With 35 years' experience in the IT and Software Training field, Jill of All Trades is Australia's premier Xero consultant – and the first bookkeeper in the world to be awarded Xero Gold Partner status. Read more…
Gillian did a great job setting up our business' accounting system using Xero. She knows the system back-to-front and quickly had us up and running. Her service and follow-up was prompt and helpful and she was able to recommend integrated Xero partners to provide a full online accounting and payroll solution that meets our business needs.
I have used MYOB for many years and was sceptical about trying a new accounting system. However, I have to say that I was extremely impressed by Xero and its implementation by Gillian.
I have worked with Gillian for 18 years. Gillian has always demonstrated an extremely professional approach to our mutual client requirements. Her exceptional attention to detail and meticulous completion of accounting requirements is commended. These attributes, combined with her smiling face, friendly disposition and concerned attitude to clients' needs means that your association with her will be totally rewarding. I would certainly recommend Gillian to any prospective client who is seeking a reliable professional with accounting skills, as well as software knowledge and consultancy.

Interview With TidyStock: Xero consultant and inventory expert chooses TidyStock
Posted by Gillian Rossouw at Wednesday, March 11, 2015
It was indeed an honour to be interviewed by the Tidy Stock team on clients' reaction after completion of implementation. They have now retired Excel to track their inventory.
"It's really a no-brainer," is how Gillian from Jill of All Trades sums up the decision to use TidyStock. Gillian is a cloud integrator and Xero consultant on Australia's Gold Coast who was looking for an inventory management system for her clients. She explains it as a Goldilocks situation, "You don't want it to be too complicated or too simple for your needs." She found TidyStock is the complete package, "TidyStock is fabulous to use and so simple to set up. It's neat and easy."
TidyStock improves owners' lifestyles
Many of Gillian's clients want to be able to travel or operate from a home office and be able to keep their finger on the pulse of the business. She says they can tap into Xero and they need to be able to manage their stock as well. They tend to run pretty lean businesses and buy just in time. "TidyStock enables them to do that and get away from the business."
Gillian recently did an integration for a client who "was blown away with TidyStock, they said it's so cool and easy to use." This was a client who had a very complicated system using Excel and Xero. They particularly liked how TidyStock could be massaged to their own requirements and gave them everything they could possibly need.
Chris Carroll, Manager of Rack'n Stack, was trialling another system and told Gillian he really needed to get inventory sorted. She told him he was wasting his time with anything other than TidyStock and helped get him set up. His staff learnt the system in a few hours and Chris says "It is working great".
TidyStock has helped Gillian's clients by giving them a lot more clarity. It has shown them the true costs of landing stock and helps to identify wastage. They now know what they really have on hand and when they should order. They also like having staff access TidyStock without the security risk of having direct access to Xero.
Cloud Integrators
While Gillian raves about the user friendliness of TidyStock, she also points out how much a consultant can ease the transition. Gillian uses her experience to get clients up and running in two hours. She does the heavy lifting and uses her knowledge of software and accounting to hand over an optimised system.
Many clients have been stuck using an old legacy system and get bogged down with the job of switching over to a modern system. Once the switch is made, they realise how important it is to have features like multi-currency and multi-users where they don't have to wait for someone else to finish before they use the system.
In the end Gillian is very clear on why she recommends TidyStock, "It works fabulously, does everything it says it does and is very pretty to work with."

CreditorWatch & Xero - Tools Of the Trade for Tradies
Posted by Gillian Rossouw at Tuesday, December 09, 2014
Doing the job is one thing. Getting paid is another thing!
One of the many challenges that comes with running a business is making sure SME business owners keep on top of administration, GST compliance and finances to maximise their profit. As their business grows, new challenges appear. Particularly with trades and service business who are not only working "on the tools", but they are also require business management skills.
They now find that their business role has changed dramatically into that of a management role. This comes with the territory, viz staff recruitment, managing staff, chasing new contracts, building business relationships, providing quality service, debt collection and cash flow.
Tradies in Australia have had to contend with late payers and bad debts far too often. I have heard many stories of woe and as one of my clients has mentioned "he is out there driving new business and does not want to be the one chasing bad debts".
The key to success is working smarter and this is where I believe CreditorWatch, who has sashayed into the online ecosystem space to provide real time credit reports, customer monitoring & alerts and debt collection tools, is a winner.
What is CreditorWatch? & How It Can Help Small Business
CreditorWatch is a cloud based credit-reporting agency that manages the credit files of all commercial businesses in Australia. It assists to identify bad debtors and helps to provide credit management solutions. CreditorWatch comes in three flavours with various levels of access.

Some of their cool features and what I like about CreditorWatch:
I have been using CreditorWatch with Xero for just over a month and have found the tools, email notification updates and resources terrific, all of which have been really beneficial in running my own business. Love that CreditorWatch Connects with Xero.
Collaboration: Within 24 hours of signing up, I received a welcoming letter thanking me for connecting CreditorWatch to my Xero account as well as receiving a follow up phone call from my new account manager, who offered to take me on a guided tour.
Customer Lookup: Search for a business by "Name, ABN and ACN": Whilst assisting one of my clients when performing their quarterly BAS Business Health Check, came across a new sub-contractor my client was dealing with and was not sure if he was had an ABN &/or registered for GST. I was able to do a quick search and had the answer, readily available just by entering the contact details from the dashboard.
Customer Love: Excellent. Easy to use, wide range of functionality. Cloud based am able to use on my iPad. Ticks all the boxes.
At a glance:
- Online: Provides the tools to assist with decision making, knowing who you are dealing with before opening up that account and whether there are any risk factors.

Members can take action against bad debtors and non payers, by lodging defaults online and warn other businesses.

