The Weekly 2000 AD Prog #2287: Life's A Grind In Mega-City One!
by Richard Bruton
45 years and better than ever – it's the UK's greatest sci-fi weekly comic, 2000 AD and we're here with The Weekly 2000 AD to give you a preview.
This week, we get three continuing strips; Hope… In The Shadows, Skip Tracer, and Brink, all of which will be taking a break next week for the latest 2000 AD Regened all-ages Prog. Alongside the three continuing strips, we get two done in one tales; Judge Dredd: Grinder by Ken Niemand and Nick Dyer with one of the Big Meg's smart wastebins going just that little bit rogue and Terror Tales: Music of the Spheres by Kek-W and Warren Pleece.
2000 AD Prog #2287 is out now, so it's time for a preview…
JUDGE DREDD: GRINDER – Ken Niemand, Nick Dyer, colours by Gary Caldwell, letters by Annie Parkhouse
Something alien and powerful blasts into this reality and seeks out some suitable new physical form to begin its hunt… well, that's the plan anyway. Funny how things don't always work out that way…
Don't you hate it when that happens?
Anyway, that's pretty much all you need to know about Grinder, a done in one daft Dredd, as the Grinder gets more and more pissed off with sentient life, its own and all those around it.
Classic ridiculous Dredd, all about the everyday nonsense that goes on in MC-1, all of it having to be dealt with, totally straight-laced, by Dredd.
HOPE IN THE SHADOWS – REEL ONE – PART 11 – Guy Adams, Jimmy Broxton, letters by Jim Campbell
One of those classic plot turnarounds here, with all the nutty actors thinking they've got Hope where they want him… well, you all know how that works, don't you?
The switch is suitably simple, very neatly done, and of course Broxton's artwork is a great thing, complete with all those famous faces he's deliberately been using as reference all the way through all this.
And then there's the ending, well the ending of this episode, with the prospect of Mallory having that other classic plot twist, getting what he's been thinking he wanted all that time and finding out it's very much a poisoned chalice.
SKIP TRACER: VALHALLA – PART 2 – James Peaty, Paul Marshall, colours by Dylan Teague, letters by Simon Bowland
With Valhalla, we had the prospect of Nolan Blake very much being a former Skip Tracer, desperately trying to keep Eden, his new-found daughter safe and out of trouble.
But trouble and Nolan Blake tend to go together, as is the case right here…
But as for who's after him… well, that's the surprise of the last panel here in part two. We'll find out more next episode over just who's trying to bring him in out of the shadows. And no doubt we'll find out just which direction Peaty and Marshall are taking this final Skip Tracer series in as well. Right now, it feels like it's going to be a tying up of loose ends and putting Nolan and Eden in trouble once again.
THARG'S TERROR TALES: MUSIC OF THE SPHERES – Kek-W, Warren Pleece, letters by Annie Parkhouse
Another done-in-one Terror Tales here, with some fabulous artwork from Warren Pleece, another artist who seems completely at home in black and white or colour.
There's a call from social services that takes two coppers in for a clearance order and a resident, Arnold Dawn, who won't answer the door. Big star in the 60s, too much acid, had a breakdown, all about trying to record the music that he heard in his head, the notes that underpin the universe, that sort of thing.
But, as the cops are about to find out, perhaps Arnold wasn't too deluded in what he was looking for after all, as reality shifts, harmonics scream out, and things get weird in a house of arcane music.
Always fascinating to see 2000 AD do real-life set pieces like this, the sort of everyday now moments and then watching them twist and turn into strange places. And Kek-W and PLeece are perfect for this sort of thing, there's always that grounded, gorgeous normality to Pleece's work that makes it so suited to this one.
We've had a quite brilliant set of one-off strips over the past few weeks, proof that the naysayers about Future Shocks and Terror Tales and the like (and I used to count me amongst that number quite often) are absolutely wrong – the skill and work required to make these 5-pagers original and flowing really is quite something
BRINK: MERCURY RETROGRADE – PART 17 – Dan Abnett, INJ Culbard, letters by Simon Bowland
Okay then, so things really are getting serious here in Brink now. We're up to the aftermath of the Mercury event, where Mercury and the colonies there went dark, tying into the very first book of Brink and what sent HabSec officer Bridget Kurtis off on her weird life mission that we've seen unfold so wonderfully over these past few years.
But here, after that fleeting glimpse of Bridge last episode, we're with Mas, the journo investigating the Union/HabSec/Cult links, dealing with the fallout from talking to his wife's source in Gentau Corp. He's just back from his detention at HabSec and just learning about the Mercury event.
His boss knows that Mercury's going to dominate the news cycle but there's precious little anyone actually knows, so being a newsman, he gets Mas to work up the Gentau link between the Boilerhouse killings, the unions, the HSD, and what Mas is saying might be Big Corp and HabGov collusion. And as tangential to Mercury as it might all seem to them right now, with the talk of the "belief system in Union membership that seems to be involving," we know that it's all tying into the things Bridge has learned over the course of her investigations.
So things are panning out, the investigations seemingly disconnected but absolutely looking into the same thing. Again, it's all that wonderful Brink sense of the bigger picture being so incredibly tightly controlled by Abnett and Culbard, giving us one of the best new strips that's come out of 2000 AD this decade.

