survey measured the quality of the customer experience and gauged the team's NPS®. Revana Growth Services was expected to deliver an NPS® of 25 percent or higher. Not only did prospects and customers rank their experience with a "top box" score more than 60 percent of the time, the team also immediately reached the NPS® target and increased NPS® by as much as 20 percent.
Executives were pleased with the results. In one year, the associates added 204,800 new customers, earned $15.6 million in additional monthly recurring revenue and $8.7 million in one-time sales.
The new program was a success through a combination of Revana Growth Services' people, processes, technology, and focus on NPS®. All associates were trained to understand the communications company's products and bundled triple play sales strategy, as well as its positioning and competitive differentiators.
This strategy empowered each person to represent the brand in all customer interactions, effectively communicate offers, and improve the customer experience.
Revana Growth Services' ability to boost revenue month over month while increasing NPS®, proved to the communications company that its new partner was the right choice to deliver a superior revenue generation solution.

The Phoenix Coyotes eliminated a potential distraction over the weekend, getting Mikkel Boedker locked up on a new two-year contract. The restricted free agent had gone through the summer without a new deal, but talks never seemed to be broadcast in a particularly negative light.
Luckily, the Coyotes were able to avoid a potential Nazem Kadri type situation with their young forward, signing a guy with major upside in a year where he could be in for a big time breakout. The new deal for a cap hit just a touch over $2.5 million is more than fair for what Boedker brings to the table.
He's one of the tougher matchups in the league, given his speed up front. He's finally harnessed his tools in the last couple of seasons, with the 2013 campaign providing his best per-game production. With a new linemate in 2013-14, he could be in for a big year.
Boedker is likely going to be lining up to Mike Ribeiro, at least to start the year. This is good news for any player, but it's especially good news for a player on a bridge deal like Boedker is, tryin to set himself up for a longer, larger contract the next time around.
Playing next to Ribeiro, Boedker will be joining one of the premier playmakers in the game. Regardless of what one may think of his character, there's no doubt that Ribeiro is a fantastic fit for the Coyotes, and gives them an added dimension in the new season.
Boedker will be lining up next to a guy who notched 36 assists in 48 games last season, among the best in the league. With Boedker on one side, and potentially Radim Vrbata on the other, this is a group that could be among the more dangerous top lines in the league. With Boedker now a key piece of this team, and ready to log bigger minutes, next to upper tier talent, he should be set up well for a true breakout season.

World Cup winner Kramer saves M`gladbach, Paderburn denied
World Cup winner Christoph Kramer scored a last-minute equaliser as Borussia Moenchengladbach came from behind to draw 1-1 with VfB Stuttgart in the Bundesliga on Sunday.
German midfielder Kramer came off the bench to cancel out Alexandru Maxim`s 51st-minute opener for the visitors and deny Armin Veh a first win in his second spell as Stuttgart manager.
"Getting a point was hugely important," M`gladbach manager Lucien Favre said. "It`s a huge relief.
"In the first half, we didn`t use the ball intelligently with patience and pace to make them tired," "We did that a lot better in the second half."
Stuttgart`s Antonio Ruediger had a goal rightly disallowed on 32 minutes before Raffael headed off target for Gladbach.
The home team then wasted an even better chance three minutes into the second half when Branimir Hrgota sliced wide with the goal gaping.
Stuttgart soon made Gladbach pay. Christian Gentner helped the ball on to Maxim in the area and the Romanian midfielder volleyed past Yann Sommer from the corner of the six-yard box.
Hrgota had a goal ruled out for offside before Gladbach sub Thorgan Hazard thumped against the post with 16 minutes left.
But with time running out, Alvaro Dominguez found the unmarked Kramer in the box and he kept his cool to fire into the corner.
"We played really well for a long time and then got a bit tired," said Veh, who led Stuttgart to the German title in 2007. "Overall, Borussia deserved the point."
Earlier, Paderborn were denied a win on their Bundesliga debut after Koo Ja-Cheol scored a penalty four minutes into injury time to earn Mainz a 2-2 draw.