Lawtomatic Launches New One-Stop Legal Services Website to Bring Attorneys and Clients Together Easily and Affordably
DALLAS, May 6, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — A private group of investors including attorneys, Web developers and social media marketers announced the launch of a new legal services website where attorneys receive extreme internal and external marketing exposure for a low price, consult with clients, quote prices and review qualifications, build powerful legal referral networks, easily develop new business, and take advantage of helpful attorney resources.
"Many of the legal sites out there are outdated and provide just one function, such as matching clients with attorneys or providing attorney resources," said Lawtomatic's CEO. "A lawyer will spend a bunch of money for the right to introduce himself on one of the other sites, for example, but the format doesn't allow him to ask and answer client questions and conduct a consultation online. Our goal is to make the entire experience between attorney and client more robust and transparent in a well-organized legal marketplace." Part of the motivation for creating the site was to help attorneys easily and cost-effectively grow their clientele in an ailing legal market.
The site's attorney services include a robust professional profile similar to those found in LinkedIn, with options for connecting to others in the legal profession. The site also provides individual attorney blogs, thousands of legal document templates, plus legal white papers for advanced learning and cutting edge ideas. "This is an easy, low-cost way for lawyers to join the digital revolution, get exposure to enormous numbers of potential clients, grow a practice and not get left behind."
The most unique feature of Lawtomatic.com is highly interactive private forums for each individual case that preserve the professional attorney-client relationship while allowing both attorneys and clients to take advantage of convenient new technology. Clients can post questions and receive answers from a variety of attorneys to find out more about their type of legal issue, as well as learn details about each lawyer and compare full price quotes.
Attorneys do not see client names or other attorney names, but they can see legal cases posted, choose cases to respond to, then introduce themselves, ask and answer questions and participate in what amounts to a group consultation, anonymously monitor price quotes from other attorneys, and post prices for their services. The site also includes peer endorsements and client reviews based on actual experiences in a way that makes sense.
Lawtomatic's COO and Director of Marketing points out that the client/attorney platform is a great way for attorneys to interview clients without having to book lengthy meetings and take multiple phone calls just to get an assignment. "It saves time, and time is money," he said. "Plus, the site has specifically been built to provide the most narrowly targeted online legal services marketing you can get. It's not going to cut it if we just provide simple client-attorney matching or random traffic that only focuses on pricing or bidding. We wanted to provide a means for attorneys to find highly interested clients in a robust legal services marketplace for a price that's a fraction of traditional marketing." Fees for attorneys to become members of Lawtomatic range from $49 to $79 per month, depending on services desired.
The site was painstakingly built with organic search engine results in mind. Attorney profiles are drastically optimized for search engines in the programming. All site activity is linked to a proprietary network of legal websites, so every time an attorney participates on the site with a blog post, client answer, posted price, article post, or other activity, it is broadcast across this network for additional exposure.
Lawtomatic provides a rich offering of patent-pending, innovative services to streamline the search for an attorney and provide extensive exposure for attorneys, while preserving the integrity of a private attorney-client relationship. The site also provides private and secure, case-by-case online environments for discussion, presentation of legal credentials, and pricing prior to engagement, plus thousands of legal forms, peer attorney endorsements, client reviews, and attorney blogs. Lawtomatic is owned and operated by a team of professionals with legal, business, website development, search engine optimization, and social media expertise.

Create Your Own Online Radio Station
By MCENTEE, Claire
SICK of the music on your local radio station? From Saturday you will be able to create your own personalised Internet radio station thanks to Paraparaumu-based company the Racket Media Group.
Managing director Rob Gordon says members of the company's website, www.theracket.co.nz, can sign up for a personal radio account for $20 a month and create a 500-song radio station, or a public radio account and create a 1000-song station for $30 a month.
The stations can be streamed to a PC, mobile phone or any other Web-enabled device.
Public stations will also be available on The Racket's public radio page for all members to listen to.
Members can choose from more than 140,000 songs from the "core catalogues" of major music labels such as Universal and EMI.
Mr Gordon says the public radio account will be particularly useful for bands, who will be able to advertise gigs and chat with fans.
"Something that is quite unique is unsigned artists can upload tracks and put them on the station and then also sell their singles on there.
"Ideally, within three to five years we will have more than 60,000 users."

Today there are 87 days until South Carolina Gamecocks kickoff their 2012 season. 87 is the number worn by Justice Cunningham. The senior tight end is originally from Pageland, SC. He is valued as much for his blocking as his catching ability. Over his South Carolina career, he has caught 26 passes for 254 yards. He will figure to be a blocking force on the field as well as a leader of the team off of it in 2012.