My old Linotype-Hell Saphir Ultra 2 scanner is malfunctioning (banding) and I'm looking to replace it. I am considering the V 750 Epson as a replacement so that I can do 6x7 & 4x5 scans. Just for the heck of it I tried shooting the negatives (HP5 & Portra 160) on a lightbox with my 5D (original version) and a 50 macro. The results were better than the scanner at least at first blush. The scanner looks like it may pull more detail after an unsharp mask as been applied and the 5D lightbox combo are sharper strait out of the camera.
I am intrigued by the speed and the quickness of the lightbox and camera set up. My old scanner is glacial. Do you think it's worth persuing? ( I would need to invest in a copy stand & better lightbox) or am I better off just getting the Epson flatbed? One thing I like about the flatbed set up is that it can convert color negs via software, I had a hard time doing that in curves in Photoshop with my lightbox shot.
I think I'll try a couple of prints today to see how the different approaches result in a finished product.
PS I've attached the scanner & 5D sample for reference

UK Woman Invents Detangling Comb For Afro Hair, Inspires Women To Study Engineering
A Black woman in the United Kingdom who invented a new comb for Afro hair is using her success to educate and empower young Black women.
Youmna Mouhamad's new comb, the Nyfasi Deluxe Detangler, provides an easier, gentler way of combing Afro hair. The BBC reported that she first got the bright idea for the comb while studying to earn her Ph.D. in physics.
At the time, the Swansea-based inventor was working as a nanny to fund her studies. The little girl she cared for cried at the pain she felt when her hair was washed and conditioned.
"The whole house would be full of tears," she recalled to BBC. "I wanted her to have a better experience."
At some point, Mouhamad rerouted her academic plan to study engineering.
"I shifted to engineering because I always had a desire to work on things that I can touch with my hands, and I love the process of taking an idea and actually creating something," she said.
Mouhamad received an enterprise fellowship from the Royal Academy of Engineering to develop the product. She launched a focus group for her new comb once she developed a prototype, bringing together women and girls with Afro hair to try it out.
Among the volunteers were mother-of-three Lenient and her nine-year-old daughter, Goodness.
"The washing process is dreadful because they don't want to," Lenient said. "Why? Because it's quite painful for them, especially the combing part…And this detangler, the first time I tried it, it was really easy."
Goodness also raved about how helpful the comb was for her hair.
"The normal comb feels like someone is pulling your hair; when it's tangled, it hurts," she said. "But with this comb, it's very soft and easy to untangle."
Mouhamad is excited by all the great reviews, but business isn't the only thing on her mind. She desires to help other ethnic minority women join her in the engineering field.
"My huge passion in personal development is actually empowering other people," she said.
Her experiences as a Black woman student studying science and technology were challenging at times, she shared. She never had a Black teacher but would've loved "to have been taught by a Black woman."
"When I was going through it, I thought it was me. I didn't think it was the environment," Mouhamad recalled. "But when I spoke to other [Black] students, it really got to me because it was like 'oh my God, you know, it's not you!'"
"I never had a single Black teacher," she shared. "And that does a lot because of the simple fact of saying 'if she can be there, so can I.'"
Mouhamad is already mentoring others while getting her business up and running with the support of Professor Dylan Jones-Evans at the University of South Wales.
"I just made friends with her, and she's taken me on board and taught me a lot about developing and speaking out, especially in regard to racism," focus group volunteer Charlotte Ajomale-Evans said about Mouhamad. "And she's also taught me to look after my hair, which is quite important."