Shinji Okazaki put Mainz in front after 33 minutes with his 26th goal in the German top flight - equalling the record for a Japanese player.
Paderborn`s Elias Kachunga smashed home four minutes later to bring the home side level and Uwe Huenemeier`s header put them ahead with three minutes left.
But with time almost up the Paderborn captain conceded a penalty, which South Korean midfielder Koo calmly stroked into the corner.
"Towards the end we had chances to keep the ball better," Paderborn manager Andre Breitenreiter said. "We were bitterly punished for not doing so."
Mainz, who finished 7th in the top flight last season, took the lead when Johannes Geis saw a dipping free-kick come back off the post. Okazaki, who top scored for Mainz with 15 goals last season, followed up to score from the rebound.
The home side equalised three minutes later. Mainz midfielder Geis passed straight to Paderborn`s Kachunga on the edge of the area and he hammered the ball past visiting keeper Loris Karius.
Paderborn continued to press after the break and they moved in front when Marvin Bakalorz picked out Huenemeier with a brilliant cross field pass. The defender`s header looped into the net despite Karius getting a hand to it.
Okazaki headed against the bar in the last minute but there was another twist when Huenemeier barged into the forward and Koo`s spot kick salvaged a point for Mainz.
On Saturday evening, Bayer Leverkusen`s Karim Bellarabi hit the Bundesliga`s fastest ever goal as title hopefuls Borussia Dortmund lost 2-0 in their opening game.
The Leverkusen attacker struck after just nine seconds and then set up Stefan Kiessling in injury time.
On Friday, goals from Thomas Mueller and Arjen Robben helped defending champions Bayern Munich open with a 2-1 home win over VfL Wolfsburg.

Patterson fiscal 1Q profit rises 20 percent
Dental and veterinary products supplier Patterson Cos. Inc. said Thursday its fiscal first quarter profit climbed 20 percent, as sales for its two largest businesses rose and the company had an extra week in the quarter.
The St. Paul, Minn., company said its net income rose to $53.9 million, or 45 cents per share, in the three months that ended July 31, up from $45.1 million, or 38 cents per share, a year ago.
Revenue climbed 8 percent to $849.8 million from $789.6 million a year earlier.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected, on average, earnings of 44 cents per share on $855.1 million in revenue.
The company said sales from Patterson Dental Supply, its largest business, climbed 6 percent to $542.7 million. That included strong sales growth of basic dental equipment.
"We believe this rebound in basic equipment sales is an indication that the dental market is starting to gradually strengthen," CEO Scott P. Anderson said in a statement from the company.
Sales for the company's Webster Veterinary unit also rose 6 percent in the quarter to $179.6 million. Sales for its rehabilitation and supply unit rose 17 percent to $127.5 million, helped in part by acquisitions and the extra week.
The company reaffirmed its fiscal 2011 earnings forecast. It expects earnings per share of $1.89 to $1.99. Analysts expect $1.94 per share.

The King Lion (similar to Mufasa) is shot by poachers in the presence of his three cubs. This is one step in Shere Khan's plot to overthrow the King from his throne. Little Simba suspects something strange, and subconsciously feels that Shere Khan (similar to Scar) was to be his great enemy in the future.
Simba and his two sisters are adopted by the wolf-pack, who has already raised Mowgli, the human. The wolves and the other animals of the Jungle will teach them everything they need to know. Bimbo, an orphaned fawn whose parents (similar to Bambi's mother who was killed by the unseen man, but not The Great Prince since he's alive) were also shot by poachers, will soon become Simba's best friend and companion, accompanying him both in adventures and reverie.
Together, with the help of their friends of the Jungle, the two will become strong and wise so that Simba will one day sit on the throne of the Jungle.

Many parents expect their children to obey them fully and completely each and every time they make a request of them. When asked why they have this expectation, they often answer: "I am the parent and I know better."
I agree that more often then not, we do know better, but I can't stop wondering if imposing our belief system on our children aligns with the importance of respect and openness which are key values in every kind of relationship.