Death of Characters
By Calico5 0 Comments
There will never be a Superman, Captain America, Batman, Thor or Human Torch (Johnny Storm) that will flat out die. They have all have thought to be dead, but come back. Characters that have died especially in Marvel make reappearances like Jean Grey, Captain Marvel, and Thunderbird. The problem with all of this is there is no surprise or threat that a character may actually be lost forever, and thus give the book more weight and that character more value.
Yes, it is hard to kill off a character that people read because it brings in money, but when is Captain America ever going to give up his shield and retire? Probably never, thus his character will have to die at some point. The gravity of death and lose in the super hero community is quite sad, and not in the normal sense. It's sad because everyone just goes about their business and in the back of everyones mind they will be back. Nobody breaks the rules or loses it or even can't do the job for a couple issues because it is the norm. The supers that do die aren't even given the peace to be mourned most times.
Captain America is an exception with a funeral and a five part mini series dealing with grief, but then HE'S ACTUALLY ALIVE. Wow, nobody saw that coming did they? Finally a legendary character sent off in style, an outdated hero (he fought Hitler aka the time before computers, so yes outdated) sent off properly with characters mourning him and comics devoted to his loss. There is a statue of him for crying out loud! What happened when everyone found out he was alive they just took it down. Also, what happens when he actually dies? Is Tony Stark going to actually say something this time? Will all the bad guys stop fighting for a day so the heros may gather and mourn, again? Will he still be the hero he was or just an old man who outlived his friends, partners, and anyone who could recognize what he went through. This is just one example and it is bothersome.
Its hard to kill off a money making character. Its hard making most characters relevant to modern times. Retirement is almost impossible for most considering they have nothing else. Take Luke Cage and Jessica Jones, they have a CHILD!! Another life but no, not even they can walk away because it isn't THE way.
I must admit DC you've saved yourself once again. (Think back to Superboy Prime punching a hole in the universal wall, for the first time). The New 52 is original and the buildup of combining all the DC universes gives you a good place to start fresh. Most people who were around to see the start of Superman and Batman can't tell you what they were about because they don't know can't remember. BUT none of the old DC universe characters really died off, or if they did it was so close to the New 52 that it doesn't matter.
Why can't a great story be written to end a life of a iconic character? Most graphic novelists do it like Alan Moore. The Comedian and V both died, but their character status wasn't necessarily harmed, and in V's case it actually fit into the theme and character's development well.
It is probably also hard for the writers. They grow up reading a character only to find them die before they can get their hands on the story line and do what they want. Of course the writer will bring them back just to say what they've always wanted to. Personally, I would bring Icarus back as the new angel because of Archangel's apocalyptic issues. BUT Icarus is dead, and there's a 99.99% chance he will never come back unless someone in the higher ups in Marvel actually reads this.
Where does a lack of permanence to death in comics lead us? What can it say about the characters morality if they never die? What does it say about the one's that do?

OPM: Federal agencies open Thursday
Wednesday - 8/24/2011, 8:49pm EDT
By Julia Ziegler
Federal News Radio
Federal agencies in the Washington, D.C. area will be open Thursday, according to the Office of Personnel Management.
"Employees are expected to report to their worksite or begin telework on time," per the agency's website.
However, OPM also advised all employees to check with their individuals agencies and supervisors for the "most up-to-date information on the status of individual workplaces."
Some federal buildings, including the National Building Museum, Interior Department, and the National Archives facility in Suitland, Md., had been closed Wednesday following the 5.8 magnitude earthquake that shook the area Tuesday afternoon.
Of the federal buildings that Federal News Radio confirmed were closed yesterday, all but one now report on their agency websites they will be open Thursday, including the Federal Aviation Administration's headquarters buildings 10A and 10B.
However, the National Archives Washington National Records Center in Suitland, Md., will remain closed Thursday, according to the Archives website.
In an interview with Federal News Radio, Angela Bailey, OPM's associate director for employee services, discussed the issue of timing in posting the closures.
"We did have conversations with GSA and with ourselves on it's not really necessarily in OPM's swim lane to do building closures," Bailey said. "That's not what we do for a living but we just felt that in this particular situation it was really important for us to stand up and take a leadership role in this particular case. We clearly understood that it was a fluid situation. We clearly understood that we were probably going to get a few buildings wrong in the process, but we thought it was in everyone's best interest to take a leadership role and step up and do the best that we could to help and provide the list as we knew at that point in time."
The information on OPM's website came directly from GSA, Bailey said, and she added that OPM went through the list of closures one-by-one before posting to the site.
"We started double-checking, we started triple-checking," she said. So anything that was coming in from GSA, we were following it up with phone calls to the chief human capital officers to say, 'Is this your confirmation? Do you have the same information?' So we could reconcile everything that was going on."

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
All of which is to say: Not even the dreaded Brett Ratner can fuck up the template too badly. True, even at 104 minutes, X-Men: The Last Stand suffers from some hackish bloat. And nothing herenot even the climactic uprooting of the Golden Gate Bridge, levitated over San Francisco Bay and repurposed as a gangway to Alcatraz approaches the wit and bounce of X2's terrific set pieces (Magneto's haughty jailbreak, Nightcrawler's whirling-dervish White House attack). But thanks to lowered expectations (Ratner's previous film: After the Sunset) and in a season of economically disastrous disaster movies, the mere fact that this Memorial Day juggernaut is not a catastrophe should spell good news for a depressed industry.
The movie opens with human-mutant relations in a queasy truce: Troublemaking Magneto (Ian McKellen) is in hiding, his polymorphic sidekick Mystique (Rebecca Romijn) has been detained ("We have some new prisons," the secretary of Homeland Security declares), and the administration has established a Department of Mutant Affairs, headed by the hirsute, blue-skinned Dr. Hank McCoy, a/k/a Beast (Kelsey Grammer).
On paper, The Last Stand boasts the meatiest hook of the three X-films. A cure for mutancy is discovered, splitting the mutant population into those who welcome a reversion to normalcy (and assimilation into society) and those who consider it a fate worse than death. Given Singer's admirably unsubtle handling of the homo subtext, which reached a touching pinnacle in Iceman's coming-out-as-mutant scene in X2, the new film begs to be read, as Michael Musto noted in these pages last week, as an allegory about the ex-gay movement. Ratner and his committee of writers (the screenplay is credited to Simon Kinberg and Incident at Loch Ness director Zak Penn) make a few tentative stabs at nuance. Beast, walking fur ball that he is, notes the complications of covering, given that some mutants are more visibly mutated than others. Sensitive, sulky Rogue (Anna Paquin) is left to weigh the pros and cons of her scary power-sucking abilitiesthe biggest con being the impossibility of any hanky-panky with her boyfriend Iceman (Shawn Ashmore).
Despite the moral and ethical quandaries implicit in its premise, the movie soon turns simplistic. Dissolving the wary alliance of the previous film, The Last Stand reprises the age-old war between the moderates, represented by Patrick Stewart's sedate Professor Xavier, and the extremists, led by Ian McKellen's just-shy-of-queeny Magneto. As usual, the good guys, who also include Hugh Jackman's blandly brooding Wolverine and Halle Berry's Storm, promoted here to some sort of academy mother hen, get a little too much screen time. With mutant rights under threat, Magneto goes cruising for fresh meatand emerges with a gang of thuggy hotheads (including Aaron Stanford's Pyro and Vinnie Jones's Juggernaut), dressed to resemble extras from The Warriors. The movie stacks the deck by framing Magneto as an unambiguous terrorist, who even makes his own Osama-ish videos for the benefit of news broadcasts.
More intriguing than the good-versus-evil death match is the operatic implosion of the passions and jealousies that have progressively ensnared Wolverine, Cyclops (James Marsden), and the intense, enigmatic Jean Grey (Famke Janssen). A grieving Cyclops appears to summon his beloved Jean back from the watery grave where she sacrificed herself at the end of X2except she's resurrected as Phoenix, a mad maenad who favors flowing outfits and helplessly kills the ones she loves while looking like she's nursing a fierce migraine. (Squinting and perennially backlit, Janssen seems to have modeled her vein-popping performance on Drew Barrymore's in Firestarter.) Of course, the romantic triangle ends tragically, on a flaming pyre, no lessit's the movie's most satisfying moment, a grand articulation of the teenage truism that there is nothing more apocalyptic than impossible love.