To the untrained eye, climbing boots can look very similar. After all, it's just rubber, leather and glue. Not only are the climbing shoes extremely difficult, but they are undoubtedly one of the most important pieces of gear in your arsenal. Your shoes are the only thing that separates you from the rock, so complete confidence in your shoe's ability to make accurate footwork can be the difference between a sweet message and a threatening kick.
Over 500 different shoe models are available on the market today, and there are nearly endless types of climbing shoes. So choosing your next pair of climbing shoes can be quite a daunting task. Before you realize that the is overpowering, let me emphasize that different climbing shoes are best for different climbs. Just because you have enough at the gym doesn't always mean you're better off on the rocks.
New to Climbing? Get ready to shop for shoes! But first, here's a full breakdown of the different types of hiking boots so you can decide what you need.
Three types of hiking boots
- Neutral Climbing Shoes
- Moderate climbing shoes
- Aggressive climbing shoes
Soft vs. Stiff Climbing Shoes
- Climbing Shoe Clasp Type
Leather vs Synthetic Hiking Shoes
- Rubber: What You Need to Know
Men's and Women's Versions
- Kids Climbing Shoes
- General Guidelines for Wearing Climbing Shoes
- Conclusions on different types of climbing shoes
Three types of hiking boots
First, let's distinguish the types of shoes, the good and the bad about them. Hope this helps you figure out the problem.
Neutral Climbing Shoes
The neutral climbing shoes are suitable for beginners. It is more comfortable and can be worn all day, making it a convenient choice for beginners and experienced climbers alike. If you start climbing more and have a pair of these, they are very likely to be used for long multi-step climbs like me. These ones from Scarpa are my favorites.
- Wear them all day long because they are comfortable
- Their midsoles are usually medium to stiff, paired with thick rubber soles that offer excellent support
- as well as a flat profile that can easily jam into cracks
- As a result of those thicker and stiffer soles, the feel is less sensitive
- Scarpa Vapor V Climbing Shoes are not recommended for difficult routes with overhangs
Moderate climbing shoes
Perhaps not your best choice for your first climbing shoe, moderate climbing shoes have a slightly downturned profile, which is perfect for technical climbs.
They are very multipurpose which is why Scarpa Vapor is trustworthy when you take on slab routes and crack climbs. They give me a stronger grip that helps me feel more secure, something you will ll really appreciate when climbing.
- A climbing shoe with a downturned shape gives you more power than a climbing shoe with a neutral shape
- Making it ideal for challenging routes
- These shoes have thinner soles and stickier rubber, which means they have a tougher grip you can feel
- much better than aggressive shoes
- They are not as good as aggressive climbing shoes for overhanging routes and other challenges
- They are not as comfortable as neutral climbing shoes
- La Sportiva Skwama Climbing Shoes tend to wear out faster than neutral climbing shoes
Aggressive climbing shoes
Aggressive climbing shoes have the very distinguished feature of very downturned toes which helps give you lots of heel tension. La Sportiva Skwama (for those who prefer verlcro straps) La Sportiva Genius (if you prefer a laceup climbing shoe) for example are a solid choice for those challenging climbs, especially overhanging ones. They are asymmetric in shape, curving toward your big toe to give you that power for absolute precision on small holds. They are very snug and are best for a single pitch like a sport climb or for use at the gym.
- To put your feet in a strong position, the shape is excellent
- They provide better grip and feel than neutral shoes
- Climbing shoes of this type are much less comfortable than those of the other two types
- The downturned shape isn't so good for fitting into cracks or smearing around
- The rubber wears faster than in neutral shoes
Soft vs. Stiff Climbing Shoes
You should also know whether you should get soft or stiff climbing shoes before heading to Amazon to buy one. Don't be distracted by dust we're talking about sneakers here!
There is an argument here, we have seen many climbers wrestling with this issue a few years ago when they are a beginner.
Do you choose soft hiking boots or hard hiking boots?
Speaking to people with more experience we think that you need stronger shoes. Trust me, it takes a lot of force to stand right on your toes and you fall into a small hold. The softer the hiking boots, the less traction.
Harder hiking boots help keep your feet from getting tired. They will be exhausted and you will not have the strength to cling to these clues. Stiff shoes help because this midsole provides the support you need. If you don't shake it every day, it will take time to build leg strength. After that, you can use softer shoes but choose harder ones first.
Climbing Shoe Clasp Type
Now let's talk about the style. There are three types of hiking shoe fasteners. Below are details about each.
Lace-up hiking boots are generally the most comfortable. The degree of tightening can be adjusted, which is very convenient. This is why we recommend the La Sportiva Genius. Because it can put these babies at ease and feel better instantly after a long day of climbing. The only real complaint with the laces is that they have to be put on and off when following a route. There are some inconveniences, but they are there. We prefer the toe-length straps because they fit really well, but one caveat is that the straps can get in the way at times.
The Velcro strap is very easy to put on and take off, making it ideal for bouldering or sport climbing. This makes them a little more comfortable and also gives them the performance they need. It should be very cozy when you first receive it. You can adjust the fit as it stretches. But this also has the disadvantage of stretching too much if worn too often. Best worn when on rocks. The Scarpa Instinct VS got pretty rave reviews.
Climbing slip-on
They can be worn with an elastic band. The vacuum cleaner holds it in place. You can also find ones with Velcro on the top to take full advantage of the best of both worlds. They are impeccably comfortable and suitable for this demanding, thin crevice technical climb, but can also be used during training and bouldering. Check it out here (Five Ten Anasazi MoccAsym)!
Leather vs Synthetic Hiking Shoes
Now let's talk about the materials. The majority of vegans prefer synthetics to leather, but listen to me when it comes to the difference here so you can get the best climbing experience in your shoes. First, the good news is that it's simply a matter of preferring leather or synthetic boots over climbing boots. We recommend that you always try it and find something you like. You can also see what other climbers you know are talking about, so you can combine them with my wise words to get the perfect fit for you.
Leather stretches, but synthetics do not. So, this is something to keep in mind when buying hiking shoes. The positive side of stretching for the skin is that it will conform to your foot over time, ensuring a perfect fit.
But we also have something to say about composting. The point is, you have to buy a bigger one. In short, you should buy a leather upper one size smaller than you need and a synthetic upper larger. And now there is even better news. This is because many brands have started producing leather with synthetic linings in stretchable areas, as is the case with La Sportiva Solution. This is truly genius.
Rubber: What You Need to Know
Everyone has an opinion about rubber. Please feel free to write your own opinion based on your experience while giving my opinion. You may find that certain things that other climbers (even myself) disagree with will work for you, but if it works for you, then this is the right choice.
Rubber, which tends to be tackier, is often softer and less durable. And if it's really soft and sticky, you're more likely to go back to shopping for climbing shoes sooner than you think. They tend to scrape pretty quickly and often cause you to slip out of the hold.
On the other hand, hard rubber can hold its edges longer, but it's not good enough to stick your feet against rocks. So for high-performance sports trails or bouldering, soft rubber is usually best, but as they claim, it's always a good idea to buy durable shoes.
Men's and Women's Versions
Many men's and women's sneakers are similar in shape. The main difference between the two is that men tend to be wider and women tend to be narrower. But if you're a wide-legged woman, you won't be able to stop buying men's hiking boots if they're a better fit for you. We know we said "tight," but there's a difference between being tight and breaking the bones of your leg.
Conversely, men with narrow feet shouldn't be ashamed to wear women's hiking boots if they fit better. None of the climbers ever pointed at anyone or said "Ha!" Like Nelson Muntz from The Simpsons. We don't care. Also, we're too busy looking for rocks and other hazards to observe the best climbers or add fun to our shoe selection. There is also a Unisex suggestion, but it is too general to be suitable. Because they don't vary in width, it's hard to find a fit that fits me and my wide legs.
Kids Climbing Shoes
Do you have a kid who likes to climb? big! Hiking shoes for children are also available. They are made with the same rubber soles as yours and provide a better grip for kids than regular sneakers. If your child has ever climbed a blue moon like that birthday, we hardly ever feel the need for it.
However, if your child is often interested in climbing, it is well worth the investment. Some manufacturers have even made it easier to buy children's climbing shoes because they're designed to work with the rapid growth of feet that children typically experience. They have no bias, so they won't hurt your feet. It's a good idea to check if your child wants to climb walls. We have heard a lot of good things about Mad Rock's Mad Climbing Shoes from kids climbing friends.
General Guidelines for Wearing Climbing Shoes
Now that we've covered all of this, here are some things to look out for when putting on potential climbing shoes.
- Do not choose shoes that leave space between the toe and the inside of the shoe. It's not like your sneakers or hiking boots. Accurate fit is required. Otherwise, the shoes won't fit tight when you grab your toes.
- Toes must be flat or curved and knotted so that the top of the shoe does not hurt. Ouch!
- The heel must fit snugly on the inside. Stand on your toes so the back of your shoe does not pinch the delicate part of your Achilles tendon. This can make any climb utterly miserable.
- If your climbing shoes have difficulty sliding over your feet, they are definitely too tight.
- A high performance shoe means a tight fit. Make sure you can actually get there.
There's a great post on how tight the climbing boots should be, so read on for more tips!
Conclusions on different types of climbing shoes
It all depends on what you plan to use your climbing shoes for, the style and materials you prefer. For beginners, we suggest a neutral style and from there you can move on to more technical shoes. Even then, these neutral shoes provide even more comfort to accompany multi-level climbs.
The higher you go, the more shoes you have. It's just the way it is! However, each gives a specific feel to a particular type of climbing, so it's important to choose one that feels special to you and your feet.

