Get away from me
By Blackwood Springs Pty Ltd.
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Personal mobile security alarm that you can activate when you feel in danger or threatened. The App launches a whistle and shouts out "Help. I am being attacked. Get away from me." At the same time the App lets up to 5 family and/or friends know you need help and sends them your exact location via Google maps. There is an option to silence the message if required.
You can customise the message for different circumstances, for example, "Someone is following me, please come and get me." Or "I am on my way home should be there soon."
I would love your feedback as to how to improve this App, so please leave a review.

Institution drive the BUS
Retail jsu chase the fume of the bus.
So GS is driving this Bus into the $5 ditch + margin call to force retail to sell.
Days + weeks later, MNKD can drive backup.
Yes Build it up, Pump it up for 200+ years.
Took the money off the gold standard in 1970's, then pump it some more.... until it POPS.
Rich becomes filthy rich, the middle class becomes poorer ( little raise but full of inflation since 1970s).
The industrialists found new slaves in Asia + Latin America and moved manufacturing away from high cost areas like US + Europe.
The masses are disenfranchised, alternatives to capitalism starts to take roots, socialism in health care is setting in, soon education, welfare, food production and everything else are heading into collective mass one-size-for-all model like WalMart, Target and dollar stores...... socialism then communism Western style is upon us.
That is why Feds is talking up interest rate to prevent the dike from breaking.
*Anemic Wage in jobs created and long term out of work excluded from Labor report.
*PPI and CPI are dropping last 3 + months = Weak demand
*Energy prices dropping like a rock = Weak economic activities
Yellen is like that little Dutch girl, stick her fingers into the crack trying to stop the inevitable RUN ON DUMPING US TREASURY BILLS.
You can only force people to eat bad fermenting rotten meat for so long, eventually they will throw up.
Gold is about to POP between eroding Euros, collapsing yen and over blown US$$.
Gold will be the safe heaven in the coming months and years.
Quant Easing is about to become Exponential Pain up the ying yang.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
China, America's largest foreign creditor, cut its holdings of U.S. debt for a fourth month in December, based on the latest figures from the Treasury Department. Its stake of $1.24 trillion was the smallest in almost two years.
Russia has also been "trimming" since 2008.
They are losing faith in the tidal wave of QE money flooding the world.
Gold is about to rise as dollar pump job is about to run its course.
Little over a month later they are down 25%..
What did Marrone show them to convince them $4.4 was a good deal?
Was it a pending offer to buy AUY or / and huge ramp up on gold production in 2015?
Sentiment: Buy
Excessive selloff on gold miners because fear of 1/4% rate hike.
Greece most likely will default and exit EU in the coming days and weeks.
The gold might strating to shine again.
Fear is extrmely high, no one is pounding the table to buy, margin calls everywhere in gold mining stocks.
May be Feds is aware of the quality of jobs and the low pay rate in newly created jobs.
Also Feds is aware the super strong dollar is hurtuing exports, so a rate raise will damage export businesses.
One thing seems certain, gold is dirt cheap, strong dollar is hurting exporters and Greece won't be bailed out by anyone.
Sentiment: Buy
MOst do not believe economy is healthy and sustainable.
Employment is propped up by service jobs and lower pay jobs, not a strength in propelling economy upwards.
Market reacted to potential rate raise by selling off.
The dollar will be weakened if rate is raised amidst an unsustainable growth recovery.
Then gold price will rise which is good for gold miners.
Many disappointed post earnings slide in 2014.
May be it is better to wait after earnings report discount to buy in.
CEO seems to enjoy thrashing his stock price with weak guidance and weak earnings report.
If that is not enough, he diluted the shares while the stock was threading water near the bottom.
AUY is only a buy after a 20% haircut from trading range top.
Sentiment: Hold
GS is the Real Terrorist that destroy avg Joe's stock return.
ISIS has nothing on GSis---- the amount of damage done to avg american investors..
Kingdom to maintain oil policy but oil up 2% after news.
The Kingdom policy is not always cohesive within the family.
Expect change after January.
Power struggle within family to follow.
Oil give away does not last forever.
Russians and shale oil producers will likely benefit from impending uptrend in pricing.
Sentiment: Buy
Didn't know he was the founder of Yamana.
I will look at Marrone in a very different light from now on.
Wish his $250M pay off 10 folds in the coming quarters.
Sentiment: Buy
Many see the $250M equity sale as a negative thing, but I suspect Marrone is trying to really ramp up production and need the additional cash to do it.
At $5M / year compensation, Marrone is likely not a irresponsible lunatic as a CEO, we will hear the guidance in the ER report for 2015 and how the $250M will translate into sales and profit.
In Europe country by country will peel off the Euro. China RMB is the big play in the coming months.
Imagine the tidal wave of events leading up to the eventual divorce from the dollar.
Sentiment: Buy
We are in a currency war.
Everyone except US and Swiss has devalued.
If US wants to compete in the export market and protect jobs, it will devalue too- sooner than we think.
Sentiment: Buy
Peter Schiff begins to seem very credible.
Especially when US constantly jabs at China from all angles and US QEs probably for the 4th time later this year. Also to protect RMB value and strong purchasing power if it is depegged from the weakening US$.
That will send gold into a much higher stratosphere in sustained fashion.
Sentiment: Buy
Great steal at $6-$6.1
Waiting on EU quant Ease size this week.
US$ looks overdue for a correction.
Time to bring in ACTIVIST investor to call out Marrone.and company.
While oil price crashed, Marrone just guided All In Cost to be near $825/oz as if oil price savings (20% of operation costs) is immaterial to AIC.
Having Marrone at the helm watch all the cash and cost management,and we pay him $5M /year to sabbotage AUY stock price.... wonder if he is trustwortyh to not benefit from all the deals he is cutting without oversight (BOD is asleep with Marrone).
First - While Gold price was crashing in Oct Nov Dec, in the midst of it he HAMMERED the stock price by $1 BILLION charge off which he might have been able to phase it in over 3 or 4 quarters.
Second- whoever the buyers behind the $250M equity buy in could have bought the stocks on the open market Under $4.5 , may be average cheaper than $4.43/share they have paid.
Marrone really don't need the cash at this very moment while the stock price is trying to recover from the crash.
Marrone is clearly aiding short / Naked hedge to weaken AUY stock price.
Where is the BOD oversight????
Are they all in bed with Marrone??
Where exactly did you read the Feb 3rd back out date?
Most of us did not see such info in the press release.
Sentiment: Buy
1 day ago, $250M Smart Money bought at $4.43/share
They over paid 15% already or we are entitled to a 15% discount?
Buy with both fists !
Sentiment: Buy