Using the Parent Coaching tools means showing more respect to your child by refraining from imposing commands and solutions to different situations and by asking instead simple yet powerful questions that will lead the child to find her own creative solution to the challenge she is facing.
As an example: This morning my 8 and 10 year old daughters had an argument that almost led to a physical fight. I could have shouted at them something like: "Stop fighting, talk nicely, and go to your rooms." I could have also said: "Why did you call her names? Why are you shouting? etc…"
Instead, using the Parent Coaching approach I asked them the following questions:
- Does this fight serve you in a positive way?
- What do you need from yourself and from each other in order to calm down and to communicate more respectfully?
Asking those questions gives the child tools to move forward and resolve the situation in a more respectful way. The parent, in this case me, did not impose a solution on the children. I made them think and come up with their own solution by asking a few simple questions.
Remember – children are super intelligent and they will always come up with resourceful solutions when being asked the right questions.

VMWare and Hyper-V with the traditional Servers+Switches+SAN architecture – widely adopted by enterprise and the large mid-market – works. It works relatively well, but it is complex (many moving parts, usually from different vendors), necessitates multiple layers of management (server, switch, SAN, hypervisor), and requires the use of storage protocols to be functional at all. Historically speaking, this has led to either the requirement of many people from several different IT disciplines to effectively virtualize and manage a VMWare/Hyper-V based environment effectively, or to smaller companies taking a pass on virtualization as the soft and hard costs associated with it put HA virtualization out of reach.
With the advent of Hyperconvergence in the modern datacenter, HCI vendors had a limited set of options when it came to the shared storage part of the equation. Lacking access to the VMKernel and NTOS kernel, they could only either virtualize the entire SAN and run instances of it as a VM on each node in the HCI architecture (horribly inefficient), or move to hypervisors that aren't from VMWare or Microsoft. The first choice is what most took, even though it has a very high cost in terms of resource efficiency and IO path complexity as well as nearly doubling the hardware requirements of the architecture to run it. They did this for the sole reason that this was the only way to continue providing their solutions based on the legacy vendors and their lock out and lack of access. Likewise, they found this approach (known as VSA or Virtual SAN Appliance) to be easier than tackling the truly difficult job of building an entire architecture from the ground up, clean sheet style.
The VSA approach – virtualize the SAN and its controllers – also known as pulling the SAN into the servers. The VSA or Virtual San Appliance approach was developed to move the SAN up into the host servers through the use of a virtual machine on each box. This did in fact simplify things like implementation and management by eliminating the separate physical SAN (but not its resource requirements, storage protocols, or overhead – in all actuality, it reduplicates those bits of overhead on every node, turning one SAN into 3 or 4 or more). However, it didn't do much to simplify the data path. In fact, quite the opposite. It complicated the path to disk by turning the IO path from:
into :
application->RAM->hypervisor->RAM->SAN controller VM->RAM-> hypervisor->RAM->write-cache SSD->erasure code(SW R5/6)->disk->network to next node->RAM->hypervisor->RAM->SAN controller VM->RAM->hypervisor->RAM->write-cache SSD->erasure code(SW R5/6)->disk.
This approach uses so much resource that one could run an entire SMB to MidMarket datacenter on just the CPU and RAM being allocated to these VSA's
This "stack dependent" approach did, in fact, speed up the time-to-market equation for the HCI vendors that implement it, but due to the extra hardware requirements, extra burden of the IO path, and use of SSD/flash primarily as a caching mechanism for the now tortured IO path in use, this approach still brought a solution in at a price point and complexity level out of reach of the modern SMB.
HCI done the right way – HES
The right way to do an HCI architecture is to take the exact opposite path than all of the VSA based vendors. From a design perspective, the goal of eliminating the dedicated servers, storage protocol overhead, resources consumed, and associated gear is met by moving the hypervisor directly into the OS of a clustered platform that runs storage directly in userspace adjacent to the kernel (known as HES or in-kernel). This leverages direct I/O, thereby simplifying the architecture dramatically while regaining the efficiency originally promised by virtualization.
