5 Ways Rental Management Software Should Improve Business
Adopting technology for your rental office can help open up new opportunities. Whether you've decided to start using rental management software to save time, cut down on paper, or sync your large office, here's the bare-bones requirements you should expect from rental software.
It saves time. The whole point of adopting technology is so that it will make the rental process more efficient. Are you finding that you spend less time sorting through paperwork, updating files, and looking for documents? Good.
It helps you market vacancies.
Using rental marketing software means you no longer need to spend all day in front of the computer going to each listing site to update your availabilities. You should be able to update and share listings quickly from one place so you can stop marketing listings all day and start closing them.
It's intuitive.
You won't necessarily be a pro at navigating around the system on the first day, but if you're a regular user and still stumbling around a few weeks in, maybe the software isn't a good fit. In fact, before you make your purchasing decision, make sure you research industry reviews about the product. Are updates and improvements rolled out often, and more importantly, are they reliable?
It helps you provide better customer service.
Can you customize leads, narrow down properties in your database based on your renter's preferences, or sort units by the length of time they've been on the market? How about some help with e-mail marketing? Rental management software should help simplify every aspect of the rental process.
The proof is in the numbers.
In addition to improving efficiency for your rental business, the software should also be helping you increase profits. How much are you paying for the service, and are the results helping you meet or exceed your budget expectations?
The bottom line:
rental management software should simplify the rental process so that you can concentrate on marketing your vacancies, closing leases, and providing great customer service – and not be side-tracked by the small things.

I am 49, bald, ugly, and don't own a single cool thing. Kids like me though.
Life's not the breaths you take, the breathing in and out that gets you through the day ain't what it's all about. It's the moments that take your breath away.
Translate, retranslatte is a bogus statement. You need to study, re-study so that you don't make foolish statements like this.
"pour over every word"? Well, yes. We are to study God's Word. Man shall not live by bread alone........
Christ's message was pretty simple. Do unto other as you would have them do unto you. Period.
That is not His message. His message was to repent and believe in Him as the Messiah or perish.
If you have to "study the Bible" on a regular basis, then you're missing the big picture, IMO
If you don't study the Bible, you don't know what the "Big Picture" is.
He also told them this at the Last Supper: 14If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
He actually did not tell them to do unto others. He told them to love one another as I have loved you.
Prime example of the way I try to live my life: If I see someone headed into a burning house, I am going to try to keep them out.
Easter is as nice a fairy-tale tale story as the rest of them.
Most Christians seem to not know that most of the Holidays celebrated by Christians (including Easter) are actually Pagan holidays converted to Christian ones.
Here is a link that goes into this in great detail - http://www.goodnewsaboutgod.com/studies/holidays2.htm
If we don't fight hard enough for the things we stand for, at some point we have to recognize that we don't really stand for them.
~Paul Wellstone~
GnP, I'd say that the written accounts of Christ's lives and some of the other scriptural writings give pretty good examples and guidelines for loving each other. I do think that many Christians over-emphasize the Bible and under-emphasize the Christ-like actions.
I'd also say that while "do unto others" was a huge and vital part of Christ's moral teaching, that wasn't the only important thing.
Do unto others is chinese -predates jesus-of course ALL major christan holidays were scheduled during the soltice's and other important Pagan holidays -kinda ''join us or die type thing ''-much like the Cathar Heresy when the cathars chose to walk into a pyre rather than give up their beliefs .
you must remember the only people who could read and write were monks and scribes -Politics and Religion -and male -why do you think in every religion or belief system a woman caused all the troubles of the worls -from Pandora to Eve ? Because women were third class citizens .
Spider's take on the Bible:
Old Testament: Written by men who may or may not have believed that they were inspired by God. Stories were not meant to be taken literally, but meant to teach life lessons.
New Testament: (full disclosure - I have not read it, but am famailiar with much of it's content) My take - Similar to OT except that it is more of a historical account, which is colored by people's interpretation of events rather than being an objective reporting of them.
In either case, the Bible is not the word of God and is not to be taken literally, but does offer many good lessons regarding how we should live - if you can sort through the other stuff.

TUTICORIN: The special medical camp by Lifeline Express, 'hospital on rails,' hosted by Tata Steel at Nazareth railway station catered to the medical needs of around 2,500 patients in the district.
The eight-day camp that concluded on Tuesday helped seven patients undergo surgery for cleft lip by doctors of the Lifeline Express. The project was in collaboration with Indian Railways and Impact India Foundation.
S. Asokan, Executive in-charge, Titania Project, Tata Steel said that 65 ortho-appliances, 94 hearing-aids and 168 spectacles were provided to patients free of cost. Over 400 patients of ENT-related problems were referred to Government hospital for further treatment, he said.
The 'hospital on rails' was inaugurated on November 5, by Minister of State for Home Affairs V. Radhika Selvi and Minister for Social Welfare P. Geetha Jeevan.
"Today, there is a critical need for delivering quality health services in remote areas … Through this initiative, Tata Steel, wanted to reach out to the society and provide support and best possible health facilities to the needy people," Dr. Asokan said.
A total of 168 patients were tested for refractive error and were provided with spectacles at free of cost. Besides, 369 patients were benefited by the ENT Camp.
Tata Steel has hosted the Lifeline Express 13 times in Jharkhand, Orissa and Chhattisgarh. This was the first time that the 'hospital on rails' visited Tamil Nadu, Dr. Asokan, said.