Dorman Red Raspberry plants
I bought two Dorman Red Raspberry plants at a local nursery and they have the strangest blossoms on them that I've ever seen. My sister's red raspberry plants had regular white blossoms on them, but these have no petals and there's pink in the center. Do they have some kind of disease to make blossoms like that? Or, are they failed berries? It seems very early for them to have tried to make berries, but I know nothing of this variety of red raspberry. The nursery doesn't really know much about their plants, I've found, so I can't get any answers from them.
Dorman raspberries are supposed to grow this far South, so I got them and the girls at the nursery said that people really like them and they do well here, so I don't know what to think.
Can anyone clue me in as to what's going on with my plants?
I'll get my husband to do that if he has the time.
I looked more closely this afternoon and the pink area are tiny petal-looking things which are over centers that look like they should have pollen on them. I'm watching other buds now to see what happens with them.
Supposedly, Dorman is supposed to do well here.
I did some search and found pictures of Dorman rasberry flowers. They look exactly like yours. Nothing to worry.
Here is a link that might be useful: Dorman rasberries
Well, Dang, Olga!
Now all I have to look forward to is tasteless raspberries on vigorous, pretty plants.
Well, it was worth a try.
All those blossoms I show in the pictures dried up without fruit forming, so I just kept watering the plants and talking to them.
Yesterday, I looked at the one plant and it had three berries on it! The newer blossoms that are coming on the plants are different. They are round and plump and those are the ones that the three berries came from.
Whoopie-dooo, huh? LOL!
At least I have my two Arapaho thornless blackberries that are ripening, except they are probably tasteless, too?
I bought Dorman Red about 8 years ago in zone 9. I had trouble getting much production. I had them in a somewhat shady area and did not water much. We moved to zone 8 three years ago and I transplanted them to a full sun spot and watered regularly. 5 plants produced about 10 gallons last year! I trellised them on cattle panel and they are sending out 10-15 ft vines! I think I'll have more this year. They vines on the ground do root and they will produce in a couple years. Do not cut vines back like regular bush raspberries.

Leaving the slum, then to Caspar (camping)
I've never been so happy to leave a hotel. This place was a DUMP.
We stopped by Point Reyes national park for some (more) good views, but mostly just enjoyed the scenery along route 1.
The dogs are doing well, as is the camper. We're happy Caspar is getting the help he needs, but sad to see him go.
We found a neat campsite with a beautiful ocean view (Caspar beach rv park), and settled for the night. Campfire w/ BBQ and beer. Life is good.
Playing in the woods
... multi story Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox out front. It's a tourist attraction that includes a walk through some redwoods and spruce trees of note. In the past decade they've added a gondola ride up the mountain. Yes, it's touristy....but not cheezy like "Legend of Bigfoot" that we saw later in the day. Admission was 15 bucks......so we splurged.

We all walked down to the beach and had a happy hour as we watched people in kayaks and surfboards out in the water. There were also some abalone divers out there as well. This evidently is the season for free-diving for abalone.
Robert bought some wood from the Campground hose , I collected driftwood pieces and we all went back and had a very nice fire, dinner and caught up on news of each other.
Day 5 - Gold Beach to Mendocino
... Then we left US101 highway to take the coast road highway 1 - which we think was the original 101. This did mean we had to cross a mountain to get there - very twisty, hairpin bends, steep gradients. We saw loaded logging trucks also on the same route. I'm glad we weren't going up behind one. Then the coast again which by now was very misty. Apparently if there was no mist the Redwoods ...

I try to keep a good balance between work and the time I spend with my family and friends. I have grown to take nothing for granted! I am a doting mother of a five year old son. He is the joy of my life. I am looking for someone who is loyal and honest to the most important people in his life. I am looking for a relationship where we bring out the best in each other, trust each other and help each other grow to be the best person we can possibly be.….someone who will enjoy having me in his life as much as I will enjoy having him in my life. Someone who makes my heart skip a beat every time I think of him :) I personally feel meeting in person is the best way to find out if we are a match. Good luck with your search!

Probably the biggest story of this past season's NCAA Tournament was Kevin Ware's freak injury in the Elite Eight game vs Duke. After jumping to defend a three, Ware landed awkwardly and leg actually snapped, resulting in one of the most gruesome sights you will ever see on a basketball court. Ware is back up and shooting around, and today he decided to post a photo of his leg scar on Instagram: It's a large one, which is obviously to be expected. We're just glad that his recovery is going well.