"Probably Ruined my College..."
I never thought my teeth were horrible, but I did have a slight overjet and crowding. I wasn't insecure about them, but they certainly could have been improved upon. Then one day I found out that one of my baby teeth (there was no adult replacement) had a huge cavity and would need an implant or bridge. This alone would have cost $10,000 +, so my dentist have me the option of removing the... more

A man under house arrest in New Zealand wanted to go to jail because he'd run out of video games to play. What the Halo was he thinking?
Hope you've been enjoying our little League of Legends cosplay extravaganza, because we're bringing you even more great LoL cosplay! Look upon Shyvana, the half-dragon, in today's Cosplay of the Day.
We liked Nurse Akali so much that we hunted down an amazing cosplay of Akali in her default outfit. We simply couldn't believe our eyes when we found such an accurate costume.
How is the upcoming next-gen version of Call of Duty: Ghosts similar to the N64 classic Super Mario 64? They both have fish that swim away from you. Technology!
We're no fans of needles and hospitals, but we sure don't mind a pretty nurse when we see one. And in today's Cosplay of the Day, we welcome Nurse Akali, from League of Legends.
It seems like we've been all about the ninjas lately, here on Arcade Sushi. But I think we have room for just one more before the week is over, so let's welcome Soul Calibur's Taki, today's Cosplay of the Day.
Microsoft unveiled their new gaming console yesterday, and people were not impressed. Actually, they were pretty complain-y and grumpy about it. They don't like the name (Xbox One). They don't like all the features. They don't like any of it. (Particularly how the Microsoft folks pretty much just talked about TV the whole time.) They genuinely dislike it so much that they took the time to make memes about it. These really capture the gist of the problems people have with Xbox One.
Like clockwork, the Call of Duty machine keeps spinning. But are gamers getting Call of Duty fatigue? All signs point to yes. Cue developer and series creator Infinity Ward's new entry, subtitled "Ghosts."
It's got a lot of new. New engine. New characters. And a new setting. Is it enough to rope in retired armchair soldiers?
Microsoft detailed the specifications of its new Xbox One during the Tuesday Xbox Reveal event.
All this talk about the console port for Diablo 3 has us excited to crawl through dungeons and destroy creepy creatures for sweet, shiny loot. And we're also psyched to see some old friends like Leah, today's Cosplay of the Day.
Whether you're a big comic book nerd or not, I think we can all agree that Batman is bad ass! And if you like playing video games, I think you're going to be in for a treat. Warner Bros. has just released the trailer for the latest game in the "Arkham" series, "Batman: Arkham Origins."
Get a change of shorts, check out the trailer below and make sure you set aside around 70 bucks to pick this thing up October 25!

CORONA DEL MAR, Bill Cool: There have been seven amnesty laws passed since 1986 and now the American people are once again being promised that if we pass Senate bill S. 744, for 11 million illegal immigrants, we will never need another one in the future. Really?
|U.S. Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) (3rd R) talks to Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) (2nd R), and Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) (R) prior to a hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee April 19, 2013 on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC. The committee held a hearing on "Comprehensive Immigration Reform Legislation."
Such a claim should not be made unless Congress closes all loopholes for illegal immigration. A solution for one of the largest loopholes is not in the bill and is not even being considered. S. 744 is silent on the "anchor baby" issue which will ultimately doom the legislation as a failure unless this problem is adequately addressed.
No one knows how many anchor babies are born in the U.S. each year, but most estimates are well over 300,000. Most of these babies are in the welfare system and cost the tax payers tens of billions of dollars a year.
Pregnant women are coming to the U.S. to have children here to gain that valuable commodity – American citizenship. One example of this is the phenomenon known as birth tourism, where women will pay tens of thousands of dollars to have their babies in the U.S. so that they will automatically be Amerian citizens. In 2011, officials closed one of these 'maternity tourism' houses in California.
What would happen if Congress is miraculously able to eliminate every loophole for illegal entry into the U.S., but doesn't solve the anchor baby issue? Obviously that will become the primary means of getting around the immigration laws and, yes, it will eventually require another amnesty.
Immigration pandering
LAGUNA WOODS, Jennifer Marks: The effort to bring in high-skilled workers is just an effort to undercut American wages ["Talks could yield agreement for high-skilled worker," Business, May 17].
A foreign engineer from India will work for less money than an American engineer. A technology worker from China will accept a lower salary than an American techie. Twenty or thirty years ago, American construction workers made $20 plus an hour. Today, the massive influx of unskilled Mexican labor has so depressed construction wages that the average worker makes around $10-plus an hour.
High tech work visas do not help Americans. They help businesses lower employee costs. And they depress the American standard of living. Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, who is hopeful for changes to the U.S. visa program, should know this. It's likely that his proposed amendment is designed to assist select businesses at the expense of skilled American workers. His amendment has nothing to do with America's needs and everything to do with the corporate bottom line.
Patriotic journey
WHITTIER, Jim Jacobs: Thank you for David Whiting's column, "Vets ride to the Wall" [Front Page, May 17].
My wife and I were fortunate to have made the run in 2001. We put 10,000 miles and six weeks on our bike. The run started out as a POW Run but evolved into much, much more than that. It became a place where us common folk could express our patriotism and love for this country without being criticized by those on the far-left. The run ends in Washington D.C. and concludes with the Rolling Thunder Run on the Sunday before Memorial Day. You will find more of "Middle America" at Rolling Thunder than you will at any "Occupy Whatever" encampment.
Little did I know, as I road out of the Pentagon parking lot that May morning, that a little over three months later, that New York and the Pentagon would be attacked by terrorists.
There were about 125,000 riders in 2001 and in 2002 the ridership grew to 500,000. I'm glad to see it's now at 900,000.
On the other hand, the piece on Benghazi was embarrassing ["What happened and when did we know?" News, May 17]. A good portion of the article contradicted news stories that the Register has been printing for weeks. Perhaps it was designed to rehabilitate the tarnished reputation the Obama administration. During WWII, if the government wished to keep a secret, it did so with a "no comment." If identifying the attackers in the Benghazi attack would have somehow compromised our security, a simple "no comment" would have sufficed. To make up a story like the administration did in order to avoid embarrassment during an election year leaves us to wonder what else is the government is lying about.