About this design:
I made this necklace in a memory of summers at the Jersey shore back in the 1970's. We were all beaders in one way or another~mostly long multiple strands of seed beads.
These colors and the entire design I came up with remind me of those carefree, oh so happy days
Components:Mother of Pearl shell rose shaped pendant. Fluorite multicolor nugget beads. Sterling silver spacers, clasp, and extender. 49 strand .019 beading wire, sterling silver bullion, crimps and crimp covers
Read the comments (or add your own)
This is so lovely. That pendant is gorgeous! And the fluorite beads are superb. It's not often you see such multiple colors in one strand. Lovely work.
Cool focal point
I love that pendant! The fluorite really makes it shine! Well done!!
Oh, I do love your necklace. (I am from Matawan, NJ, so well acquainted w/Jersey shore.) I think your choice of fluorite is absolutely perfect. Beautiful!
Beautiful coloring! Love the silver beads accenting the pendant.
The fluorite compliments the subtle irridescence of th shell wonderfully!
Lovely, great choice of beads to compliment the focal
The fluorite looks awesome with the focal! Beautiful design!
Love the pendant!
Love the fluorite beads. They are just perfect with the rose.
Great design!

Free app tracks fireflies
Counting lightning bugs can help scientists track this important insect
By Bethany Brookshire, 09:31 AM June 11, 2014
That first flashing firefly at dusk means summer is here. Now, you can put part of your summer vacation to good use, with a firefly-tracking smartphone app. Its data could contribute to important research on these glowing little bugs.
Fireflies inspire songs, books, and even the names of TV shows. There are over 2,000 species of these dusk-loving lightning bugs all over the world. But some scientists are worried that people may be destroying the the insects' habitat or killing them with pestic...

Ethnocultural Person-Environment Fit and College Adjustment: Some Implications for College Counselors
Hutz, Aida, Martin, William E., Jr., Beitel, Mark, Journal of College Counseling
The authors investigated the relationship between students' ethnocultural person-environment (P-E) fit and college adjustment. They hypothesized differences between P-E fit of ethnocultural minority versus majority students at a predominantly White university but did not expect differences in adjustment. Furthermore, they explored the effects of ethnicity and sex on P-E fit and adjustment. Findings generally supported the hypotheses. The authors provide recommendations to increase college counselors' effectiveness in working with diverse clients.
It is estimated that by the year 2020, the majority of people in the United States will belong to ethnocultural groups other than White, European American (Sue & Sue, 1999). Currently in the United States, 45% of all students enrolled in public schools belong to socioracial minority groups (Sue & Sue, 2003), a figure that has increased from 28% in 1982 and from 33% in 1992 (Institute of Education Sciences, National Center for Education Statistics, 2007). Thus, not only is the number of ethnocultural minority students pursuing a college education currently increasing, but it is predicted that this trend will continue ha years to come. As a result, college counselors must continue refining their awareness, knowledge, and skills (Sue & Sue, 2003) to more competently work with a diverse student population.
In addition to understanding students' concerns from a universal perspective, multiculturally competent counselors must also be able to identify external (i.e., environmental) factors that are likely to have a negative impact on ethnocultural minority individuals. This study attempted to investigate the influence these factors may have on the college adjustment of ethnocultural minority, students.
College Adjustment
College adjustment is a multifaceted psychosocial process that imposes stressors on students and requires an array of coping skills. All students are expected to experience adjustment demands in the following areas: (a) academic, (b) social, (c) personal-emotional, and (d) attachment to the institution (Baker & Siryk, 1989).
Along with experiencing the various adjustment demands, which tend to confront all college matriculants, cultural minority students also appear to face unique difficulties that majority students do not face. Perhaps most notably, because on most college campuses the majority of students tend to be White, European Americans, those who belong to an ethnocultural minority group often face unique social adjustment challenges (Kenny & Stryker, 1996). Such challenges include perception of a racially hostile climate (Hurtado & Carter, 1997; Schwitzer, Griffin, Ancis, & Thomas, 1999), a feeling of social isolation (Schwitzer et al., 1999; Smedley, Myers, & Harrell, 1993), and a general sense of incongruence with the university environment (Chavous, 2000).
Although the hurdles faced by ethnocultural minority students have been well described in the literature, students' responses to these hurdles appear to be less well understood. It is interesting that the literature remains unclear as to whether the additional hurdles necessarily lead to poorer adjustment. For instance, on one hand, Tomlinson-Clarke (1998) found no significant differences between White and Black female college students' perceptions of academic adjustment, social adjustment, and institutional attachment, that is, three of the four adjustment domains as measured by the Student Adaptation to College Questionnaire (SACQ; Baker & Siryk, 1989). In the fourth domain, personal-emotional adjustment, she found that minority students actually experienced higher levels of adjustment than nonminority students did (Tomlinson-Clarke, 1998).
Additionally, African American female students, attending a predominantly White university, indicated higher levels of "psychological and physical wellbeing and less general psychological distress" (Tomlinson-Clarke, 1998, p. …