WASHINGTON, PA, Feb. 2, 2015 -- Appomattox vaulted to the lead from post 9, then cruised to a comfortable harness racing victory in Monday's $22,500 Winners Over $10,000 Life/Preferred Handicap Trot at The Meadows. Appomattox had been taking on tough fields at The Meadowlands and more than holding his own. The 6-year-old, battle-tested son of Yankee Glide-Courtney Hill had little trouble overcoming his difficult post position and scoring in 1:55.1, two lengths better than the rallying Classicality. The pocket-sitting TSM Photo Bugger held third. Ron Burke trains Appomattox, who now boasts $456,398 in career earnings, for Reima Kuisla Stable. Mike Wilder and Burke each fashioned a four-bagger on the 14-race card while Tony Hall enjoyed a triple. The Meadows Racetrack & Casino
Freehold, NJ --- Harness racing trainer Erv Miller hopes Manofmanymission's younger brother is growing ready to take on the assignment of facing stakes-level trotters. Team Six, a 5-year-old son of stallion Yankee Glide out of the mare Armbro Vanquish, has won 12 of 35 career races and earned $136,300 so far in his career. He is a full brother to Manofmanymissions, who also was trained by Miller and won the 2010 Breeders Crown for 2-year-old male trotters and the 2011 Kentucky Futurity on his way to $1.21 million in lifetime earnings. Last week, Team Six won the B1/A1 Handicap at the Meadowlands by a half-length over Lindy's Tru Grit in 1:53.1 at odds of 50-1. Appomattox, the favorite, was third and Spider Blue Chip fourth. On Friday, Team Six and driver Marcus Miller will start from post five in the Classified/FFA Handicap at the Big M. The field also includes Modest Prince, Odds On Amethyst, Coffeecake Hanover, Take My Picture, Lindy's Tru Grit and Melady's Monet. "He's in pretty good company right now, so we'll have to see how he gets along," Miller said about Team Six, who was purchased for $200,000 at the 2011 Lexington Selected Sale. "That's why we kept him, because we hoped he would come on to be an aged trotter; that he could compete at the stakes level against older competition. "Off and on he shows that kind of ability. I think he's just coming into his own a little bit right now." Team Six was unraced at age 2 and won three of 13 starts at 3. Last season, he won seven of 19 races and established his career mark of 1:52.4. "He's starting to come around, I hope," Miller said. "He's a pretty heavy horse. Hopefully as he gets a little older, he'll get along a little better. "He stays a lot sounder now than he did as a young horse. As a younger horse we had a little trouble keeping him sound. I think (being a heavier horse) was part of it. I think that's what kept him from being a good 2-year-old. He was just a little too immature, a little too heavy boned, to really develop good as a young horse." Team Six is owned by Peggy Hood, Mystical Marker Farms, Paymaq Racing and Jorgen Jahre Jr., which is some of the same group that ownedManofmanymissions. "We had good luck with that horse and those guys wanted to take a shot at the same family," Miller said. "I'm pretty optimistic that (Team Six) could come on and be a bit of a stakes horse for us. He's not the kind of horse that has to have a perfect trip, although that's what he got last week. But he's a big strong horse where I think he can endure a little work." Miller knows Team Six will have to raise his game to compete at the top level in the older trotting division, but he's hopeful the horse can find a place among that group. "There's room for them if you've got one that's good enough," Miller said. Now it's up to Team Six to accept that mission. By Ken Weingartner, Harness Racing Communications
Batavia, NY---As the 2014 racing season winds to a close at Batavia Downs, the Upstate New York Chapter of the United States Harness Writers Association would like to recognize the top equine athletes who competed there this year. BZ Glide was named Trotter of the Meet, Fireyourguns was the Pacer of the Meet and Bazooka Terror was named the Outstanding Distaff Performer of either gait. BZ Glide (1:56.4H $116,957) was dominant in the Open trot class this year, winning seven times at the top level. In his 14 starts at the meet he earned $40,582 and tied his lifetime mark of 1:56.4. BZ Glide likes to come from behind and he plied his trademark move in every victory this year, providing local fans with many exciting finishes. The 5-year-old son of Yankee Glide-Bloomer Zoomer is owned by Mike Caprio who also drove him in every start. Caprio's wife Alana trains BZ Glide. Fireyourguns (1:48.0S $220,121)garnered the most Open pace victories and sported a gaudy win percentage in the process. In only eight Batavia starts, Fireyourguns won five times (.625) with a best win time of 1:53.1 in those starts. Mike Caprio also drove Fireyourguns in each one of his local efforts for trainer Terrence McClory, who owns the 5-year-old son of American Ideal-Villa Hanover with Jennifer and Robert Lowe. Fireyourguns was also named Pacer of the Meet at Batavia Downs in 2013. Bazooka Terror (1:52.1F $147,007)lived up to her name this year, terrorizing the local pacing mares on the track since she arrived. She hit the board 13 times out of 16 starts with five wins, six seconds and two thirds, amassing $40,582 in purses all in the Open mare's class. She had a best local clocking of 1:53.4 and was teamed each week by her regular driver, the Downs leader Kevin Cummings, for owner Leonard Segall. During the meet, the 5-year-old daughter of Western Terror-Lucky Liz was trained by both Leonard Segall and James Clouser Jr. The connections of all three horses will receive their awards in the winner's circle at Batavia Downs on Saturday night (Dec. 6) during the UNY-USHWA Night of Distinction.

A field of eight upper-level conditioned trotters squared off in the featured event at Harrah's Philadelphia on a cold Thursday afternoon. The wagering public put their support behind 4 Leaf Racing's Smoother Ride. The son of Yankee Glide was coming off of an impressive victory against slightly easier competition last time out. He wasted no time getting into the action, clearing the lead just beyond a :27.3 quarter. It was short lived however, as 3-year-old It Really Matters (Brett Miller) quickly moved up to take the lead. It stayed that way until the top of the stretch, when Smoother Ride (Geo. Napolitano Jr.) vacated the pocket, and brushed on by to win, stopping the clock in 1:54. It Really Matters finished second, while And Heez Perfect (Dave Miller) finished third. Smoother Ride ($2.60) is trained by John Mc Dermott. by Mike Bozich, for Harrah's Philadelphia
Russell Williams, vice-president of the famous nursery Hanover Shoe Farms and a director on the boards of many of harness racing's top organizations, and Charles Keller III, who carried on the tradition of his father's famous Yankeeland Farm and also continues to serve the sport on many of its top organizations' boards, have been announced as the finalists for the 2014 Stan Bergstein-Proximity Award, it has been announced by the United States Harness Writers Association (USHWA). After the various chapters of USHWA submitted nominations for the award, the highest honor USHWA bestows based on voting only by its members and given for outstanding achievement in/service to the sport, the nominees were sent to the Association's directors, who voted to winnow down the candidates to the top two. Williams and Keller will now be voted on by the entirety of USHWA during the annual Dan Patch Awards balloting honoring the year's stars, both equine and human; that balloting will be conducted in early December. Williams, the grandson of Hanover's founder Lawrence Sheppard, plays a major part in the operation of the world's leading Standardbred-producing farm, where he keeps his own small but select band of broodmares (he is the breeder of the million-dollar-winning top three-year-old colt Nuncio). He is also vice chairman of the U.S. Trotting Association, the sport's supervisory organization, and a trustee of the American Horse Council and the Harness Racing Museum. Williams is also a noted "equine philanthropist," financing the possibility of many Standardbreds being able to live out their lives with dignity, including retired Hanover broodmares. Keller, the son of noted Yankees baseball player "King Kong" Keller, took over operation of Yankeeland Farms, which his father established, in 1990 until the farm's closing in 2006. The farm bred two Hambletonian winners, Muscles Yankee (1998) and Yankee Paco (2000), and it also bred Yankee Blondie, the dam of 2009 winner Muscle Hill, along with countless other divisional champions. It has produced the outstanding sires Yankee Glide and Yankee Cruiser, and has been the cradle of four Breeders Crown winners Keller is the chairman of the executive committee of the Hambletonian Society, a trustee of the Harness Racing Museum, and a former director of the U. S. Trotting Association. The Bergstein/Proximity winner, along with the awards for the best of 2014, will be given at USHWA's annual Dan Patch Awards dinner on Sunday, February 22, 2015, at the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Orlando at SeaWorld; more details, including on accommodations, will be forthcoming soon.