This approach turns the IO path back into :
application -> RAM -> disk -> backplane -> disk
This complete stack owner approach, in addition to regaining the efficiency promised by HCI, allows for features and functionalities (that historically had to be provided by third parties in the legacy and VSA approaches) to be built directly into the platform, allowing for true single vendor solutions to be implemented and radically simplifying the SMB/SME data center at all levels – lower cost of acquisition, lower total TCO. This makes HCI affordable and approachable to the SMB and Mid-Market. This eliminates the extra hardware requirements, the overhead of SAN, and the overhead of storage protocols and re-serialization of IO. This returns efficiency to the datacenter.
When the IO Path is compared side by side, the differences in the overhead and the efficiency become obvious, and the penalties and pain caused by legacy vendor lock-in start to really stand out, with VSA based approaches (in a basic 3 node implementation) using as much as 24 vCores and up to 300GB RAM (depending on the vendor) just to power the VSA's and boot themselves vs HES using a fraction of a core per node and 6GB RAM total. Efficiency matters.

"Love my Christie!"
Of Course I adore Hugh Frazier's reading. My discovery of lesser famous Christie stories through Audible is like finding special gems.
"Does Agatha ever disappoint?"
My listening habits have fallen into a pattern - an intense fantasy novel then an Agatha Christie to take a break. The reason: her novels are both charming and easy to read.
Like all of her novels this one keeps you guessing, I solved part of this one but couldn't connect the dots as well as our Poirot.
This one like 'And then there were none' follows the pattern of a poem. This one being 'one, two buckle my shoe.' Its little details like these that have made me fall in love with the author.
If you are not familiar with Christie this would be a good novel to start. Her books are not graphic or violent like many modern mysteries/thrillers, but have intricate plots and characters that keep you intrigued.For this reason I'd recommend this one.
The way the narrator directs and leads you thru the plot.
Poirot and the strength of his character.
The steps of solving the crime
yes; exciting and enjoyable
"One of Christie's Best"
I think this is one of the lesser known of the Hercule Poirot stories, but that's a shame. It has a nice twist and a good cast of characters. It's one of my favorites, and Fraser does a nice job reading it. He played Hastings, Poirot's sidekick, for many years and sometimes a little Hastings does slip in, but overall it's quite good and most of the time his Poirot sounds just like David Suchet's famous portrayal. But please enjoy the story for its own sake because it is very good.
"plot twist you'll never see coming.
overall all another awesome mystery by the mistress of who dunnit's. great listen overall .
"Hugh Fraser's narration is superb"
Excellent narration by Hugh Fraser, as always. This is not one of my favorite Christie stories. It starts jumping between a lot of characters which is hard to keep track of. The overall plot was just not as interesting as other Christie book.s
"Good detective fiction"
As always, Hugh Fraser is great. His Poirot voice is very much like Suchet's in the TV series, and Fraser's narrator voice is so calming. The plan is complicated, as usual in a Christie story. It was difficult to keep track of the characters and it was a bit slow in the middle, but the resolution is fascinating. I recommend this story as a relaxing read.
"Always best"
No one. Not anyone can write as Agatha Christie. Ms Christie writes without foul language or bloody morbidity, yet it's there.

Starting a FARM is the 1st step in developing any agricultural
business and its potential is limitless,
though it can very tasking
and demanding but with the few point i will be sharing with you on
this farm am sure you will find it easy to start up your own Farm.
Agriculture deals primarily with food production and any other
benefits comes as secondary so its important you know that at the back
of your mind.
Its often said that to successful faster in life its
advisable to climb on the back of those who have gotten to where
you're heading to, the following are some important points to NOTE!
When starting a farm or farming business.
1. PROPER PLANNING: To get
it from the foundation is to get it all, you need to plan ahead and
strategize some effective steps, you can ask yourself what type of
farming business are you venturing into? animal production??
Plantation agriculture? Aquaculture?? If you've chosen one then you
can proceed on your business plan.