Freestyle Races to Lapland in Time for Christmas
Freestyle takes on more than 2000 kilometres in aid of local charity Myton Hospice in its Race to Lapland before Christmas.
Article | Eleanor Dubédat
You may have already received a dozen emails from brands you didn't even know existed, explaining how they're adapting to the current situation amidst COVID-19. Which ones have truly stood out to you? If the answer is none, then you've probably witnessed a perfect example of how not to approach comms in a crisis.
We've created a bank of free resources, where we shared or best approach to dealing with a crisis, key information and ways we can help during these unpredictable times.
Here's why your customer experience matters most right now.
Read our checklist for communication in a crisis.
And if employee engagement is one thing you're keen to do better when remote, here's how we run our own virual pub quiz, and how you could do the same for your team at work!
Keeping momentum, maintaining a sense of normality and sometimes just feeling like sharing, are all reasons why we've started a new initiative via our Instagram channel. The 'Working From Home Diaries' is our newest highlight, and in there you'll see how our Freestylers work from home, the challenges they have in doing so and what the behind the scenes really looks like.
For our 6th Digital Spotlight interview, we sat down with Lynn King, Marketing and Digital Director at Nisbets, the leading catering equipment provider. We discussed customer expectations, evolving channels and customer-centric attitudes, all of which are deeply rooted into Nisbets' culture.
Watch or read the full interview here!
Disclaimer: This event took place before the country was on official lockdown.
Our MD, Suzanne, sat on a panel discussing working cultures and the vast importance of investing in our people. The panel shared their visions of culture-centric business landscapes and the consensus was... low and behold... that company culture is just as important as the work itself.
Earlier this month (prior to #lockdown), a few Freestylers headed down to London for the Campus Design Sprints workshop! As digital experts, we're always looking for ways to implement new learnings and finesse our processes, and the workshop was a great opportunity for us to do so. We flexed our creative muscles and came away refreshed and full of new ideas to share with the team 🧠
Space for meetings, thinking and getting our heads down has been increasingly in need at The Barns, for the last year or so. At the beginning of March, we made a bit more room with a new pod that reminds us of Bilbo's home. Very serene. Except that ours arrived on top of a 40ft trailer! Sadly, we didn't get much use out of it in March but we can't wait to see it again in the brighter summery days!
Our new best friends? Slack & Zoom.
It's safe to say that we've settled nicely into transitioning our whole studio to work from home, for the time being. This isn't something new for us as we've always offered flexible working as one of our company perks, but having the whole team working remotely full-time was definitely a first!
So far it's been a blast - as well as increasing productivity, we've enhanced our company culture with additional, self-isolation appropriate activities. Name it and we've done it: from virtual beers on Friday to mid-week pub quizzes, wheel-of-fortune coffee catchups and online Pilates classes at lunchtime, adapting to this challenging period has proven a success for us, and we're grateful to be part of such a reactive and adaptive industry.

The accounting needs of a growing company can become tricker and more complex. Reliance on a robust accounting software system becomes increasingly vital under these circumstances. Such businesses can no longer rely on multiple spreadsheets or third-party access files with custom formulae. Two leading accounting products aim to solve the accounting challenges of small and mid-size businesses – QuickBooks by Intuit and NetSuite by Oracle.
However, each software has its differences, applications, and functionalities best suited for certain types of businesses and their needs. Our clients often contemplate switching their accounting software (for various business reasons). One common question asked is if they should convert NetSuite to QuickBooks or, in other cases, QuickBooks to NetSuite data conversions. We first try to understand the specific business case in either situation and recommend the best course of action. This article covers some common questions relating to NetSuite and QuickBooks, their comparative features and their uses.
What is the Difference Between NetSuite and QuickBooks?
First off, NetSuite is a CRM solution for mid-sized businesses. The NetSuite account structure supports processes beyond the accounting department, including eCommerce, ERP, HR, etc. The additional functionality also means that NetSuite is best suited for mid-market companies and is priced accordingly. As they say, you get what you pay for.
On the other hand, QuickBooks evolved from accounting software that offers other essential functions like payroll and time-tracking within the financial accounting domain. QuickBooks is ideal for small to mid-sized businesses that do not have overtly complex accounting processes and workflows – this covers a large percentage of users.
How do NetSuite Features Compare to QuickBooks?
QuickBooks offers features that cater to most small businesses. Their Enterprise (QuickBooks Desktop) or Online Advanced editions incorporate additional functions to support mid-sized firms, franchises or multi-location businesses.
NetSuite is an out-of-the-box ERP and can quickly integrate with various departmental functions. NetSuite prides itself as the leading mid-market ERP as a QuickBooks enterprise alternative and has the backing of the leader in ERP and database technology – Oracle.
Both software supports financial processes, and this is the domain where it's easier to make apple-to-apples comparisons between NetSuite and QuickBooks.
|Accounting Reports
|Ability to create custom industry reports, and it offers a consolidated view of financial data.
|Advanced reports library with access to 75+ built-in performance indicators.
|Simple and easily configurable dashboard views essential for the day-to-day management of an SMB.
|Detailed, customizable dashboard with user access privileges. Requires some setup but can offer in-depth views across multiple data points.
|General Ledger
|Uses tags to categorize ledgers but has certain limits on tags. Sufficient for typical SMB usage.
|Multidimensional reporting removes the need for a complex static general ledger. NetSuite builds a dynamic GL that info, processes and workflows at the transaction level. Ability to assign parent and subsidiary relations.
|Accounts Payable
|Pre-set controls for purchasing, approval workflow engine and user permissions.