After being involved in a series accident in the seventh race at Pocono Downs Wednesday, harness racing driver George Napolitano, Jr. recovered quickly from his hospital visit to make the journey to Harrah's Philadelphia and win two of the three divisions in the co-feature trots and a total of five races on the program.. The three divisions of the mid-conditioned level trot headlined the card on a rainy Thursday afternoon from Harrah's Philadelphia, each going for a purse of $17,000. In the first division, it was 4 Leaf Racing's Smoother Ride (Geo. Napolitano Jr.) with a front-end victory. The son of Yankee Glide quarter-brushed past early leader (and eventual second place finisher) Muscolo (Tim Tetrick) just after the quarter pole. From that point, he never looked back, splashing to a two length victory in 1:55.3. Hoosier Park invader Time Will Tell All (Corey Callahan) emerged first-over from the three-hole past three-quarters, but flattened out to finish third. Smoother Ride ($2.40) picked up his fifteenth victory of the year for trainer John Mc Dermott. In the second division, it was Howard Jacobs' Political Desire (Geo Napolitano Jr.) going gate-to-wire for the victory. The 8-year-old son of Tom Ridge was well-rated the first half (58.1) and had plenty left in the tank for the stretch drive. He went on to win by a length and a quarter, stopping the timer in 1:56. Wind Neath My Feet (Marcus Miller) finished a game second in his debut for the Jake Huff barn, while Way Outta Here (Andrew McCarthy) rallied for third. Political Desire ($3.40) was one of three training wins for Kevin Carr. The gelding is one win away from notching his 40th career victory. The third and final division went to J&T Silva Stables' Omnipotent (Andrew McCarthy). The daughter of Donato Hanover laid off the early battle, which saw Il Mago (Daryl Bier) and Bastille (Andy Miller) exchange leads. Omnipotent (8.40) worked out a solid second-over trip, and was able to out close the leaders in the final steps, winning by a neck, stopping the clock in 1:56.2. Il Mago had to settle for second, while Bastille faded to third. Driver George Napolitiano Jr., who was unseated in a drive Wednesday night at Pocono Downs, had five winners on the card, maintaining his lead in the driver standings. Live racing returns Friday afternoon with a first post of 12:40 PM. Mike Bozich
The 2014 Ontario Sires Stakes Grassroots regular season for two-year trotting fillies came to a close on Tuesday night (September 9) at Mohawk Racetrack as the Campbellville harness racing oval played host to six $18,000 divisions. Sires Kadabra and Deweycheatumnhowe dominated the action with Kadabra picking up a trio of winners and Deweycheatumnhowe grabbing two credits. Magical Lass was the first winner for Kadabra as she took the opener in 1:59.1 for driver Paul MacDonell. She swept from third to first prior to the 1:30.1 three-quarters and then held sway through the lane to prevail by half a length over public choice Mass Rail (Trevor Henry).

Richard "Nifty" Norman trains Magical Lass, who is the first foal out of the Cantab Hall mare Priceless Lass, for co-owner/breeder Mel Hartman of Ottawa and co-owner R A W Equine Inc. of Burlington, Ontario. Magical Lass broke her maiden in her fifth attempt, and she has now earned $11,875. The Murmuring Pan then made it a "Kadabra Daily Double" as she won the second race in 1:58.2 with Hall of Famer Steve Condren in the bike. The Murmuring Pan made a first-over move into the lead at the 1:00 half and didn't look back from there on her way to a five and a quarter length decision. Giona (Wayne MacLean) was the runner-up and Desis Dream (Steve Byron) nabbed third. Paul Reid trains The Murmuring Pan for owner/breeder Peter Pan Stables Inc. of Pepper Pike, Ohio. She is now two-for-four in the win column with earnings of $18,000. Both of her wins have come in Grassroots competition as she also clicked at Mohawk on July 31. The Murmuring Pan is the second foal out of $448,000 earner Epangeline (Conway Hall). The final Kadabra winner was Wing Flash, who got up out of the pocket in the stretch to win the fifth Grassroots flight in 1:57.3 for trainer/driver Wayne Henry. Stay In Touch (Randy Waples), the leader at the head of the lane, had to settle for second and Hape (Riina Rekila) finished third.