Restaurace u Uejvodu: What a neat restaurant!
The first time we visited this restaurant/bar was as part of our organized Beer Tour of Prague, and one of my companions wanted to return for beer the next evening. I suggested staying for dinner, and I'm glad that's what we ended up doing. The ambience of this restaurant was awesome! From the glass ceiling that let in some great light, to the openness of the dining room, all the way to the bar made out of an old beer vat, I found this place impressive. And the food! Mmmm!
Favorite Dish: I tried the Stroganoff this time, and was slightly dissappointed. Mind you, it was still great, but there were pickles in the sauce that kind of threw off the taste. My husand had chicken rolled in bacon with green beans and *potatoe smiles* (spelled that way on purpose), and seemed to be pretty happy with it.

- Family Travel
U Vejvodù: enjoy the culture including the smoke Cloud!!!
I always end up here when in prague maybe because the food is cheap , the beer is def cheap at 32 k, 2 areas to sit in either the bar where you will sit in a cloud of smoke from other peoples, comes as a bit of a shock when you are used to non-smoking, or there is the large beer hall which is smoke friendly, service is quick and friendly, but I object to the waiters telling me how much the service charge should be, this only happened with this chain of pubs ie the same happened in the other 2 pubs, but overall great for a drink and a quick meal.
Favorite Dish: all the local dishes plus the beer either dark or light
U Vejvodu: Busy, comfortable pub/restaurant....
We ended up eating here twice. Although it was near our hotel, so were hundreds of other places to eat....but we just liked the atmosphere in this one.
We liked the fact that most of its customers were locals, that its waiters were smiley and pleasant and polite (and super-efficient), that we could sit on the balcony and people-watch to our hearts' content....and that the food was both well-cooked and reasonably-priced (beer is good too).
The buildings housing U Vedvoju were once a brewery, some of which dates back to the 1400s and much more to the 1600s. I got a glimpse of a beautiful painted ceiling through the upstairs window one night (no public access to that bit, sadly). The website has an excellent history page (in English).
We had goulash one night (very tasty). On the other, I had a starter only (quite enough for me..portions are huge!) and my friend had beef. All the meals were very pleasant indeed, although so filling neither of us had room for any dessert.
Mind you, we also saw many people happily chomping their way through vast pork hocks, or plates of meat...
Two meals, two small beers and a coffee each came to much less than 20GBP (2010), which I consider excellent value.
Recommended: and you need not worry about staff here fiddling the bill or automatically adding 10% for a tip (which happened in a couple of places we visited).

U Vejvodu: Typical Restaurant
This is typical Czech restaurant, they serve mostly Pilsner beer and different kind of dishes. Also on every table there are sesame rings – very popular in Czech Republic and Germany. There are 10 of them on the table and when the waiter takes the bill he counts them ;).
U Vejvodu: Great beer, great atmosphere
U Vejvodu is a huge beer hall, which is one of the few places that is set up to serve Pilsner Urquell from huge vats, as opposed to regular kegs. This makes the beer SO much better tasting, and just simply enhances your drinking experience.
The food there is a bit overpriced (tourist prices), but the food is good...not amazing, but very good for a place that caters mainly to tourists.
Come here for the great tasting beer and the grandeure of the beer hall. It is a good time!
Favorite Dish: The beer is the best part of the menu. Try it and love it.
U Vejvodu: Disappointing Popular Restaurant
I didn't really like this restaurant, although a lot of people seem to like it and expats rate it as a good place to go. Our food was not really tasty - certainly nothing special and some of it a bit strange, though the soup was acceptable and the beer was good. I felt the food was standard tourist fare, at least that's what it tasted like.
I was with a tour group (they cater to groups as well) that was made up of a majority of Turks - businessmen and their wives - friendly, well-dressed people with good manners - and we were stared at throughout the whole meal by locals, and not in a nice way. I felt like the staff wanted to get rid of us too and I was happy to leave.
U Vejvodu: Great meeting place for food and drink
There is a small bar area as you enter into the building. Can be busy up this end but if you can find a small table it can be pleasant being there. There is a larger hall if you go down the stairs. In that hall there are side rooms, a main area with bar, plus another floor above. I think this hall can get a bit smokey from one of my visits so best to check it out first.
It opens till 4am, which can be handy!
I really love the dark beer they serve. However, once I went and they said they didn't have any left. What kind of business are they running?!
On my visits to Prague this has become a usual haunt for me now.
Favorite Dish: Roast Knee of Pork. A huge piece of pig comes, in the form of the knee which is a lot of meat to get through. It is very moist, succulent and comes with a variety of spicy sauces and mustard on the wooden platter which holds it up in the air for you to cut and eat. I went for a side order of spinach just to have some vegetables to go with all that meat. I ordered also some dumplings but that was too much to handle in conjunction with the meat.
Vejvodva: Old Bohemian Specialites
I had GREAT inexpensive meals here for under $10 -- an appetizer and an entree .... You can also order a la carte which too is reasonably priced. They have streat, beef, fish, chips, EVERYTHING Czech and Internation as well as OUTSTANDING BEER!
Favorite Dish: I liked the Beef and Dumpling special.
Also I liked the fried fish.
The fried chicken is so-so ...
- Family Travel
U Vejvodu: Popular but nothing special
U Vejvodu is a pub, beerhall and restaurant all rolled in to one, and a firm favourite with locals and tourists from around the globe. We visited this place for a quick drink on Xmas Eve and we were a bit dissapointed to find the place empty but a few locals, watching TV in a large LCD screen hanging near the bar. I assumed that the place was not busy because locals tend to celebrate Xmas Eve indoors with their families, but the high volume of the TV was a bit off putting.
Personaly I was left a bit dissapointed after all the good reviews I have read about the place.