Who Uses NetSuite and QuickBooks?
NetSuite ERP is ideal for manufacturing firms, companies with multiple subsidiaries, global business locations with an extensive inventory, or multi-currency. NetSuite offers an all-in-one solution to consolidate various sales, inventory, financial and asset data and provide a single source of information. However, there may be instances where a business is downgrading its IT infrastructure costs, shutting down subsidiaries or reducing cost overheads. It's also possible that a company, having tested a full-fledged ERP, realizes they do not need a complex system to manage its accounting. Hence, several clients prefer to migrate from NetSuite to QuickBooks for their accounting data..
QuickBooks Online and Desktop products are designed to be affordable, user-friendly, and manage accounting and books as part of financial management within a business. The QuickBooks Enterprise and QuickBooks Online Advanced editions offer additional capabilities to manage larger companies, inventories and more complex charts of accounts. Most small to mid-sized businesses find QuickBooks fulfilling their day-to-day operations, including invoicing, billing, expense and time tracking, and payroll. However, a company can outgrow QuickBooks in terms of items within the database or the performance or complexity of the business. Businesses may consider QuickBooks to NetSuite accounting data migration at such a stage.
When is the Right Time to Switch from NetSuite to QuickBooks or Vice-versa?
Business analysis and estimation of operating costs give a fair picture of the ROI from each IT investment. But the most common indicators for considering a switch between platforms are:
- Reduced operational need
- High IT overheads
- Limited access to consultants who support the platform
- End of life or end of support by software provider
- Reduced performance, slower output or software crashes
- Running out of space, items or user licenses

Choosing The Right Accounting Software
Small to mid-sized businesses find QuickBooks products sufficient for their accounting and financial operations. However, as the business grows complex and other variables like multi-location, subsidiaries, etc., feature in the operations, a more extensive evolved ERP may be required. Depending on the budgets and availability of resources, a business may consider upgrading from QuickBooks to NetSuite and moving their accounting data.
Larger businesses that use NetSuite for accounting may find that their operations do not require a comprehensive ERP and are under-utilizing their investment. Some companies struggle to find the right resources to support their ERP infrastructure or fund the increasing maintenance cost. In such situations, it is prudent for a business to consider moving from NetSuite to QuickBooks – be it QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise or QuickBooks Online Advanced, as defined by their business needs.

2007: Britain's NAO Reviews RAF's New Maintenance ApproachJul 19, 2007 22:32 UTC
Over the past few years Britain's defense procurement went through significant reforms, especially in the area of aircraft maintenance. Platforms that are now handled under a full "future contracting for availability" full-life maintenance framework (i.e. pays for available aircraft rather than paying for spares) include CH-47 helicopters, E-3D Sentry AWACS radar surveillance aircraft, and Tornado fighters. Platforms that are using contracting for availability but are not yet through-life contracts, or are progressing via availability contracts for sub-systems etc. as they work their way up, include the RAF's Hawk trainers, Harrier jets, VC10 aerial tankers, Nimrod maritime patrol aircraft, and others. Even these partial implementations, however, have seen significant changes to maintenance arrangements and contract structures, as Britain works through the issues related to the change and implements its Defence Industrial Strategy.