2. ADEQUATE RESEARCH: you
need to carry out some business research and get some findings on the
type of farming system you're going to employ either its a big-time
commercial farming or a small scale farming your decision, research
will determine what your result will be at the end of the farming
3. COLLABORATE WITH OTHER FARMERS: If you are venturing into
poultry farming, reach out to poultry farmers, discuss with them get
ideas from their experience, there are more stuffs to discover when
you start farming so the experienced farmers will have more to say.
FEASIBILITY STUDIES: This is a very important part of any business you
are going into feasibility studies help you determine how much you
will require for your business plan, the targeted market, what people
wants and which area of agriculture will yield a good result.
START UP CAPITAL: its very important for your to map up a start up
capital for your farming business so that you don't get stocked on the
way, your adequate research and feasibility studies can go a long way
to determine your start up capital.
6. PRODUCTION SYSTEM: Ask yourself
a question are you venturing into a big-time/large scale commercial
farm? Home based farming? Or just a small scale farming this is very
important for you to know the system to adopt either man labor or
industrial machinery.
7. PRODUCT AND PRODUCTION LEVEL: After you might
have determine the kind of farming business you are going into its
good note down the what you are going to be producing: for instance;
if you into Fish farming: are you producing consumable fish alone? Or
processed fish oil? Sea foods and lots more, another important
question to be considered is the production level how much do you want
o offer? This will determine your business strength flaws and success.
8. TARGETED AUDIENCE/MARKET: Who are you selling to? Co-farmers?
Retailers? Wholesalers or consumers you need to put this into
consideration , locate your market center if you are going to be
selling locally or at international levels.
This is another important important factor you mustn't joke with if you
really want to succeed quality determines the value of your determine
wish holds the integrity of your farming business and quantity is the
amount of products you are taking to the market place.
BUSINESS RECORD: Be sure to document every of your daily farm setup
plans, steps. Finance, budget, buying an selling. This will help you
determine maybe your business as run at loss or profit.

We are looking to recreate our site using wordpress, if you can help in any way, please contact Nick Robinson.
Returning to this popular Northern venue, we hope to see lots of you at Bradford. Despite the overwhelming delights of our grand meeting in Stratford, we're offering the usual array of exciting choices, not to mention the availability of authentic curry!
Our theme will be "Origami Fashion" - we hope you will send us diagrams for any suitable models - trousers, jackets, hats, ties, shoes, you name it!
Please note, when you drive into the car park a camera photographs your car and records the time. You need to validate your car number in the machine on reception to prove you are a guest, or you get a hefty parking fine from a third party.
Free Folds
As usual we will be holding an Exhibition, please bring along your latest origami endeavours; we thrive on your origami work, be it old, new, perfect or in the course of completion - original or an interpretation of another's work, even gallant failures with a story to tell are welcome! Please don't be shy: let us see what you have been up to recently. You'll have a chance to tell us any stories behind your work at the Exhibition Review Other folders always enjoy hearing these tales, and frequently we learn surprising things about exhibits.
Getting there
Here is the venue website and here is a google map. Right is a simplified map, click to see the full-size versionCar: For many people from the south, just head up the M1 and turn onto the M62 just before Leeds. Follow the M62 to junction 26 then take the M606. You will see signs for the Campanile about 5 miles along. Exit the M606 at junction 2, turn right underneath it (Merrydale Lane) then take the first right (Roydsdale Way) into the Euroway Industrial Estate. Once in the estate, turrn right and you will see the Campanile.
Train : The Bradford Interchange is 3.6 miles from the venue. From there you will need get a taxi or bus from Bradford city centre. The approximate price of a taxi to the Campanile is £6 from the city centre or £22 from Leeds and Bradford Airport. http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/stations_destinations/BDI.aspxBus: from Bradford centre, take the 606 directly to Euroway Industrial Estate http://www.wymetro.com/BusTravel/bustimetables/Bustimetable/606/

The Injector Group is responsible for the H- ion source, the RFQ and the 70 MeV drift tube linear accelerator (linac). Ion source, electrical and radio frequency support sections within the Group maintain the high performance of the injector, and the accelerator physics section is involved in linac research and development. The Group also runs an ion source development programme lead by Dan Faircloth.