One of the themes of the conference as well as one of the more important lessons we are learning as we in the industry deal with this volume of distressed debt, is that the same workout strategy will not work for every property. The type of collateral and the jurisdiction where the collateral is located are extremely important in determining the best workout strategy. In particular, lenders working out loans and buyers acquiring distressed debt all indicated that when analyzing distressed debt, it's all about "Location, Location, Location!" Now this is nothing new in the real estate market, but when it comes to distressed debt the location consideration is unique. Lenders and purchasers are asking whether this is a favorable location for foreclosure. Not surprisingly, lenders are learning that taking back a property in Texas through a non-judicial sale (which can be done in less than 1 month) is very different from foreclosing on a property in New York (which can take years). Similarly, certain states will allow receivers to step in and immediately control the cash at a property, but in other jurisdictions, the lender would need to prove that the owner is committing waste at the property before the court would even consider appointing a receiver, and even then, the receiver may be anything but an expert on managing real estate. In this case location is not just about value, but how quickly and efficiently the workout process can proceed.
As with many things during the great credit bubble, many did not focus on the variations in local foreclosure law and how it would impact their realization on the underlying real estate. Now that the issue is front and center, the question is, how long will we remember the lesson?

Gallery Paule Anglim is pleased to announce an exhibition of new paintings by Andrew Masullo, September 3rd through the 27th.
For many years Andrew Masullo has filled his studio home with small abstract oil paintings in a numbered series. On stretched canvas, these brightly-colored simple compositions trigger responses both serious and playful. Using a palette of nearly primary yet not quite pastel hues, he explores permutations of shape and color that provoke thoughtful comparison to great authors of abstract art while retaining the immediacy of a child's drawing.
Writer and curator Michael Duncan writes of Masullo's long term discipline:
With their generally modest scale... and deliberate execution, Masullo's works could be the outcome of discreet scientific experiments performed on unsuspecting lumps and blobs. If so, his lab is dedicated to the tradition of comic abstract painting that includes artists such as Miro, Klee, Arp, Calder, Paul Feeley, Myron Stout, Frederick Hammersley and Thomas Nozkowski. Fine company indeed.

Obama challenges GOP on health care, boosts Reid
The seven questions Obama took focused heavily on health care and the economy, giving the president an opportunity to dig into his standard talking points on those topics and to link the two issues.
Outside the school, about three dozen protesters waved signs. They showed dissatisfaction over a variety of issues, including the economy, health care and illegal immigration. "Dump Reid and Obama," said one sign.
Carla Montemayor, 61, from Henderson said she voted for Obama in 2008 but probably would not do so again. "I feel that he wasted time wooing the Republicans, trying to woo them over," she said. "He forgot about the jobs."
The president's appearance served many missions.
- He announced a $1.5 billion boost in public money to help people struggling to afford their mortgages to keep their homes, targeting the five states, led by Nevada, that have been hit hardest by the foreclosure crisis. "Government alone can't solve this problem," Obama said. "But government can make a difference." It was the latest move by a White House determined to show it is helping families rebound from a deep recession that is taking an election-year toll on Obama and his party. The money for the new rescue effort will come from the $700 billion financial industry bailout program.
- Also helping Reid, Obama tried to soothe hard feelings in Las Vegas, where leaders say the president has singled out Sin City as a symbol of irresponsible spending, particularly when he said people shouldn't gamble in Vegas with their college funds. He capped his Las Vegas trip with a speech to the city's Chamber of Commerce, where he delivered an apology - of sorts.
"Let me set the record straight, I love Vegas - always have," he said.
"It wasn't meant to be a shot," Obama said of his college savings remark. "I think everybody would agree that the only place people should spend their college savings is in college. ... But I understand how hard things have been here."
Associated Press writers Darlene Superville in Washington and Adrian Sainz and Oskar Garcia in Nevada contributed to this report.