The Brass City Brew made the best of its opportunities while Bethlehem's Plowboys didn't in a 4-1 Brass City win Sunday afternoon at Torrington's Fuessenich Park that made the Brew this year's Tri-State League Champions. "It's frustrating," said Bethlehem player/coach Tony Geraci, whose Plowboys have won the title five times in the last 11 years and finished second four times in that span. "We had guys on in a lot of innings." Bethlehem out-hit the Brew 10-8, but stranded 11 runners to just five left on by the Brew. Brass City, which entered the league in 2000, lost the championship series to Winsted in three games last year.
"After last year, it's nice to come back," said player/coach Sam Sirica. "Starting from nothing 10 years ago, to now, makes you feel good. Bethlehem is a quality team, and that just makes this sweeter." Just as they did a week ago, in a 3-1 Brass City win in Game One, the teams went with their aces, two of the best pitchers in the league.
For the first five innings, the aces — Brass City's Sean Keegan, a Fairfield University veteran, and Sam Iverson, a reliever in some of Eastern Connecticut State University's glory years — and their defenses, made Sunday's game look likely to go 16 innings or more. For the first three, each pitcher gave up just a single hit. Plowboy lead-off batter Eric O'Toole (3-for-3) got Bethlehem's hit in the first inning. The Brew's Mike Padovani got one in the second inning. O'Toole got as far as third base; Padovani went down in the first of Bethlehem's three double plays for the game.
Nevertheless, Geraci's and Bethlehem's frustration on offense got a good start in the fourth inning. With one out, Nick Chiovitti (2-for-3) and Bob McMahon (2-for-3) hit back-to-back singles. McMahon was out on a fielder's choice, but, with Chiovitti dancing on third, Keegan (7 innings, 1 earned run, 8 hits, 1 strikeout, 5 walks) issued a walk to Mike Johnston to load the bases, two outs. Then one more fielder's choice ended the threat. The Brew didn't feel good either when hits in the fifth inning, by Marc DiDominzio (2-for-4) and Bob Verroneau, counted for nothing thanks to another Plowboy double play.
But the Brew, who felt hampered in last year's series from the wear of making it, just before, to the Stan Musial Regionals in Albany, had all cylinders running this time and the persistence that comes with something to prove. So, with one out in the top of the sixth, three straight batters got to Iverson (9 innings, 3 earned runs, 8 hits, 8 strikeouits, 3 walks) for singles. Paul Novakowski lined the final hit to short right center to push Steve Carosella across for the game's first run. When the third Bethlehem double play erased any further Brass City chances, Novakowski's hit looked very much like a game-winner.
Nope; the Plowboys pushed through more frustration — a runner on third and a Brass City double play — in the bottom of the sixth, then came back strong in the seventh. Lead-off batter Kyle Capaldo (2-for-4) beat out a bunt. O'Toole singled him to third and Geraci hit a ball to deep center for the sac fly. At 1-1, it looked like 16 innings again.
Then two things happened to build the Brew's crown. First, Brass City found what Bethlehem so often could not: the big hit at the right time. Then, Keegan, who had shoulder surgery after his Fairfield career and did much of his pitching in pain in this series, gave way to a Post University senior, left-hander Tim McCarthy.
The big Brass City hit, in the top of the eighth, came more as a pounce, as Iverson had his game's only slight struggle with the strike zone. The first out of the inning, at the top of Brass City's order, went down to a wicked Iverson curve. Then Carosella walked in five pitches. Ironically, a high pitch to Brass City's No. 3 batter got tomahawked over the left field fence for the game-wining difference. When another walk and Bethlehem's only two errors scored Paul Novakowski, the third run of the inning was pure gravy.
Reliever McCarthy (2 innings, 2 hits, 3 strikeouts, 0 walks) made sure of that, while pushing Bethlehem's frustration to the brink. McCarthy, who throws a fastball, curve and knuckleball, had three up, three down in the bottom of the eighth. Then Capaldo poised himself for a final rally with a one-out single in the ninth. O'Toole followed with his third hit of the day. McCarthy got his second strikeout, two outs. Then an infield error extended the Plowboy hopes, loading the bases one more time. And one more time, the Brew found the right touch, while the Plowboys couldn't. McCarthy bore down for his third strikeout to leave three more Bethlehem runners on the field.
Now, with its first Tri-State League Championship plaque on the bar, the Brew's sponsor — Ordinary Joe's, in Watertown — might feel moved to change its name to something…well, a little more special.
Brass City Brew takes Tri-State League opener
Brass City, the No. 1 seed in the Tri-State Baseball League playoffs and winner of the double elimination tournament's loser's bracket, took a one-game lead over No. 2 seed Bethlehem, the winner's bracket champion, in the first game of the league's best-of-three championship series Sunday afternoon at Fuessenich Park. The 3-1 Brew win sets up another face-off next Saturday between two of the league's best pitchers, Brass City's Sean Keegan and Bethlehem's Sam Iverson.
"It's ace versus ace," grinned Bethlehem player/coach Tony Geraci, whose Plowboys got the best of the Brew in a 5-2 regular-season game, but saw Brass City hop on Iverson for two runs in the first inning on Sunday. "Those two runs in the first inning were huge; you give Sean a lead and he's not going to let it go," said Marc DiDominzio, whose complete-game pitching win over Burlington last week brought the Brew to its second championship series in two years. (Winsted won the title in three games last year.) Sunday, DiDominzio, who played shortstop at Post University (Waterbury) for four years, helped spark the Brew's bats with a first-inning RBI and a 3-for-4 day at the plate.
Battling on a day with temperatures in the '90s, both pitchers went the distance. Iverson (5 strikeouts, 2 walks), a reliever at Eastern Connecticut during several Warrior Division II World Series years, gave up three hits in the first and another three in the fourth as Brass City tacked on one more run, then sprinkled just four more hits in the game. He got the final out in the fourth inning with the bases loaded. In a game in which every thin edge counted, Keegan (5 hits, 10 strikeouts, 4 walks), who pitched four years for Fairfield University, then had rotator cuff surgery, was sharper. "The heat keeps you loose," he said. "I warmed up in the fourth or fifth and started hitting my spots."
With just one hit before the fourth inning, the Plowboys trailed just 2-0. Nick Chiovitti, Aaron Granahan and Geraci led off with three singles in a row to load the bases, nobody out. Then Bunty Ray (2-for-3) had his only bad at-bat of the day, hitting a double play ball to DiDominzio at second, as Chiovitti crossed the plate with Bethlehem's only run. A fly to right ended the Plowboys' threat. Keegan gave up just one more hit (to Ray in the seventh) in the game. It's the kind of game this serious league promised its fans — great pitching, no fielding errors and rare opportunities that either pay off or not, swinging the outcome of the game for good, then and there.
In that first inning for Brass City, for instance, Eric Gormley led off with one of just two walks from Iverson all game. With two outs, Eric Rovinetti (RBI, run scored), Paul Novakowski and DiDominzio followed with hits. DiDominzio (run scored) was the only member of the trio to get another hit. He led off the only other Brass City scoring inning, the fourth, with a single. Then Gary Novakowski and Sam Sirica (RBI double) followed with their only hits of the day. The team that makes scarce hits count the most wins. That's what the scoreboard really says in a tough game.
On the other hand, the arrangement of the championship series — the opener this Sunday, then two more games next weekend if it goes the full three — is indicative of the league's heart as well. Brew third baseman Mike Butkovic got married Saturday on the originally-scheduled date for the series opener. (Who knew that the Brew would still be playing? And what smart groom calls it a priority if they are?) And, naturally, most of Butkovic's teammates wanted to be at the wedding. The series start was shifted to Sunday. (No, Butkovic was not on hand.) So next Saturday, the aces come up again.
Brass City tops Bethlehem for Title
The Brass City Brew made the best of its opportunities while Bethlehem's Plowboys didn't in a 4-1 Brass City win Sunday afternoon at Torrington's Fuessenich Park that made the Brew this year's Tri-State League Champions. "It's frustrating," said Bethlehem player/coach Tony Geraci, whose Plowboys have won the title five times in the last 11 years and finished second four times in that span. "We had guys on in a lot of innings." Bethlehem out-hit the Brew 10-8, but stranded 11 runners to just five left on by the Brew. Brass City, which entered the league in 2000, lost the championship series to Winsted in three games last year.