- Budget Travel
- Beer Tasting
U Vejvodu: Top points for me!
U Vejvodu is an all round good pub with a very welcoming atmosphere. It's popular among locals early evening, then gets a bit noiser later in the night with the younger crowds. All in all it was a great experience, delicious food & fantastic cheap beer 24.90 czk!!! :) Pilsen I miss you!
Open from Sun-Thu 10:00-02:00; Fri-Sat 10:00-03:00
Favorite Dish: Beef stroganov... wow!
U Vejvodu: pilsner urquell original restaurant...
LARGE restaurant, good prices, good food. a more traditional atmosphere. one of the fave dishes customers like to order is the pork knee that comes served on the spick thingy. good portions. good beer. and many times - especially during tourist season, an accordian player in house.
Favorite Dish: my fave dishes include the gulas with bread dumplings, and the chicken with broccoli covered in a cheesy sauce. also good are the onion rings!

Portsmouth, VA to Fishing Bay
Getting an early start, we upped anchor at 6:30 and headed for the trip north up the Chesepeake. Had couple of barges and container ships to deal with, but otherwise we were the first out. Once into Hampton Roads we met 4 foot seas and head winds, which were soon compounded by the overtaking container ship wake. Jon experienced his first "oh sh*t" moment as he bounced around like a rubber duck in the confused seas. At one point I actually saw the forefoot of his keel. Once into the bay proper though, things steady out a bit and the day went by quickly as we made good time. Jon's second "oh sh*t" moment came later, when he almost went into 2 foot of water. Since this is part delivery, and part learning experience, I let him lead for the day. Except for that one moment, he did a fine job of getting us to our anchorage for the night.

Whether you're looking for a replacement, an upgrade or a solution for a special application, Rockler has the right hinge for your project. Our extensive selection ranges from piano and lid-stay hinges for use with large panels to small-box hinges for jewelry and music boxes. And we offer a variety of finishes to complement any material.
Of course, you'll also find scores of options for outfitting or renovating kitchen or bathroom cabinets. If you're choosing hinges for such a project, it's important to nail down a few details to guide your selection process:
Face frame or frameless: Do your cabinets have a wider frame that attaches to and overlaps the front edges of the cabinet case? Or are the case's front edges covered with edge-banding trimmed flush to the sides?
Overlay or inset: When the doors are closed, do they cover the opening completely by overlapping it (overlay), or do they fit just inside the opening, flush with the face frame or the case sides (inset)? If they overlay the opening, do they have a channel cut along the back side that fits neatly in the opening? (This is called a partial overlay and requires its own kind of hinge.)
Visible or concealed: Do you want to see part of the hinge when the door is closed, as with decorative or butt hinges with ball or urn tips, or do you want the hinge to be completely hidden from view, as with European-style hinges? How important is easy adjustability? (European-style hinges allow for more adjustment.)
Mortise or no-mortise: Are you able to cut the precise, shallow recesses required for some hinges, or would a no-mortise option better fit your application?
Simple functionality or special features: Are you looking for hinges that simply open and close, or do you want extra features such as snap-close or soft-close functionality?
If you're still not sure what kind of hinge you need, snap a digital picture of the problem and e-mail it to email@example.com for some expert advice from our Tech Services Department. And remember that when you buy from Rockler, hinges come complete with mounting screws and step-by-step instructions.