The Synchrotron Group provides RF engineering, machine physics and beam diagnostics expertise for the synchrotron and extracted proton beam line. Members of the Group are involved in ISIS development programmes such as the provision of dual harmonic cavities in the synchrotron, beamline design for the ISIS Second Target Station Project and possible future upgrades to 1 - 5 MW.
The ISIS accelerator systems have some 6000 parameters that have to be monitored or controlled and around 1000 electronic interface modules. The Accelerator Controls Group develops the computer control system hardware and software for the ISIS accelerator, target and control rooms using the Vsystem package plus a variety of custom and industrial control hardware and software. This includes the integration of new equipment as components are replaced on the accelerator.
Facility-wide installation services are co-ordinated by the Operations and Installations Group through its electrical, mechanical, ancillary plant and vacuum sections. The Group is also responsible for the correct operation of the facility during user cycles, and has responsibility for the ISIS infrastructure and the mechanical and electrical workshops.

The Target Controls Group provides support for the neutron target station and intermediate muon target operations as well as developing target control systems.
The Electrical Engineering Group is responsible for the maintenance and development of the synchrotron and extracted proton beam line. Electrical support is provided for the synchrotron in particular and ISIS in general. The Group is involved in many upgrade projects, including replacement of the main magnet power supply and a new high voltage kicker power supply system.
The operation of the neutron target station and the intermediate muon target are the responsibility of the Experimental Halls Group. In addition, the Group provides an installation and survey service in support of ISIS programmes, and supplies a 'heavy gang' service for the facility.
The Ion Beams Group is engaged in a variety of projects including studies of high power targets for a future neutrino factory, release mechanisms in radioactive ion beam targets and the Muon Ionisation Cooling Experiment (MICE).
Much of the physics underpinning the operation of the ISIS accelerator is provided by the Theory and Future Projects Group. In addition, the Group is involved in development projects such as synchrotron design for a possible 1 MW upgrade for the facility. The Group maintains high level scientific links with other accelerator laboratories and with international accelerator-based projects, including a collaboration with CERN on neutrino factory rings, with Fermilab on an 8 GeV proton driver, and with the KEK group designing the JPARC project in Japan.
The Project Engineering Group provides professional mechanical engineering expertise to create new facilities from concept through detailed design, costing, project management, procurement and installation to commissioning and operation. The Group is also committed to maintain mechanical engineering safety standards throughout the facility.
Health physics services for all ISIS activities are the responsibility of the Health Physics Group. The Group ensures that the ALARA principle (all radiation exposures should be As Low As Reasonably Attainable) is fully complied with in respect of doses to staff and visitors. The Group also provides health physics training for staff and visitors and is responsible for management of radioactive waste.

Yesterday on MSNBC, Chuck Todd pressed Mitt Romney senior adviser Eric Fehrnstrom to explain why Obamacare's individual mandate is a tax but Romneycare's individual mandate is a penalty. Fehrnstrom declined. Instead he claimed that both the Obamacare mandate and the Romneycare mandate were penalties. This directly contradicts the message of every Republican that will be running down ballot from Rommney this fall. This is not a minor problem.
Republicans have been running hard against Obamacare ever since it was passed and it has worked wonders for them. New polling may show that Chief Justice John Roberts decision upholding Obamacare's individual mandate has made the law more popular among Democrats, but independents are still strongly against it. This is not an issue Republicans can afford to abandon.
Romney is wise to ignore the immigration, gay marriage, and Fast and Furious distractions so he can focus on the economy. But Obamacare is too intertwined with the economy to ignore. And conservative activists and the media are not going to just let the issue disappear. He must come up with a message explaining how Obamacare is hurting the economic recovery and how it differs from Romneycare. Then he needs to get the rest of his party on board.
Republicans will lose in November if they are using polar opposite talking points about the biggest issue in the campaign.
Campaign 2012
Poll: A new CNN/ORC International poll shows Obama leading Romney 49 percent to 46 percent. But the poll also found that Romney led 51 percent to 43 percent in 15 swing states.
Romney: The Romney campaign announced yesterday that the candidate will visit Israel this summer to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other leaders.