On the northern slopes of the Pentadaktylos Mountains at Gomaristra, 2.2 miles (3.5km) southeast of Lapethos (Kyrenia district) at 580m a.s.l. overlooking the north coast.
Description: The dome-hall (?) structure with semi-circular apse and round arches is now in a ruinous state and only traces of its fresco decoration and apsidal narthex survive [MKE 11,133; Papageorgiou (1982b) 444].
Dating: A likely 12th-century date has been proposed on account of the style of the fresco decoration and the architecture [MKE 11, 133; Papageorgiou (1982b) 444]; Procopiou suggests a date in the second quarter of the 12th century [Procopiou (2006a) 136].

Rockbox mail archiveSubject: USB mini-B?
USB mini-B?
From: Minuk Choi <Choi.Minuk_at_verizon.net>
Date: Mon, 29 Sep 2003 00:01:02 -0400
Hey gang,
I've started to use my Archos Unit as a portable 20 HDD to keep files from home and work in sync. I've learned that I need another USB cable, since I've forgotten the cable either at home or at work a few times. I was wondering, if anyone had any recommendations on which brand to get? I kinda would prefer a longer cable.. the cable that came with the Archos is a little on the short side.

Verizon Communications Inc (VZ.N) on Friday cut its annual profit forecast after adding fewer monthly phone subscribers than expected in the second quarter, in a sign that red-hot inflation has begun impacting its business.
Chief Executive Hans Vestberg said customer additions took a significant hit from inflation at a time when the carrier is grappling with intense competition in the U.S. telecom sector.
Verizon shares fell as much as 6% to nearly five-year low of $44.64. They closed down about 3% lower in the prior session when rival AT&T (T.N) warned some of its customers were delaying bill payments. AT&T shares were trading nearly 2% lower.
U.S. companies are bracing for a slowdown in consumer spending in the second half of the year as four-decades-high inflation makes customers more price-conscious in the world's largest economy.
"As market leader, Verizon has more to lose," Paolo Pescatore, telecom analyst at PP Foresight said, adding it will likely be a challenging year for the company.
Verizon raised prices for its plans in June by way of additional charges, which was over and above its already pricier plans. On Friday, it warned it may need to raise prices again if costs continue to climb.
"Its bread-and-butter business is under increasing pressure," Pescatore said.
The wireless carrier added only 12,000 net phone subscribers who pay a monthly bill in the quarter ended June 30 compared with FactSet estimates of 150,800 additions.
The company expects 2022 adjusted earnings per share in the range of $5.10 and $5.25 per share, lower than the prior outlook of $5.40 to $5.55.
Finance chief Matt Ellis said higher level of promotional activities to increase subscriber base was another reason for the cut in profit expectations.
Shares of rival T-Mobile US (TMUS.O), which offers cheaper plans, rose nearly 1%. "T-Mobile is in pole position in appealing to cost-conscious customers. Others are playing catch-up," analyst Pescatore said.

NJPW star Rocky Romero was a recent guest on Wrestling Observer Live to hype up this weekend's NJPW Resurgence show in Los Angeles, a card that features a number of top bouts including Lance Archer defending the IWGP United States championship against Hiroshi Tanahashi in the main event.
Another marquee matchup on the show is top IMPACT talent Moose taking on Tomohiro Ishii. During his interview Romero revealed how that matchup came together.
I heard that [Tomohiro] Ishii was coming and somebody asked me to reach out to somebody at IMPACT because they'd like to get a big name and reached out to Scott D'Amore and Scott D'Amore said, 'Moose really wants to be a part of [NJPW] STRONG and wants to be a part of New Japan U.S.' so, I said, 'That sounds like that would be cool to me. Let me ask the office' and the office said they would love that and there it is and it's kind of a dream match, especially now.
Romero's full interview can be found here.

The recently released U.N. climate report isn't anything that wasn't already known. In his book 'The Final Warning' James Lovelock- the author of the Gaia hypothesis said that it is already to late to save the planet from becoming preponderantly desertified and people should be planning to live like African ants in large hives. He wrote that the U.S.A. would largely become a desert and just a few places would be green. What is obvious is that in spite of happy Biden administration comments about the optimism they have to overcome challenges, the nation is as likely to respond to the challenge of global heating as well as it has to Covid 19 or actually, less so.
Politicians are largely not competent to design an ecological economic reform policy. It it worse than the challenge to Bill Clinton while President of being able to walk and chew gum at the same time; politicians would need the social capacity to get voters to go along with their plan to radical transition the U.S. economy to one of long term environmental sustainability right away, if they had an idea of what such a plan would look like- and they don't.
The Democratic party is interested more in expanding the number of voters from Latin America through illegal immigration and Republicans have governors that are global warming and covid 19 skeptics. Democrats want to increase female wealth and affluence globally and that unrealistic desire accelerates non-sustainability. The Biden administration is perpetrating another Vietnam flight phenomena in Afghanistan and perhaps rightly so since it is an advocate for the extremely divisive homosexual agenda and homo marriage policy that motivates Muslims to attack the symbols of decadence and depravity. The rich own the broadcast media that is a sycophant for corporate expansion globally and a corrupter of democracy subverting independent political developments as well as social media censorship and manipulation of search engine listings.
The Democrat Party under Speaker Pelosi has become a one-party system to the limit of its ability forcing every issue possible without consent from opposition. A half trillion dollars for day care may reduce global warming and mass extinctions of course, and the moon may provide green cheese for all chess analysts to munch on, yet if that doesn't work how will 4 or 5 trillion dollars of additional debt fix global warming?
Perhaps the Von Musk move to Mars program is the one idea that works that may actually provide a refuge for the most rich to retreat to if a natural final solution of planetary war to solve an intractable political issue with irrationality happens…this time the irrational final solution would be mass human decimation through biological war. Luckily the world's a test tube of biological PhD experimentation with so many recent graduates. Surely the excellent politics one has experienced since the Reagan administration left office will give everyone a reason for hope, soma, and happy drugs to ignore the problems. I am not optimistic about the world's prospects for avoiding critical blunders and the common irrational method of default politics when rationality doesn't work. I wish people ordinarily were smarter than they are; maybe they can be more like the Inca building infrastructure on large scale that can solve environmental challenges.
Building a water desalination canal network along the Mexican border might provide millions and millions of gallons of fresh water to help reduce desertification. It is actually possible with siphons and solar power. No one in D.C. wants to take up anything besides investing in Wall Street and cutting taxes though, realistically.