SIOUX FALLS, S.D. – University of Sioux Falls Athletic Director Willie Sanchez received official word yesterday that the University of Sioux Falls has been accepted for membership into the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division II beginning in the 2012-13 school year. The Cougars' athletics programs – which held NCAA D-II provisional status for the past year, will compete in the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference with the exception of men's soccer, which will compete in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference (GNAC). USF will officially become a member of the NCAA D-II on September 1, but games that will be played in August including the football season opener at St. Cloud on August 30 will also be considered NCAA contests. USF will be immediately eligible to compete in NCAA D-II championship events in 2012-13, as well as for post-season academic and athletic awards from the NCAA, NSIC and the GNAC.

November 2, 2014 - I received soaps which are for Xmas presents, they look and smell beautiful....thank you!
October 12, 2014 - Gave the Green Tea & Lemongrass to my daughter for a gift and she not only love the soap but also that the gift did so much more.
June 2, 2014 - I got the Cinnamon/Orange & the Mint Rosemary and LOVE them both!
March 23, 2014 - I purchased Green Tea Lemon Grass & Mint Rosemary. They smell delicious! I was sniffing them soap bars non-stop! I had trouble putting them away! Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity to try these bars of soap. I purchased these bars of soap because I like the natural ingredients & they are "handmade by All Pure Nature, a women-owned business in Ghana..." I am done with doing business with greedy corporations. I am a non-retail, shop green, for the greater good, non-profit organization woman. I am really looking forward to trying these soap bars soon.

Bangi Heights Development Sdn Bhd, which develops the Bandar Seri Putra in Bangi, Selangor, has released its latest shop-offices in the commercial area of SP Retail Centre@ Bandar Seri Putra.
Consisting of 14 units of three- and four-storey shop-offices with lot sizes of 22 ft by 80 ft and constructed on areas of 5,248 sq ft or 6,997sq ft for the intermediate units, they are designed for businesses including food, serviced-based trades, retail and convenience stores.
Bangi Heights Development, a subsidiary of UM Land Bhd, said the sales through balloting had been encouraging since the units, with prices ranging between RM935,000 and RM2 million, were taken up quickly.
The shop-offices aim to improve the one-stop commercial concept of SP Retail Centre to offer residents with better access to modern amenities, as well as boost property prices in the area.
With Bandar Seri Putra's strategic position between Nilai and Bandar Baru Bangi, the township is poised to be a preferred place for home seekers and businesses; thus, investors and owners in the shop-offices can expect higher market prices and rentals in the future.
To bring in more growth, there are plans to build a series of homes for the rich. Projects that are under way at Bandar Baru Bangi are cluster homes and semi-Ds, with features that suit the local weather, such as louvres for privacy and sunshade for protection from the glare and heat of direct sunlight.
Sandstones, stones and other indigenous claddings and materials will also be used for greater durability and aesthetic value in its future homes.POST COMMENT

Scotland's captain Mike Blair is under no illusions about the magnitude of their task at Murrayfield on Saturday.
Scotland are fresh off a 32-6 defeat to the second-string All Blacks, a match Blair described as the fastest he'd ever played in. He said he expected a similar pace and intensity from the Springboks and was acutely aware that the challenge they faced was a monumental one.
"The quality of the South African team is exceptional. I think it's stronger than the one that won the World Cup last year," Blair said.
"It's a really impressive outfit we're playing against. You look at the quality of their team and what they're capable of doing. In the first 10 or 15 minutes against Wales they were outstanding. Wales did well to get back into the game, but there's a real threat throughout their team, the back row in particular."
Blair peddled a now familiar rhetoric about how they were unlucky not to cause an upset given the amount of chances they created. Scotland have of course not crossed the chalk at Murrayfield since their World Cup Test against Romania in 2007 and Blair predicted another testing afternoon as they seek to unhinge the Springbok defensive line.
"The way the South Africans defend is typically a blitz defence up in the face, so it's going to be important to us how we manage the game, our decision-making on the pitch. They kicked a hell of a lot against Wales and they play with a pressure game. They give you the ball and say, Let's see what you can do'. It's definitely a different challenge and in many ways a harder challenge."

Previously, studies have reported that higher plasma omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) associate with a lower risk of age related cognitive decline, and exert beneficial effects on cardiometabolic risk factors. Inger Bjorck, from Lund University (Sweden), and colleagues enrolled 40 healthy middle-aged men and women in a study in which subjects consumed a daily supplement containing 3g of omega-3 fish oil, or placebo, for five weeks prior to the administration of standardized cognitive tests and collection of metabolic risk markers including blood pressure, serum triglycerides, and fasting glucose. The team observed that the subjects who consumed the omega-3 performed better on the cognitive assessments, and had lower systolic blood pressure, triglycerides, fasting glucose, and s-TNF-alpha (a marker of inflammation), which the study authors submit as "indicating a potential of dietary prevention strategies to delay onset of metabolic disorders and associated cognitive decline."