The dam is a half-sister to the likes of millionaire Armbro Keepsake. As for Deweycheatumnhowe, his initial siring triumph came with Tymal Illbthere (Chris Christoforou) in the third section. She followed the cover of divisional point standings leader Summers Jewel (Mario Baillargeon) and then got around her late in the mile to win by a neck in 1:57.1. Muscle Kit (Randy Waples) was third, more than 14 lengths behind the top two finishers. Erv Abdulov trains Tymal Illbthere for co-owner/breeder Tymal Farms of Oldcastle, Timothy Varey of London, and Shawn Dixon of London, Ontario. Tymal Illbthere won for the first time from six trips behind the gate, and she has now pocketed $37,660. She's the first foal out of the Kadabra mare Ill Be There ($398,603), a six-time winner in OSS competition during her racing career. Solar Sister provided Deweycheatumnhowe with his other tally as she rallied from sixth at three-quarters to take the fourth division by a neck in 1:58.1. Magic Shelley (Trevor Henry) was up for second and Railee Priti (Steve Byron) collected third. Gregg McNair trains Second Sister, who has two triumphs from six starts and a bankroll of $29,160, for owner Jarold Hawks of Jeddo, Michigan. Bred by Diamond Creek Farm LLC., Second Sister was purchased for $32,000 at the 2013 Lexington Selected Yearling Sale. She's the seventh foal out of the Yankee Glide mare Sister Sammy, and Second Sister is a half-sister to the likes of $210,000 earner Unshakeable. Second Sister also won in the Grassroots Series on July 15 at Mohawk. The other winner on the night was Bistrobistro Taj (Rick Zeron). Competing in the nightcap, Bistrobistro Taj popped the pocket to take command past the :27.3 opening quarter . She then reached the half in :58.1 and the three-quarters in 1:28.2 before she kicked away to win by three and three-quarters lengths in 1:57.3. Mets Life (Mario Baillargeon) was next, followed by Judy The Beauty (Bob McClure). Zeron also trains Bistrobistro Taj, a filly from the first crop of former Breeders Crown champion Pilgrims Taj, for owner 9215 6447 Quebec Inc. of Montreal, Quebec. Bistrobistro Taj, who was bred by Gestion Belvidere Inc., was successful for the second time from five starts, and she has now banked $58,250. Bistrobistro Taj, who also prevailed in Grassroots action on July 15 at Mohawk before she stepped up to take on Gold foes in her next few attempts, is the second foal out of the Angus Hall mare Freda Hall.

Driver Trevor Henry was the star of the show on Saturday night at Hanover Raceway as he won five of the six $18,000 Ontario Sires Stakes Grassroots Series events for two-year-old male trotters that were staged and added an overnight victory to give him a total of six triumphs on the ten-race program. Henry teamed up with trainer Paul Reid for a pair of his wins. That duo struck for the first time in the third division with Snapshot Springs, who led through fractions of :31, 1:04.1, and 1:34.4 on his way to a 2:04.3 victory, and they were back for another win photo after Olympic Son overcame an early break and a first-over trip to win the nightcap by half a length in 2:03.1. Snapshot Springs, a Striking Sahbra gelding, is a homebred for Rick and Regina Beinhauer of Venetia, Pennsylvania. He has won half of his six starts this year, with all his victories coming in Grassroots company, and he has earned $31,500. He's the eighth foal out of the S Js Photo mare Spring Photo ($246,089).

The winner is the second foal out of the Yankee Glide mare Graceful Sister ($104,714). Henry also swept the early daily double, which was comprised of Grassroots races, with Rob Roy, who led at every call on his way to a 2:03.4 tally, and Kadabrasnewrecruit, who turned a first-over journey into a 2:01.2 score. Henry then bagged the fourth split with Call Me Richard in 2:02. Rob Roy is trained by Richard Moreau for owner Mike Wassilyn of Rockwood, Ontario.

Batavia, NY---Sometimes victory is hard fought and other times it comes without effort. This week, BZ Glide cruised from second last to the winners circle in the $9,000 Open trot at Batavia Downs with nary a nudge from driver Mike Caprio. At the start of the race, Armed Dangerously (Shawn McDonough) made a break almost immediately as the rest of the field pulled away in post-position order. Dartmouth Hall (Kevin Cummings) then led the troops through a pedestrian :29.1 quarter and 1:00.1 half, where Caprio pulled BZ Glide just before that station. The 5-year-old son of Yankee Glide slowly and methodically gained ground on the leader without much urgency displayed from his driver. As the bunch hit the three-quarter pole in 1:29, BZ Glide had pulled even with Dartmouth Hall and then forged ahead from that point forward. Caprio hand-drove the gelding from there winning by a widening two-length margin in 1:58.2. The 1-2 favorite paid $3.00 to win. Sack Full of Gold (Jim McNeight) who had followed the winner second over was second and Serious George (Jack Flanigen) snuck up the rail to be third. This was the fifth win in 16 starts for BZ Glide and raised his yearly earnings to $42,605 for his owner Mike Caprio and trainer Alana Caprio. Reinsmen Ron Beback Jr., Jack Flanigen, Shawn McDonough, Jim McNeight and Drew Monti all scored driving doubles on the card. Racing resumes at Batavia Downs on Saturday night (Sept. 5) and features the $109,000 New York Sire Stakes for 2-year-old pacing colts and geldings. Post time is 6:35.

The European summer season is in full swing and there were several races in the elite UET Masters Series last week – as the grand final looms next month with races in France and Sweden on Saturday (Sunday morning NZT). At Bergsaker (Sweden), rising star 5-year-old Quid Pro Quo (Yankee Glide) benefitted from a patient drive from Erik Adielsson and was too strong in the straight for his elder counterparts in the 205,000 euro Group 1 Sundsvall Open Trot over 2,140 metres. He eventually won in 1'11''2 km rate with Oasis Bi (Toss Out) taking second spot from Canada B.F (Jobie Tempest). Quid Pro Quo is now 9th in the UET Masters Series, with 1450 points. At Vincennes, top jockey Franck Nivard took 8-year-old gelding Sourire de Voutré (Gazouillis ) to the lead straight from the starting shute in the Prix Camille Lepecq, a Group 2 monte worth 120,000 euros. By the time he reached the top of the hill, his opponents were struggling and he accelerated on the downhill turn into the straight to leave champion mare Roxane Griff (Tenor de Baune )and Uppercut de Manche (Neutron du Cebe) behind. This was a 2700m race and the winner covered the distance in 1'12''4 km rate (1.56.5MR). On the same card was one of the glamour events on the French calendar, the Criterium des 5 Ans, where the cream of the 5YO crop did battle over 3000m for a purse of 240,000 euros. It was Raffin again, who showed the same winning touch in the bike when he guided outsider Vabellino (5h Ouragan de Celland) to a stunning victory over Vulcain de Vandel (5h Jag de Bellouet) and Viking de Val (5h Baccarat du Pont) with favourite Very Nice Marceaux (5h Jag de Bellouet) fourth. This is a race just 200m short of the the NZ Cup distance and includes two uphill climbs (the 3000m start is the toughest at Vincennes) and was still completed in a 1'12"7kr or a mile rate of 1.57. The record set last year by Up And Quick is an unbelievable 1'11"5 or a 1.55 mile rate. The following day there were two major races in Denmark at the Charlottenlund racetrack near Copenhagen with the UET Masters Series' the Rex The Great Lopp (Group 2, 2,000 metres) was raced for 50,000 euros. It was won by the locally trained 8-year-old O'Grady (S J's Photo) who, on a slow track, was skillfully driven from the front by his trainer Flemming Jensen who stacked up the field and held off Politiken (Ens Snapshot) Obi-Wan (Ganymede), Neo Holmsminde (Valley Sentry) and US import Fawkes (SJ's Caviar). The winner trotted slow 1'14''5 km rate. On the same programme was the Group 1 Danish Trotting Derby worth 180,000 euros , which was won a few years ago by New Zealand-resident Peak, and this year's renewal saw one of Sweden's top reinsman Björn Goop guide Tumble Dust (4h, Crazed ) to victory for Tomas Malmqvist from Tano Bork (4h, Great Challenger ) and Tango Vang 4g (Lindy Lane). The slow track did not prevent a new record for the race, with the time of 1.14,7a for the 3000m journey or just over a 2 minute mile rate.