Previously referred to as the 'Doom 3 Engine', Tech 4 is id Software's current licensing platform. Powering games such as Doom 3, Quake 4 and Enemy Territory Quake Wars, Tech 4 revolutionized the use of realtime dynamic lighting as well as other technologies.
About Doom III with 92 comments by Henley on Nov 23rd, 2011
On the 22nd of November the Doom 3 source code was released with a few changes and omissions.
Gamasutra wrote:The source does not contain any game data, which is still covered by the original EULA.
The source also does not include functionality enabling rendering of stencil shadows via the "depth fail" method (commonly called "Carmack's Reverse"), which lawyers from parent company Zenimax said might infringe on a patent for a Creative Labs 3D shading technique.
You can find the download here on ModDB Moddb.com it is recommended however if you are reading this in a few months that you seek out any official versions due to it might be a more recent update.
Source: Gamasutra.com
Back at QuakeCon in 2009 John Carmack announced that the Doom 3 source code would be released at some point in the future. Confirmed today at two years later at the 2011 QuakeCon that the very same source code will be made available to everyone after id's next game RAGE releases later this year.
VG247_liveblog wrote:Carmack said in his keynote that these releases of Id code are a "challenge to other developers," and are beneficial to both Id and "the community."
This means that a whole mess of modifications like the Dark Mod, Arx, Last Man Standing can release a almost indie version. It also means we might see some fantastic new endeavours being birthed because of this, maybe this will start another Team Fortress as we all know how well that worked out last time.

Author Bio
Known particularly for her novels of suspense, Iris Johansen has seen dozens of her books appear on the bestseller lists. Born in St. Louis, Missouri, Johansen was a voracious reader from an early age. Later, raising two children as a single mother, she worked as an airline reservations clerk and wrote in whatever free time she could eke out of her busy schedule. She sometimes arrived at the airport at five in the morning, so that she could have a quiet hour to herself, and she often wrote in the car while waiting for her son and daughter to finish their afterschool activities. (Her son, Roy, is now a screenwriter and has also collaborated with his mother on several novels.) After both had left for college, Johansen quit her job to try her hand at writing full-time. "I was just as voracious a writer as I was a reader," she recalled to one journalist. She began her career by penning romances--many of them for Bantam's "Loveswept" line--and soon became a familiar name to fans of the genre. In 1996, she branched out into crime fiction, publishing THE UGLY DUCKLING, about the victim of a brutal assault who is determined to get revenge on her attacker. Johansen has since become known for her recurring characters, and among the most popular of these is Eve Duncan, a forensic sculptor who creates likenesses based on remains too decomposed to be recognizable. Eve, who is haunted by the murder of her own young daughter, made her first appearance in FACE OF DECEPTION (1998). "[The idea] came from seeing a documentary on the Discovery Channel," Johansen has explained. "I had never heard of a forensic sculptor before. I thought ?What if?' A lot of great stories have come from ?What if?'" IRIS JOHANSEN'S THE KILLING GAME, a film based on one of the Eve Duncan books, aired on Lifetime television in 2011.
"Get ready for edge-of-your-seat thrills and roller-coaster emotions as Johansen gives her readers a bravura and satisfying conclusion!" (top pick) - Jill M. Smith 11/01/2011

Animal Welfare: a Win-Win Opportunity
02 Nov 12
Experts, academics, small-scale farmers, civil society and intergovernmental organizations came together today at the Salone del Gusto and Terra Madre 2012 to discuss the importance of introducing better animal welfare systems and supporting small-scale farmers in their implementation. With the proliferation of animal welfare standards set by the private sector, small-scale farmers risk not being able to stand up to the competition in terms of resources, technology and knowledge and seriously risk being increasingly marginalised. The speakers of the conference, jointly organized by Slow Food and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), collectively raised a voice in favour of making farmers the protagonists of this moment in which animal welfare is progressively being recognized as a common good and its benefit for farmers, animals and citizens alike are being understood.
Speakers included top animal welfare expert Mateus Paranhos Da Costa, who spoke about the importance of training programmes and how they can significantly improve the conditions of farm animals. Speaking about the situation of animal welfare in Brazil, Mateus underlined the importance of changing the focus from pointing out what is wrong to understanding how to solve the problem. Richard Haigh from the Zulu Sheep Presidium contributed to the meeting with his practical experience raising sheep and underlined that farming must revolve around responsibility, relationships, attitudes and legacy. Aurelia Maria Castellanos Quintero, of the Cuban Association of Animal Production emphasized the importance of spreading good practices of farmers through effective communication.
FAO data indicates that around 1 billion people depend on animals as a source of income, food, cultural identity and social status. It is estimated that 60% of families that live in rural areas keep animals. Animal welfare is of crucial importance to these communities, due to the fact that a secure supply of food depends on the health and productivity of animals, and these in turn depend on the care and nutrition that animals receive. The livelihood of farming families and the link with animal welfare will therefore be an issue of attention in 2014, the UN declared International Year of Family Farming.
The conference Animal Welfare: a Win-Win Opportunity for Animals, Farmers and Consumers, set the basis for a collaboration that will lead to an in-depth analysis of the links between animal and food security and safety, human and animal health, protection of biodiversity, economical and environmental sustainability and the livelihood of small-scale farmers. The collaboration will also target young farmers and leverage their high sensibility on these issues.

Colorado Sheriff Justin Smith Answers: Can The Secret Service Really Arrest A Sheriff?
I wrote a story earlier this week about the possibility of the Secret Service being authorized to arrest Sheriff's across the country if they fail to uphold new gun control laws. Just a few minutes ago, I received a very nice email from Larimer County Sheriff Justin Smith who wants to clarify a few things.