#101 - Flush with Food
Thanks to today's contemporary lifestyle of fast foods, our 24/7/365 accessibility, and the growing pressures of many of us in our professional and personal lives, we have become a population of toxemics. "Toxemia" is the medical term that defines a condition in which our bodies accumulate poisonous substances to such a point that levels exceed the ability of our body systems to cleanse them away. Medical conditions associated with toxemia include:
• Hepatitis A, B, C, D, E, F, and G
• Liver damage, including cirrhosis
• Diarrhea
• Constipation
• Irritable bowel syndrome
• Leaky gut syndrome
Include fiber in your everyday diet, because fiber can promote the digestive and elimination processes to help your body get rid of toxins (see Tip 42).

My Parliament
You are here:
Mrs Jane Prentice MP, Chairman of the Infrastructure and Communications Committee, discusses the current inquiry into the use of subsection 313(3) of the Telecommunications Act 1997 by government agencies to disrupt the operation of illegal online services.
Section 313 of the Telecommunications Act 1997 provides Australian government agencies (including state government agencies) with the ability to obtain assistance from the telecommunications industry when upholding Australian laws. Commonwealth agencies have used section 313 to prevent the continuing operation of online services in breach of Australian law (e.g. sites seeking to perpetrate financial fraud). The Australian Federal Police uses section 313 to block domains (websites) which contain the most severe child sexual abuse and exploitation material using the INTERPOL 'Worst of ' child abuse list. When a user seeks to access one of these sites, they are provided a block page that provides certain information, including reasons for the block, and contact details for any dispute about inclusion of the listing on the INTERPOL list.
How government agencies use section 313 to request the disruption of such services is an important public policy question. Section 313 is also used for other purposes, but the Committee will inquire solely into and report on government agency use of section 313 for the purpose of disrupting illegal online services.
The Committee invites interested persons and organisations to make submissions addressing the terms of reference. Online submissions can be made on this page. For information on how to make a submission, go to our Making a submission to a Committee Inquiry page.
A final report is to be provided by 1 July 2015.

Speckled Trout Amandine
|1⁄2 Pound
|2 Tablespoon
|Trout fillets
|6 , fried (Speckled)
|1⁄2 , juiced
The trout may be deliciously fried if it is first soaked in a small quantity of milk.
Slice 2 cloves garlic and add to the milk about 1/2 hour before adding the fish.
Flavor the milk with salt, pepper, and a small onion, scraped.
After soaking, the fish should be rolled in flour and fried in deep fat.
A half pound of almonds will garnish fish for 5 or 6 persons.
Simply chop the almonds to the size used for fudge or other candy, and brown them in a small saucepan in the butter, until the nuts are a rich golden color.
Squeeze the juice from 1/2 lemon into the butter just before serving, and then pile the nuts over individual servings of the fish; or if the fillets are served at the table from the platter, serve from a gravy boat, spooning the sauce over the fish.

Travel site says cheap production costs - combined with overall impressions and positive blog chatter - have made the effort a big ROI win.
Travelocity's "Roaming Gnome" mascot made headlines on April 1 when it began appearing on Chatroulette, the five-month-old site best known for nude and lewd behavior by some of its users. Now, 40 days into the effort, the travel brand told ClickZ that the initiative has resulted in 350,000 impressions and 400 conversations between potential customers and its chat specialists.
"We've been really happy with the way [the gnome] has been received and how the chat conversations have gone," said Joel Frey, spokesperson for the Southlake, TX-based company. "The gnome is kind of a perfect character for social media because he's non-threatening and conversational. We have had a lot of fun with the gnome on Facebook and Twitter, and Chatroulette is just a natural extension of those things."
A lot of Travelocity's enthusiasm for the effort lies in its low cost. The budget line items were a video recorder, a tripod, and paying a staffer to chat with people. But what about interacting in a video chat forum that has become known as an online haven for real-time, X-rated conduct?
Frey said the marketing play is not as risky as it may initially appear because it's only a two-way interaction - between Travelocity's chatter and the Chatroulette user on the other end. In other words, if the Travelocity chatter comes in visual contact with some unsavory activity, the rest of the world will never know.
"If we do run into somebody that we don't want to talk to, we just hit the 'Next' button and move on to the next conversation," he said. "That's helped us answer the question about whether we wanted to be associated with a medium known for people hanging around in their birthday suits... And, we think over time Chatroulette could get past the reputation it has for being a seedy place."
Travelocity's agency of record, McKinney, invented the gnome character in 2003 and also thought up the Chatroulette play. The agency executes the project at its Durham, NC-based offices (see image to the right). On the video chat site, the gnome is usually seen holding a sign, which communicates - in handwritten magic marker - where the mascot is located at that moment on his fictitious travels. Dedicated Facebook and Twitter accounts for the gnome also reflect where he is supposed to be.
"We don't want his sign to say he's in Las Vegas, if his Facebook page says he's in Aspen," said Janet Northern, spokesperson for McKinney. "When there cannot be somebody there to chat at 3 o'clock in the morning, we make sure there's a really cool sign up."
During those off-hours with no chat specialist present, the video camera continues to roll and indeed relies on the signs to interact with viewers.
The signs often playfully suggest that traveling is a better use of time than Chatroulette. Two recent examples: "Traveling from person to person doesn't count. Travelocity.com." And, "Awesome Things: 1.) Tahoe this weekend. 2.) Traveling instead of chatting. Travelocity.com."
Frey added, "The initial thought was, 'Here's a captive audience that may be in need of a trip. So it could be a good way to get them thinking about booking their next adventure that they want to take on their own.'"
Meanwhile, Travelocity has seemingly benefitted from a groundswell of general buzz around Chatroulette in recent months. According to the most recent comScore data, Chatroulette.com went from a few hundred thousand unique visitors in January to more than 4 million in February.
"We've gotten a lot of positive buzz from this that we really weren't at all expecting," Frey said. "The PR alone has totally captured the ROI... And our hope is that as Chatroulette continues to grow, we'll sort of get that halo effect for being an early adapter."