Donatomite rolled to the fastest winning time in Stallion Series action on Tuesday night at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs. There were six $20,000 divisions of the Stallion series held for 2-year-old colts and geldings on the trot. Donatomite (Donato Hanover-Malvictorian), driven and trained by Trond Smedshammer, stayed unbeaten after three career races by winning his division by 6 ¼ lengths in an impressive 1:54:4. Other Stallion Series winners on the night: Tommy Bar (Cantab Hall-Spellyuptothebar), driven by Ron Pierce and trained by Bill Popfinger, in 1:58:2; Handover The Money (Andover Hall-CR Sister Suzie), driven and trained by Francisco Del Cid, in 1:59:1; Don't Mind Me (Andover Hall-Peace Of Mind), driven and trained by Jim Raymer, in 1:56:2; Wimborne Hanover (Muscle Massive-Wherley), driven by George Napolitano Jr. and trained by William Daugherty Jr., in 1:57:1; and Finish Line (Yankee Glide-Calchips Finisher), driven and trained by Trond Smedshammer, in 1:57:4. by Jim Beviglia, for Pocono Downs
Batavia, NY---After drawing outside in the top class the last two weeks, BZ Glide finally got some post relief and driver Mike Caprio took full advantage of it to capture the $9,500 Open trot at Batavia Downs. When the man said go, Typical New Yorker (Ray Fisher Jr.) and Second hand News (Kevin Cummings) immediately fired out to challenge rail rider Absolutely Certain (Ron Beback Jr.) who quickly rebuffed their rush. Second Hand News took a seat third and Typical New Yorker was hung out to dry as the bunch rounded the quarter in :28.2 and the half in :59 flat. At that point BZ Glide pulled from sixth and started up on the outside behind the tiring Typical New Yorker and was forced to tip three-deep at the five-eighths pole. Caprio and BZ Glide pulled alongside Absolutely Certain at the three-quarters in 1:28.2 and despite furious encouragement from Beback, went right by the pair in the turn. By the time they hit the top of the stretch, BZ Glide had cleared as was trotting home a winner in 1:57.2, which was a new seasonal mark for the gelded son of Yankee Glide. The winner paid $8.80. This was the fourth win in fourteen starts in 2014 for BZ Glide and it pushed his earnings to $37,345 for the year. BZ Glide is owned by his driver, Mike Caprio and trained by Alana Caprio. Racing resumes at Batavia Downs on Wednesday (Aug. 27) and will feature three divisions of the $106,901 New York Sire Stakes for 2-year-old pacing fillies. Post time for the first race is 6:35.

Specifically, on Mnet, Genie, Olleh Music and NaverMusic, the Chinese version of 'Call Me Baby' was second on charts.
*EXO is receiving much attention, because in spite of not having release a music video or promoted in any way, and having just revealed the track, they have still managed to achieve an 'all kill' on music charts. With this record, EXO has once again proven their power as the 'global trend'.
'Call Me Baby' is a song with an addictive hook, a strong melody and attention-grabbing lyrics. It is rounded off with a strong drum beat and brass and string.
EXO will release the rest of the tracks of the album 'EXODuS' on the 30th. Starting with Mnet's Mcountdown on April 2nd, KBS TV 'Music Bank'on April 3rd, MBC Show!

I quite understand, here it is 3:41 A.M. and I have not been to bed yet! This is when my eyes start to cross and it is very easy to put in a wrong number or leave one out or even be confused by the little 2 year old Jessie Nail and the older Jessie Ray Nail who is a male and was named after her. See what I mean? After awhile all the Jessie, junior, verbal, Lee, Grover Nails just become a blurr. Yeah, I need to go to bed now lol

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|2 nights
Located in South Knoxville on a working 60 acre cattle farm. This fully remodeled and updated 3 bedroom and 2 bath house sleeps up to 10 people. Come enjoy beautiful East Tennessee on a real farm where there are endless mountain views, farming, peace and quiet, literally something for everyone! Enjoy a cup of joe on the front porch while watching the cows graze, birds chirp, or squirrels playing in the front yard. Centrally located to several area attractions such as downtown Knoxville, Neyland Stadium, Smoky Mountains, Pigeon Forge, McGee Tyson Airport, Knoxville Zoo and many many more.
This home is fully equipped with everything you may need to have a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Please join us in East Tennessee where people are welcoming and friendly and make you feel right at home with their Southern hospitality.
Just wanted to say hi and let you know how much we enjoyed staying at your place before Thanksgiving. It was the perfect place for us and an easy drive for my dad and brother to come join us. The girls loved Macy and the cows, calves, goats and chickens!!
Hope you all have a safe and wonderful Christmas!!
We arrived in the evening after a long day in the car. The farm house was a true respite waiting for us. As another reviewer noted, the pictures really do not do the house justice. Everything was super clean and there was even a decorated Christmas tree! The Price family were very friendly and gracious hosts. We really enjoyed our time at the farm- especially feeding the goats! We only wish that we could have explored the farm a little bit more but we just didn't have enough time. If we ever find ourselves in need of accommodations in Knoxville in the future, we will definitely book Price Farm Getaway!
Great place to stay, we jammed 12 people (6 couples) into this little farm house and had a great time while we attended the MU vs TN football game. We stayed two nights.
We arrived in the dark and were so amazed to find everything there and ready for us, even the coffee only needed to be plugged in. Home very "shiny" clean and nicely furnished. The hosts were awesome, even took my handicapped spouse off my hands so that I had some "down" time. What a find!!
The photos do not do this home justice. It is so spacious, beautifully appointed with antiques and rustic touches. There were more than enough beds for our girls' getaway and the huge living room with 2 couches and 3 chairs was perfect for conversation and relaxation. We even spent time together on the front porch, where there was also plenty of seating. The kitchen table is large and the kitchen is furnished with dishes, silverware, microwave, oven/stove, refrigerator and very nice sink. The entire house was spotless. The AC is powerful (the wi-fi is not) and the tv is both large and easy to navigate. The parking area behind/beside the house has room for 3-5 cars.
The Price family is gracious and accommodating. They were genuinely concerned that our visit be pleasant. There were even bottles of water waiting in the refrigerator! I felt so welcome. Although their home is next door, we had complete privacy.
Because both doors require going up steps, I don't recommend it for anyone with mobility concerns. There are occasional sounds from farm equipment, but nothing that disturbed us. Just remember to bear right when you turn off of John Sevier!
We will definitely be returning for another ladies-only weekend.
Had a great time. Grand kids loved the tour of the farm. Great hospitality and comfort.
Perfect for our needs. Several family members coming from various countries. The Price's are tops. House was immaculate.