Can't Remove SharePal ads? This page includes detailed ads by SharePal Removal instructions!
The SharePal program is a parasite. It falls under the Adware category. This intruder is barely tolerable. It uses aggressive marketing strategies to turn you into an easy target. Once inside your system, it wastes no time and wreaks utter havoc. The good news is that the adware cannot corrupt your entire system. Yet, it still infects all installed web browsers. The SharePal adware injects various adverts on every website you load. It is also capable of redirecting your web traffic to sponsored platforms. This intruder interferes with your every online activity. Every time you click on its ads, it gets paid. Thus, it doesn't limit its influence. The adware drowns its victims in a sea of coupons, discounts, and great deals. It doesn't matter whether you type a search inquire or watch an online video, the adware is always there to annoy you. Do not put up with this situation. The SharePal adware makes a terrible companion. It knows no boundaries. The parasite tends to get more and more aggressive with each passing day. Given enough time, it gets out of control. Do not wait for this scenario to unfold. Get back in control of your web browser. Remove the adware immediately. Locate its lurking spot and hit that delete button.
How did I get infected with?
The SharePal adware cannot hack your computer. It uses trickery to sneak in. To succeed, the parasite relies on your cooperation. It uses bundles, fake updates, and spam emails to trick you into installing it unintentionally. One second of carelessness is all it needs to succeed. Don't make its job easier. The key to a secure and infection-free computer is caution. All you should do is to keep your guard up. Especially when you are about to install a new program. When available, always select the Advanced/Custom setup option. Many software developers attach extras to the payload files of their apps. More often than not, these extras are parasites like the SharePal adware. You can prevent the extras from installing under the advanced setup. If you use the standard option, however, these additional apps will get installed without your explicit approval. Don't allow this! Always make sure you know what you are approving on board! Read the terms and conditions/end user license agreement (of course, you can use an online EULA analyzer to speed up this process). If you detect anything out of the ordinary, abort the installation immediately. The SharePal adware, just like many other parasites, prays on your carelessness. Don't provide it! Be vigilant instead. Always do your due diligence!
Why is this dangerous?
The SharePal adware is not a parasite you should neglect. Act against the intruder as soon as possible. If you don't, there will be terrible consequences. The adware is not just annoying. It is quite dangerous. This intruder spies on you. It monitors your browsing related data. The adware knows your every online step. Even the Incognito mode of your browser cannot hide you. It's just a matter of time before the parasite discovers something sensitive. The SharePal adware analyzes your every online action and uses the collected data against you. On paper, if you enter "sneakers" into a search engine, you'll get ads for sports shoes. In practice, however, you get bombarded with countless unreliable ads. The SharePal adware has no security mechanism. It doesn't verify its ads. Neither does it check the advertisers behind them. Numerous crooks take advantage of the parasite and its resources. They use the adware to spread corrupted content. The cooks show you what you want to see. Yet, when you click, bad things happen. An unverified advert may arise unwarranted expectations at best. At worst, it will redirect you to scam and phishing websites. If you are very unlucky, you may end up on infected websites too. Do not risk it! The SharePal adware has no place on your computer. Remove it the first chance you get! The sooner it's gone, the better!

What are the services provided by the Network Layer?
Network layer is the third layer in the OSI model of computer networking. Packet forwarding including routing through routers and quality of service management are done by the network layer.
Nature of the service
The transport layer at the host side receives the service provided by the network layer. But the transport layer resides in the hosts while the network layer resides in the subnet.
We know the subnet is a collection of routers which consists of only the bottom three layers. Hence, we can say that the service provided by the network layer to the transport layer is more effective, than the service provided by the subnet to the hosts.
Generally, the network layer provides two classes of well-defined services, namely connectionless and connection oriented services to the numerous nodes or hosts communicating through subnet.
The different services provided by the network layer are as follows −
Connectionless communication
Network layer provides the facility of connection less transfer of data from one end to another. In connectionless communication one does not have to build a session with the receiver; it can be done at any time and no acknowledgement is required in this type of communication and this is possible because of the network layer.
Host Addressing
Every host in the network must have a unique address which determines where the host is located in the network. Every address on the internet is known as an ip address and this ip address is addressed by the network layer.
Message Forwarding
The message forwarding is another service provided by the network layer. Here, many networks are partitioned into sub networks and connected to other networks for wide area communications.
Network layer uses specialised hosts known as routers which are used to forward packets between different networks. The network layer also responds to service requests from the transport layer and issues service requests to the data link layer.
The services provided by the Network Layer are diagrammatically represented as follows −