The present invention relates to wearable pads for use in medical tests, and more particularly, to a multifunctional wearable apron for use in examining heart functions, lungs functions, blood pressure and additional tests.
In order to perform an ECG test on a patient, one must place and attach electrodes on various locations patient body. One of the means to attach electrodes to a patient body in exact placements is an Electrode Apron disclosed in PCT publication No. WO97/14346. The Apron is designed to be put on patient body and includes electrodes placed at desired locations to perform required tests.
The present invention provides an Examination Apron that independently performs ECG and other examinations. The Examination Apron, according to the present invention, performs ECG test and additional tests and can display the results on a display screen installed on the Examination Apron and transfer data and results via cable or IR (Infra Red) LED to outside instruments such as printers, PCs and modems.
The Examination Apron of the present invention independently performs ECG and other examinations and includes a 12 Lead Electrodes Apron that is put on patient body, a processing microcomputer unit for receiving data from the electrodes and additional equipment installed on the Examination Apron, an optional display device for displaying tests results that were calculated and processed by the processing unit, a cable or IR LED for transmitting information from the processing unit to a receiving instrument such as a personal computer, a modem or a printer. The Examination Apron includes a battery that provides the power needed for operation.
The Examination Apron can, additionally, perform a Chest Wall Movement test by means of the hardware and software in the processing unit. That processing unit sends a high frequency current to the existing ECG electrodes, measures changes in impedance caused by the Chest Wall Movements, thus calculating test results.
The Examination Apron, can, in addition, include microphones to enable auscultation to the heart from various standard points on the chest such as the pulmonary and aortal points, ERB and APEX by means of the microphones placed in the Examination Apron above these listed points. The location of the microphones is adjusted to the patient body size by stretching the Apron on the body.
The Examination Apron further includes back straps provided with additional microphones for auscultation to lungs. These additional microphones will be placed above different fields of each lung—one or more microphones will be placed above the lower lobe and one or more microphones will be placed above the upper lobe.
The Examination Apron can, in addition, include a temperature sensor pressed with the Apron to the body. In that manner the patient body to in the axial region is measured, transferred to the processing unit and then displayed or transmitted to external devices.
The Examination Apron can, in addition, include an inflatable cushion attached to the patient body. By an inflating device, manually operated or electrally driven, the cushion can be inflated or deflated. The pressure values are translated into digital data by a transducer and from this data, the blood pressure of the patient is calculated.
The present invention will be described in details with reference FIGS. 1,2,3 and 4. The figures are intended to describe embodiments of the invention and not to restrain the scope of the invention in any way.
FIG. 1 shows the Examination Apron including an ECG machine.
FIG. 2 shows the Examination Apron including an auscultation system.
FIG. 3 shows the Examination Apron including a temperature sensor.
FIG. 4 shows the Examination Apron including a Blood Pressure testing system.
FIG. 1 shows the Examination Apron of the invention. The electrodes are placed on the Apron on standard locations. Inside the central part of the Apron a processing unit is installed (1). It receives the ECG signals from the electrodes and calculates the ECG leads. The result is displayed on a display device (2) that can be installed in the front part of the Examination Apron. By means of IR LED (3), the processing unit transmits the ECG information to a printer, PC or modem The Apron includes battery (4) that provides the Apron with all the power it requires to operate.
FIG. 2 shows the Examination Apron provided with an auscultation system. Microphones are installed in several points within the Apron. The microphones record the sounds of the heartbeat from several points on patient chest. For instance, we can install one microphone in electrode V1 (5) is listening to Pulmonary point, one microphone in electrode V2 (6) for listening to Aortal point, the microphone in electrode V3 (7) for listening to ERB point and the microphone in electrode V5 (8) for listening to APEX point. The information is transmitted to the processing unit (1) and the result is displayed on the display device (2) and can be transmitted by IR LED (3) to outside receiving means, so that a physician can listen to the patient heart from a remote location.
FIG. 2a shows another embodiment of the Apron that includes back straps (9) provided with four additional microphones—10 and 11 above the lower lung lobes and 12 and 13 above the upper lung lobe, for recording the breathing sounds of the patient in order to transfer them to a remote medical facility for evaluation.
FIG. 3 shows the Apron provided with a temperature sensor (19). The temperature sensor is installed on the Apron. When the Apron is being put on the patient, the sensor is pressed to the patient body in the same way the electrodes are pressed to it. The temperature sensor measures the temperature of the patient axial area and displays the result on the display device (2). The result can also be transmitted to outside receiving devices by the IR LED.
FIG. 4 shows the Apron provided with a Blood Pressure testing system. Into the part of the Apron that is attached to an arm of the patient an inflatable cushion is installed (113). The inflatable cushion can be inflated and deflated by an inflating device (110) that can be either manually operated or electrically driven.
The pressures are transmitted through a tube (111) into a converter (112) that translates the pressures into a digital form. The processing unit calculates the patient blood pressure from that information and displays it on the display device (2). The information can also be transmitted by IR LED (3) to outside receiving devices.
The Examination Apron of the present invention can perform independently several tests, display the results on a display device and transmit the results to an outside receiving devices. The Apron operates on its' own power supply, such as batteries. The examinations performed by the Apron are: ECG test, Chest Wall Movement, Heart and Lung auscultation—in standard medical auscultation points, patient temperature measuring and Blood Pressure tests.