I wasn't expecting to see her when I walked into the tiny church, but there she was, in pride of place on the wall, just above photos of the new pope and the old one.
Who is that? I asked my guide.
It's Saint Kateri, she told me. The world's only First Nations saint.
Truth be told I'd not wanted to bother with the church at all on my tour around the reserve at Wendake. I was here to find out about the Huron-Wendat, to soak up their culture at the Hotel Musée Prèmiers Nations, and so no, a catholic church was definitely not on my Must See list. But oftentimes when you're with a guide you try to be polite, so, I'd walked in from the cold, kicked the snow from my boots at the door and looked around in a disinterested kind of way before double-taking at the altar. A glowing, gorgeous native girl, her long brown hair in braids, holding a crucifix. Not what you'd expect at all.

A method for producing an article-catching strip consisting in starting from a preferably extruded strip of material provided on at least one side with longitudinal ribs and in cutting across said ribs notches defining between same substantially hook-shaped elements adapted to catch a similar strip or a piece of fabric. The invention covers also the corresponding arrangement which includes an extruding machine, a drum or the like guiding means feeding the ribbed strip to a cutting system beyond which the strip provided with its article-catching elements may be stretched in a drawing frame to more widely space said elements.
1. A method of manufacturing a strip including fastener projections to form in combination with a similar strip a closure member, the steps consisting of extruding a strip of synthetic resin having longitudinal ribs on at least one of its faces, passing said strip beneath a forming member to deform the ribs on said upper face and thereby vary the height and width of the ribs throughout the length of said strip, passing the strip partially around a roller disposed beneath a cutting member, actuating said cutting member to cut transverse spaces in said ribs, passing the strip through a heating zone and cooling the thus formed strip.
2. A method according to claim 1 including the further step of stretching said strip longitudinally so as to increase the width of said transverse spaces relative to said longitudinal ribs after passing the strip through said heating zone.
3. A method according to claim 1 wherein said cutting member includes a pair of spaced blades parallel to each other and to the axis of said roller and actuation of said cutting member forms transverse V-shaped spaces in said ribs.
4. A method of manufacturing a strip including fastener projections to form with a similar strip a closure member, the steps consisting of: extruding a strip of synthetic resin in comparatively soft condition and having a longitudinal co-extensive base portion provided with parallel spaced apart upstanding longitudinal ribs on at least one of its faces supporting the strip on an endless conveyor until it has cooled to an extent sufficient to achieve stiffness relative to its extruded soft condition, passing said strip beneath a forming member to deform the ribs on said base portion face and thereby vary the height and width of the ribs throughout the length of said strip, cutting transverse parallel spaces in said spaced apart ribs to form a plurality of adjacent spaced apart upstanding catching elements from each rib, passing the cooled strip through a heating zone and stretching said base portion longitudinally so as to increase the width of said transverse spaces relative to said catching elements, and cooling the thus formed strip.
This is a continuation of application Ser. No. 235,315, filed Mar. 16, 1972 now abandoned.
Article-catching means are known which are constituted by a strip provided on one side with a multiplicity of catching means. In a known embodiment, the strip is made of a velvet or similar fabric, the pile of which is made of synthetic resin and terminates with incurved hook-shaped ends. When such a strip engages a similar strip or else another piece of fabric, its hooked pile seizes said other strip or piece of fabric, whereby the first mentioned strip is held fast on said other strip or piece of fabric. Such hook-shaped catching means must be woven on special looms an are comparatively expensive.
The present invention has for its object a very cheap method of producing article-catching means of the type referred to.
According to the invention, said article-catching means are constituted as precedingly by a strip provided on one side with a multiplicity of catching means. Its novelty resides in that it is obtained starting from a shaped strip showing longitudinal ribs on at least one side while transverse cuts are made across the ribs.
The invention covers also an arrangement for executing said method, said arrangement including means for guiding the strip, means for cutting across the ribs of the strip and a strip-drawing frame.
The accompanying drawing illustrates by way of example a plant for the execution of the above-described improved method together with the successive stages of the production of the article-catching strip. In said drawing:
FIG. 1 is a general diagrammatic view of said arrangement;
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a portion of the strip as it passes out of an extruding machine;
FIG. 3 shows a portion of the strip as it passes underneath a cutting system adapted to notch the strip;
FIG. 4 shows the modification in shape of the strip when subjected to a hot drawing process;
FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a portion of the strip in its final condition;
FIG. 6 illustrates a cutting system provided with two blades adapted to form notches in the ribs of the strip;
FIG. 7 is a longitudinal cross-section of the strip, showing the notches obtained by means of the arrangement according to FIG. 6.
As illustrated in FIG. 1, the improved arrangement includes an extruding machine producing, by means of a die 2, a strip 3 of thermoplastic material, which strip shows (FIG. 2), when it passes out of the extruding machine, a co-extensive base portion 3a with a number of longitudinal spaced apart adjacent ribs 4 on one of its sides.
When leaving the extruding machine 1, the strip 3 is comparatively soft and, in order to prevent undesired deformations, it is carried by an endless conveyor belt 5 until it has cooled by a sufficient amount for it to show a sufficient stiffness.
Before the strip 3 reaches the end of the conveyor belt 5, it passes underneath a roller 6 the periphery of which shows areas lying at different distances from its rotary axis. Said roller exerts thus a pressure of variable intensity on the ribs 4, which produces deformations of the webs 7 of the ribs 4, whereby the height and breadth of the latter vary throughout the length of the strip 3. Such modifications in the transverse size of the ribs are not essential but they act favorably on the catching properties of the strip.
When it has left the conveyor belt 5, the strip passes over a drum 8 in contact with which it is held by two rollers 9 and 10. Said drum is located underneath a cutting system 11 provided with a flat cutting blade 12 adapted to reciprocate so as to cut notches 13 across the ribs 4 on the strip, as shown in FIG. 3. The depth of the notches is such that only the ribs are cut while the solid flat base portion 3a of the strip is not engaged by the cutting blade 12.
After it has registered with the cutting system 11, the strip 3 reaches a drawing frame 14 which includes strip-driving means constituted by the rollers 15 at the input end of the frame and further rollers 16 at the output end. The output end rollers make the strip progress by a speed about 50% higher than the speed imparted by the input rollers 15. In the actual drawing frame, the strip 3 passes first through heating means 17 which may be, for instance, an electric radiator radiating infra-red rays, and then through cooling means 18 which may be constituted simply by a chamber fed with cool air by a fan 19.
FIG. 4 shows the modified shape assumed by the strip when it has passed through the drawing frame. As illustrated, the body of the drawn out solid base portion 3a of the strip has become longer and thinner as shown at 3'. At the same time, the originally very narrow notches 3 broaden considerably so as to form a comparatively large interval 13' between the successive catching elements. There is obtained thus a strip 3 the general appearance of which is shown in FIG. 5 and wherein each element cut out of a rib 4 and then drawn apart acts as an upstanding catching element 20.
Obviously, numerous modifications may be brought to the method and means described, chiefly as concerns the shape of the rib 4, which shape defines the final shape given to the catching elements. The latter may, in particular, be in the shape of an arrow or of a harpoon, if it is desired to increase its catching capacity.
Obviously also, if it is desired to obtain a high speed for the production of the notches, the cutting system may be provided with a plurality of cutting blades operating simultaneously.
FIGS. 6 and 7 relate to a modification of the cutting system which may be used in an arrangement producing article-catching means. The strip 3 passes in this case over a drum 8 of a comparatively large size in registry with a cutting system constituted by an arm 21 carrying two cutting blades. The latter lie in two planes lying to either side of the rotary axis of the drum 8, said blades forming thus notches sloping obliquely in opposite directions with reference to the longitudinal direction of the strip 3.
The spacing between the blades 22, 23 and the speed of progression of the strip are selected in a manner such that the bottom of a notch executed by one blade may register with that executed by the other blade. It is thus possible to obtain, as illustrated in FIG. 7, V-shaped notches 24 providing a sufficient spacing between the successive article-catching elements. This results in a possibility of cutting out the strip drawing step as described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 4.
In the embodiment illustrated, the strip 3 is provided with ribs on only one side, but, of course, such ribs may be carried on both sides, whereby a succession of article-catching elements is formed on each side of the strip 3, the elements located on one side being similar to or different from those in the opposite side.