A Connecticut judge will hold a hearing later this month to determine whether a 9-year-old girl can testify about her father -- who has called a "monster" in newspaper headlines -- in an effort to save him from being sentenced to death.
Judge Jon C. Blue set the hearing date for Nov. 14, indicating that the death penalty phase of Joshua Komisarjevsky's triple murder trial still has many witnesses to hear from. The jury of seven women and five men has already been hearing witnesses for eight days.
Komisarjevsky, 32, was convicted last month of of the murders of Hawke-Petit, 48, and Hayley Petit, 17, and the sexual assault and murder of Michaela Petit, 11.
Their bodies were found in the charred remains of the house. The girls were alive and tied to their beds when the fire began, and the triple murder has been called the most horrific crime in Connecticut's history.
His accomplice, Steven Hayes, has already been sentenced to death and is on Connecticut's death row.
Defense attorneys have filed a subpoena to have Komisarjevsky's daughter testify, but prosecutors have fought the motion.
It is not known what the child might say on her father's behalf, but because of the brutal nature of the crimes and the enormous media attention surrounding the case, the defense team faces a tough fight trying to convince the jury to spare Komisarjevsky's life. Testimony from a 9-year-old girl could be crucial to humanizing Komisarjevsky who has been described as a "monster" in the press.
An attorney hired to represent the girl, Raymond M Hassett, would not say whether or not he is in favor of the girl testifying, although he has submitted a motion to quash the subpoena. But Hassett told reporters outside the courtroom today that they "shouldn't read too much into that" because he would "leave it up to the court to weigh all the factors."
Those factors would no doubt include the psychological impact on the girl of testifying and the type of questions she would have to answer. Blue is expected to hear testimony from a mental health professional during the closed door session on Nov. 14.
In April, another lawyer hired to represent the girl, Justine Rakich-Kelly, the executive director of the Children's Law Center filed a motion with the judge to protect the girl's privacy by referring to her by a pseudonym.
Shortly after her father was arrested in 2007 for the murders, Komisarjevsky's daughter, who was 5 at the time, received a threatening letter. Attorneys and witnesses have so far not referred to her by name in court and ABC News is withholding her name.
During the penalty phase of the trial, defense attorneys have presented witnesses including Komisarjevsky's sister, Naomi Komisarjevsky and his aunt, Carlie Lebatique, who have testified that he was a loving father. Komisarjevsky's aunt told the jury this week that if her nephew was put to death "It would not be good for his daughter."
The women also told the jury they did not think Komisarjevsky was responsible for murdering the women, but was following the lead of his accomplice Steven Hayes.
Komisarjevsky had won sole custody of the girl just one month before the July 23, 2007 murders. Jurors have seen photographs taken inside the Komisarjevsky home during a police search that showed the little girl's drawings stuck to the refrigerator. Transcripts of text messages Komisarjevsky sent to Hayes just hours before the two men invaded the Petit home said "Dude, I'm putting the kid to bed hold your horses."
A number of studies have been done on the effects of testifying in a trial on children. "Criminal court testimony is associated with fear and anxiety for a substantial subset of children," according to a study done in the 1990's at University of California, Davis. "The adversarial, formal, and possibly even hostile court environment during a hearing and especially a trial is a source of a child witnesses' fear and distress."
Although it is becoming more common for children to testify in court, it is almost unheard of for a child to testify in a death penalty sentencing hearing.

The Rogers Sisters
The Invisible Deck
Too Pure/Beggar's Group
A twitchy dance-rock combo (non-electroclash division) that was playing Brooklyn house parties before they'd settled on a name, the Rogers Sisters first came across as a footnote to the crop of like-minded acts New York produced circa Y2K. But with early adopters either undergoing rapid stylistic shifts (Black Dice, Liars) or simply failing to live up to the hype (the Rapture, anybody?), the trio is beginning to sound like survivors. Named for a trick-card effect well-known in magic circles, The Invisible Deck doesn't radically rethink the dynamic forged on 2003's Purely Evil, but it does add a few new wrinkles to a subgenre that's otherwise closing in on its sell-by date.
Producer Tim Barnes, the Silver Jews drummer best known for his improv collaborations with Sonic Youth, wisely leaves the band's signature virtue intact--namely, the vocal interaction between Jennifer and Laura Rogers's chirpiness and non-sibling Miyuki Furtado's unforced rock delivery. What Barnes brings to the table is the means, or at least the license, for the members to spread their wings as instrumentalists. The thudding toms-and-maracas undertow of the opening "Why Won't You" would have been unthinkable on earlier releases. So would the rich guitar tones of "Money Matters," which begins with a sweeping electric-acoustic blend boosted from "Love Will Tear Us Apart" before detonating a barrage of Goo-ey squalls.
Unfortunately, the group's new sonic confidence isn't always matched by their material. "Your Littlest World" justifies its 6:41 with trippy, flute-and-feedback textures, but the even longer "Sooner or Later," chorus aside, is a monochord meander only a Krautrocker could love. Nothing here balances goofiness and gravity as arrestingly as the debut's global-warming-themed "Zero Point," though "The Clock" comes close, as references to "Three Blind Mice" ("the butcher's wife/a carving knife") interrupt a countdown to who-knows-what ("The clock struck one...the clock struck none"), sung by Furtado and one of the Rogers with an abandon that only increases the mystery. Even with its inconsistencies, The Invisible Deck has the unmistakable sound of a band finding its own way after its scene's moment in the limelight has passed.

Pyrolysis Plant Cost for South America, Africa and Asia Is Lower Now
In order to develop the market for recycling and utilization of scrap tires, mechanical rubber goods, waste oils, oil sludge, plastics and wood waste in South America, Africa and Asia, the Technokomplex company (http://www.tkomplex.ru) introduces new terms of cooperation, involving special prices for the pyrolysis plants in these regions.
Rostov-on-Don, Russia (PRWEB) March 26, 2014
Technokomplex sets up a special price policy for the countries of South America, Africa and Asia, according to which the pyrolysis plants cost starts from 38 300 Euro.
According to statistics from the past three years, the given regions have a strong demand in such pyrolysis systems, even despite the geographical distance from Russia.
Taking into account the economic and environmental situations in the regions, Technokomplex has made a decision to amend its agreements and include the discounted price, which makes the pyrolysis equipment more accessible. Other changes mostly touch upon the structural features, responsible for the equipment adjustment to operation in hot climate.
Besides the pyrolysis machinery itself, the discounted price is relevant to the auxiliary equipment – the KVARK-500 Drum Furnace for sorbent and active coal production and the UGLAS-800 Gas Generator for electricity production.
Therefore practically the entire range of the Technokompex equipment is going to be supplied to the countries of South America, Arica and Asia on easy terms. Hopefully, this will help to expand the market for recycling and utilization and will have a positive impact on environmental condition of these countries.
Technokomplex, a small-scale pyrolysis plant manufacturer and supplier, presents pyrolysis machine and auxiliary equipment for processing the products like pyrolysis carbon and liquid fuel into commercial fractions. The company has begun its business in the field of utilization in 2005 and since that time it continues to develop successfully. Today equipment manufactured by the company operates in many cities of Russia, Bulgaria, Turkey and the USA.