NEW YORK A Nazi-filled Christmas is not an easy sell. That's just one of the challenges Tom Cruise faces with his new World War II thriller "Valkyrie," which opens Dec. 25. In the film, which portrays the seldom-recalled German resistance to Adolf Hitler, Cruise plays would-be Hitler assassin Col. Claus von Stauffenberg.
It's a risky film to make and not just because of the sensitive subject matter. Cruise has been trying to rehabilitate his image – and few PR experts regularly advise donning a German army uniform to engender warm feelings.
On the other hand, "Valkyrie" is also a serious, suspenseful film. Can it help put Cruise back on top?
In a recent interview, Cruise and director Bryan Singer downplayed the bad pre-release buzz for "Valkyrie."
The film's release date repeatedly changed. Early ads showing the similar appearance of an eye-patched Cruise and Stauffenberg were mocked online. At one point, German Defense Ministry officials said the production couldn't shoot at Berlin's Benderblock memorial to the Nazi resistance because of Cruise's beliefs in Scientology – which isn't recognized as a religion in Germany. (The statements were quickly recanted and shooting went forward.)
Cruise, 46, is familiar with uncontrollable spirals of bad publicity – and not just in the last few tumultuous years. He has long been dogged by rumors about his personal life and has been through productions (like 1988's "Rain Man," he points out) that seemed doomed before they were released.
"It's nice to be able to have people talk about the film, as opposed to us reading about the film," Cruise said. "It is what it is. And I understand it. I do understand it."
His recent bout of bad publicity started with that fateful appearance on Oprah Winfrey's show in 2005. Then there was the awkward interview with "Today" show host Matt Lauer. The following year, Paramount Pictures severed its 14-year relationship with him.
"As I've said, I want an adventurous life," said Cruise. "And yet I've gotten a little bit more adventure than I bargained for."
A rebound is fully in the works. Cruise revisited Winfrey – the scene of the sofa – earlier this year. On Monday, he publicly patched things up with Lauer. He started his own Web site, too.
And last week, he received a Golden Globe nomination for his hilarious performance in Ben Stiller's raunchy summer comedy "Tropic Thunder," in which he plays a dirty-dancing, foul-mouthed studio head.
With producer Paula Wagner, Cruise reformed the United Artists film studio as a boutique label for MGM. Their first film for UA, last year's "Lions for Lambs," was a critical and box-office failure and Wagner exited as chief executive officer in August. The more expensive "Valkyrie" – reportedly made for $90 million, though Singer said $75 million is more accurate – is a considerable gamble for both UA and Cruise.
He jokes at the predicament: "Go kill Hitler on Christmas!"
There were many plots to assassinate Hitler, but the one involving Stauffenberg and many other high-ranking German officers is well-known in Germany. On July 20, 1944 (six weeks after D-Day), Stauffenberg conspired to kill Hitler with a bomb and install a change-of-power scheme called Operation Valkyrie. The plot failed (Hitler would kill himself in April 1945) and about 200 were executed for their involvement.