In this paper, the authors propose a two-timescale delay-optimal dynamic clustering and power allocation design for downlink network MIMO systems. The dynamic clustering control is adaptive to the Global Queue State Information (GQSI) only and computed at the Base Station Controller (BSC) over a longer time scale. On the other hand, the power allocations of all the BSs in one cluster are adaptive to both intra-Cluster Channel State Information (CCSI) and intra-Cluster Queue State Information (CQSI), and computed at the Cluster Manager (CM) over a shorter time scale. They show that the two-timescale delay-optimal control can be formulated as an infinite-horizon average cost Constrained Partially Observed Markov Decision Process (CPOMDP).

Uptill now I have been using Twilio for phone calls. Now I want to be able to have a network monitoring tool that texts when there is a problem to a number. I would like to make it so that when twilio receives the text it will execute the script that I have put into its URL...I really don't know how to get started with sms it seems very hard and complicated as compared to phone calls...Any help on the sms is greatly appreciated to get me started.

If you've already figured Twilio voice calls, you'll find SMS easier once you figure out what they're doing. Which is essentially:
Note, Twilio can't execute a script for you, unless it's TwiML, in which case you're just returning TwiML as the response to the HTTP call from #3. So if you want to do something in response to an SMS, you'll need build that something into the logic that handles the URL you've given Twilio. If you're still lost a bit, tell us about how you're trying to do this, e.g., you've a Rails app, a PHP website, or just a Bash script you want to run and nothing else yet...
Why not avoid Twilio and have your network monitoring tool execute the script itself?

Ronkonkoma-based Zere Real Estate Services has agreed to an undisclosed settlement in its five-year long dispute with AVR Realty over commission for a Planet Fitness lease deal in Rocky Point.
Paul Caiola, Zere's senior managing director, said he introduced Planet Fitness to an 11,000-square-foot space in a Rocky Point retail center that AVR Realty was representing, but according to a Zere statement, Caiola was cut out of the negotiations.
AVR was unavailable to comment on the settlement.[dmc-related-post-wp numitems="3" title="Also read"]
"It is outrageous that landlords, developers and their attorneys treat commercial real estate brokers like they do not matter," Zere President and CEO Marie Zere said in the statement. "Commercial brokers should not give up on commissions owed and they should use all of their resources to fight for their due compensation on a tenant that occupies space that they introduced."

It's not that I'm hating on American/ Canadian beer, I just find most of it to be a tiny variation of an an already generic beer. Even some of the microbreweries taste like dog piss as well because a)they need to move product so they keep the product cheap for the most part and b) because it's cheap, they skimp out on key ingredients. Don't get me wrong though, there are still some badass beers that come from our great nations but we have nothing on Europe.