The University of Texas won the Regional Championship of the Philip C. Jessup International Law Moot Court Competition held February 16th-18th at Chapman University School of Law in Orange, California. UT Law will now go on to compete in the Shearman & Sterling International Rounds of the Jessup Competition. The international rounds will be held in Washington, D.C., from March 27th through April 1st.
This year's UT team consists of Noah Balch ('06), Teresa Chin ('06), Monica Jimenez ('07), Suzanne Potter ('06) and Natasha Self ('06). During the regional rounds, Chin and Self prevailed over the team from DePaul University College of Law in the semi-final round sending Balch and Potter to the final round where they beat Santa Clara University School of Law. Teresa Chin won the award for Best Advocate. This year's team is coached by Chris Sapstead ('01). Although Sapstead has coached several UT moot court teams, four of which have won national championships, this is Sapstead's first year to coach the Jessup team .
The Jessup competition was first held in 1960. Jessup is administered by the International Law Students Association (ILSA) and is widely recognized as the largest and most prestigious international law moot court competition in the world. Last year, 543 teams from 85 countries participated in the competition worldwide and even more teams competed this year. The University of Texas began competing in Jessup in 1962 and has held the World Championship Cup four times, more than any other U.S. team, and is tied with the National University of Singapore School of Law for the most world championships won by any law school.

If you were in a burning house and there was a cat and a Rembrandt, what would you save The cat...you would save the cat, because the cat is alive. The art is dead. It's just paint on a canvas, ink on a page. To live for art is to deny life. It's just to destroy life.
Illusions are art, for the feeling person, and it is by art that you live, if you do.
In all things, to serve from the lowest station upwards is necessary. To restrict yourself to a trade is best. For the narrow mind, whatever he attempts is still a trade; for the higher, an art; and the highest in doing one thing does all, or, to speak less paradoxically, in the one thing which he does rightly he sees the likeness of all that is done rightly.
In art, all who have done something other than their predecessors have merited the epithet of revolutionary and it is they alone who are masters.
In general, the art of government consists in taking as much money as possible from one part of the citizens to give to the other.
In human life, art may arise from almost any activity, and once it does so, it is launched on a long road of exploration, invention, freedom to the limits of extravagance, interference to the point of frustration, finally discipline, controlling constant change and growth.
In other countries, art and literature are left to a lot of shabby bums living in attics and feeding on booze and spaghetti, but in America the successful writer or picture-painter is indistinguishable from any other decent businessman.
In our day the conventional element in literature is elaborately disguised by a law of copyright pretending that every work of art is an invention distinctive enough to be patented.
In our life there is a single color, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love.
In peace, continue your art; in war, continue your art; in freedom, continue your art; in captivity, continue your art!
In popular terms visual art is just another form of social entrepreneurship and visual journalism that uses communication of emotional level. So let's be clever in what we converse about.
In spite of my great admiration for individual splendid talents I do not accept the star system. Collective creative effort is the root of our kind of art. That requires ensemble acting and whoever mars that ensemble is committing a crime not only against his comrades but also against the very art of which he is the servant.
In the height of thy prosperity expect adversity, but fear it not. If it come not, thou art the more sweetly possessed of the happiness thou hast, and the more strongly confirmed. If it come, thou art the more gently dispossessed of the happiness thou hadst, and the more firmly prepared.
In the middle of a perfect tranquillity, it is an art to imagine about the nightmares of storms!
In the works of the better poets you get the sensation that they're not talking to people any more, or to some seraphical creature. What they're doing is simply talking back to the language itself --as beauty, sensuality, wisdom, irony --those aspects of language of which the poet is a clear mirror. Poetry is not an art or a branch of art, it's something more. If what distinguishes us from other species is speech, then poetry, which is the supreme linguistic operation, is our anthropological, indeed genetic, goal. Anyone who regards poetry as an entertainment, as a read, commits an anthropological crime, in the first place, against himself.
In theatre, the main objective is to make the art happy, not the audience! If you have to choose between the audience and the art, always choose the second! You must know that the audience will always pull you down; resist it and fly at the heights like an eagle!
In trying to be perfect, he perfected the art of anonymity.
Increase in goodness as long as thou art here, that, when thou departest, in that thou mayest still be joyful. According to our words and deeds in this life will be the remembrance of us in the world.
Interfacing street sculpture in public space creates an installation environment that turns regular space into art space. Signs and people and everything around a street sculpture—they all become part of it. A two-dimensional work, being confined to surfaces, doesn't have as much of a capacity."
Is this a dagger which I see before me,
It has always been difficult for Man to realize that his life is all an art. It has been more difficult to conceive it so than to act it so. For that is always how he has more or less acted it.
It has been my fate in a long life of production to be credited chiefly with the equivocal virtue of industry, a quality so excellent in morals, so little satisfactory in art.
It is art that makes life, makes interest, makes importance and I know of no substitute whatever for the force and beauty of its process.
It is commonly supposed that the art of pleasing is a wonderful aid in the pursuit of fortune; but the art of being bored is infinitely more successful.
It is only an auctioneer who can equally and impartially admire all schools of art.