Obama: The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that "Obama's main campaign fund has fallen considerably behind its 2008 pace in raising cash from the Philadelphia region."
Around the Bigs
Associated Press, US manufacturing shrinks for first time in nearly 2 years, as new orders drop sharply: The U.S. factory sector shrank in June for the first time since July 2009—the first month of the economic recovery—the Institute for Supply Management said Monday. Exports fell, and new orders, which gauge future factory activity, dropped at their fastest pace since the post-9/11 plunge in October 2001.
The Washington Examiner, Wages drop, only 5th time in 33 years: In a just-released review of employment in the nation's largest 322 counties, the Bureau of Labor Statistics found that weekly wages dropped over the year by 1.7 percent to $955 in the fourth quarter of 2011 from a high of $971 in the fourth quarter of 2010. This is one of only five declines since the category was created in 1978.
Des Moines Register, Branstad is firm on opposing idea to grow Medicaid: Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad reaffirmed his resistance to expanding Medicaid on Monday, a stance that could reject $800 million annually in federal money to cover 150,000 poor Iowans without health insurance.
The Washington Post, Europe turns to corporate sponsors to preserve treasures amid financial crisis: Crushed by runaway debts, European governments are turning to corporations to keep their historical buildings, churches, monuments, bridges, barracks, archaeological ruins and other sites from crumbling.
The New York Times, U.S. Adds Forces in Persian Gulf, a Signal to Iran: The United States has quietly moved significant military reinforcements into the Persian Gulf to deter the Iranian military from any possible attempt to shut the Strait of Hormuz and to increase the number of fighter jets capable of striking deep into Iran if the standoff over its nuclear program escalates.
Righty Playbook
Michael Gerson details Chief Justice John Roberts alternate universe.
At The Corner, Veronique de Rugy makes the case that it is time to end sugar quotas.
The Washington Examiner editorial board notes that Congress robbed taxpayers twice while the nation was distracted with Obamacare.
Lefty Playbook
Mother Jones' David Corn is attacking Romney for investing in medical waste firms that disposed of aborted fetuses.
Vanity Fair has posted an "investigation" of where Romney keeps his money, including accounts in the Cayman Islands.
The Washington Post's Greg Sargent notes that the new Kaiser poll finds that "that 56 percent of Americans, and 51 percent of independents, want the law's opponents to stop trying to block implementation and move on to other problems."

JoWooD - Gothic for Consoles?
JoWood has announced their intentions to develop for next-gen consoles, with titles such as Gothic, Spellforce and Dungeon Lords suggested as possible avenues to explore:
I always thought that the Gothics would make neato console titles.
*looks about cautiously*
Can't disagree. The leftovers from their original intent to bring Gothic to a console in the first place are obvious and Gothic I/II (in particular) would would suit it quite well.
I think Dungeon Lords would get laughed off the certification without significant work.
The thought of DL trying for Xbox 360, is too funny to really appreciate!! I can't see it happening. Gothic could definitely work!!
My assumption is that it would probably be new stuff in the series … probably take too much to rework them for consoles at this point. But then, perhaps at least G3 could be ported.
I always thought that the Gothic series would be pretty good for consoles. Maybe even better. I hope that this means that there will be more Gothic games in the future.
Gothic and some of Jowood's other games would likely be a welcome addition to the XBOX crowd as it appears to me to only have shooters of one type or another plus Oblivious.
The biggest problem to this is that Jowood would appear to have no concept of quality control whatsoever, which just doesn't fly on consoles, even with the possibility to patch on consoles. Not to mention, I really doubt that they could shoehorn Gothic 3 into the small resource pool available to consoles, after all most people reported requiring 1G of RAM for anything approaching decent performance, and 1.5+G for best performance. (I had 2G, so it worked out fine for me, along with a decent CPU x2 4800+ and decent GPU 7600GT KO which managed to run G3, NWN2, and Oblivious at high settings @ 1280x1024.)
cutterjohn makes a great point, Gothic might go for console but gotic is also known for his bugs and high spec for pc. Can a console handle that?
I think that they could expand the size of their development team if the were going to develop for consoles. The Gothic games are huge and I read somewhere that the devevelopment team only has like 20 people on it. I think that a lot of the bugginess can be attributed to trying to make a very ambitious game for such a small cost. I usually don't like porting to consoles, but I think that in this case, it would make the PC versions better.
Seriously, the gothic games came, saw, and conquered. Web-site forums flowered into existence as the word spread, the grapevine became alive, there was revolution in the air…..but now the halcyon days are over, the heyday is no more.
Maybe Jowood is 'clutching at straws' with this latest marketing ploy and yet i suppose there will be some casual console newbie takers…time will tell how many.
The sum of the whole approach is a well proven sales tactic where a small profit from each of the sub re-releases, Gothic, Spellforce, Painkiller and Dungeon Lords etc' together can add-up to a handsome grand total. If it can be done at all…..then Jowood is the big daddy to pull it off.
………………………………………….. ..
i can see it now……
"hey! dad"
"yes son"
"iv'e got the gothic game on my console"
"really…how far have you got"?
"well, this Diego guy says i have to do a test of faith…and i am stuck"
"no problem son, just go to Graham, buy a map and make your way to the old mine"
"wow, dad, how did you know that?"
"er… (cough) i read about it somewhere, oh and watch out for the minecrawlers"
:lol: :lol: :lol:
*begins to rock back and forth in the corner, drooling and smiling maniacally*
Adding consoles to the mix would just mean even lower quality titles from JoWood. They're bad enough as it is.
Gothic on consoles would be win/win.
For starters they 'feel' very much like they should be on the console anyway, in terms of the controls. Secondly the enforced QA (and most likely they would recieve additional resources for QA from console makers directly) would do them a world of good.
I'm only surprised it's taken this long for it to be considered (that we know of). :)
Would JoWooD be able to greenlight a Gothic game without PB´s agreement? I don´t know but I doubt it. Just have a look at the copyright notice on a Gothic produxt of your choice since G2.
The latest official word from PB, by project lead Björn Pankratz in a podcast after the Austrian Game Awards 1 or 2 weeks ago:
PB is not working on a console product. They didn´t even carefully evaluate what needs to be done to convert G3, which makes a conversion to XB360 unlikely. Their technology is made for PC. They have nothing against consoles though. A later game could be multi-platform. Furthermore he said something which had to be understood in a way that they are not working on Gothic 4 yet. (Sounds like an add-on then. ;) )
The usual caveat: It´s not clear how much he was allowed to say and how much he wanted to say. I also might have remembered a few things incorrectly.

Designer and Filmmaker Tom Ford recently sat down for an interview with Out Magazine, where he opened up about his sobriety. Here's what he had to say:
On Parenthood (his son Jack is 4):
"I always wanted kids. But I really had a bad drinking problem. I couldn't have had Jack in that state — I'd have dropped him down the stairs and accidentally burned him with a cigarette...You give up the right to kill yourself. And I kind of liked that, because it's the ultimate out...Also, I hurt my back. Jack's heavy now. You realize why most people have their kids when they're in their 20s or 30s."
On the family's relocation to Los Angeles from London:
"[Jack]'s losing his English accent very quickly, which I'm a little sad about. He hasn't started saying 'awesome' yet, which he absolutely cannot say He cannot start saying 'awesome.'...The worst for me is 'my bad,'" says Ford. "It's like a country of infants! You hear adults saying things like that — I'm shocked."
On his formality:
"I sound like an old man a lot of times because I am old-fashioned and formal in many ways. If Jack would meet you, he would put out his hand and say, 'Hello, Mr. Hicklin,' and he'd look you in the eye."
On his film aesthetic:
"I like old-fashioned movies where people are more beautiful than they are in real life. People keep comparing [my movies] to Douglas Sirk, and it was certainly never an intention — I find Sirk's movies a little camp and melodramatic. However, I love them, and I know them all by heart, and I suppose I can be a little melodramatic. I like stories that are a little overblown like that, and I do like a lot of lacquer and polish on things."
