Summary of Q2 2016 Estimated ETF Flows and Trends
All net inflow and outflow numbers are estimates based on information provided by Morningstar.

In the second quarter, Alternative Investments ("Alternatives") generally had positive performance with tangible assets (commodities and real estate) posting strong returns. Managed futures was a notable outlier with a negative 2nd quarter, lagging not only other Alternative categories but traditional asset classes as well. Year-to-date, most Alternative categories are keeping pace or outperforming traditional asset classes, with once again tangible assets leading the way. Short bias strategies have had considerable success most likely due to a combination of periodic freefalls in the broader equity markets, increased volatility, and wider dispersion in both sector and single name returns. Lagging categories were primarily focused in the equity markets (hedged equity and equity market neutral). Managed futures, commodities, and global macro historically have shown low correlations to stocks and bonds and based upon monthly correlations over the past two years, this continues to be the case. Other Alternative categories, while having higher correlations with equities, generally do so with considerably less volatility.

Following the dramatic spread-widening and subsequent sharp reversal during the first quarter, the Barclays Corporate Index option-adjusted spread (OAS)1 rallied back to roughly unchanged for the year by the beginning of the second quarter. The spread rally continued into the second quarter, as fears about growth in China subsided and sentiment in the oil and basic materials markets steadily improved. However, as the May new issue calendar reached the highest monthly level on record, and as the Federal Reserve (Fed) stepped up its hawkish rhetoric, the rally stalled and spreads widened modestly into June. And then things got interesting.
1Option-adjusted spread is the spread relative to a risk-free interest rate, usually measured in basis points (bp), that equates the theoretical present value of a series of uncertain cash flows of an instrument to its current market price. OAS can be viewed as the compensation an investor receives for assuming a variety of risks (e.g. liquidity premium, default risk, model risk), net of the cost of any embedded options. A larger OAS implies a greater return for greater risks.
Emerging markets enjoyed a positive second quarter to end the first half of 2016, despite the ongoing uncertainty plaguing developed market economies. For developed markets, negative interest rates, lethargic economic growth and geo-political concerns like "Brexit" dominated the agenda.
By contrast, emerging markets have rebounded strongly from the volatility we saw in the first quarter of 2016. As an indication, the most widely followed benchmark, the JP Morgan GBI-EM Global Diversified Index returned 2.71% for the second quarter and 14.02% year-to-date. The yield on the benchmark index declined 19 basis points (bps) to 6.33% at the end of the quarter. Over the same period, the yield on 5-yr maturity U.S. Treasury bonds declined 21 basis points to 1.0%.
Following the solid first quarter performance for closed-end funds (CEFs) when the average CEF was positive by 2.73%, the positive momentum continued during the second quarter, with the average CEF up another 6.33%. Indeed, after grinding through a challenging 2015 (particularly the back half of the year), diversified CEF investors have been rewarded with very strong total returns year-to-date with the average CEF now up over 9% through 6/30/2016 (source: Morningstar. All data is share price total return data).
The positive gains were broad based during the quarter with equity CEFs up an average of 7.94%, taxable fixed income CEFs up 6.06% and municipal CEFs up 6.12%. While each category of the CEF marketplace has different factors which impact performance, broadly speaking, some of the factors which continue to benefit many CEFs include: higher equity prices (particularly U.S. equities), declining long-term rates and continued "Plow Horse" (as our Economics team phrases it) economic growth in the U.S. economy which helps to create a positive backdrop for many credit sensitive CEFs. Lastly, high distributions and attractive discounts to net asset values (NAVs), particularly for equity and credit sensitive categories (more on that below,) also helped to attract buyers to the secondary market during the quarter.

1st Quarter 2016 Municipal Market Performance and Highlights
While municipal bonds posted positive total returns during the first quarter of 2016, munis lagged other asset classes including U.S. Treasuries. The Barclays Municipal Bond Index returned 1.67% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, while the Barclays Municipal 10 Year Revenue Index had a total return of 1.98%. In comparison, the Barclays U.S. Treasury Index returned 3.20% for the three months ended March 31, 2016. (Source: Barclays, SIFMA.org)
Risk adjusted returns for municipal bonds relative to other asset classes remained attractive during the first quarter.
Retail demand for municipal bonds remained robust during the first quarter of 2016. Municipal fund flows increased 71.8% to $14.9 billion during the first quarter compared to $8.71 billion for the same time period a year ago. (Source: Barclays, Investment Company Institute)
New issue supply has not followed the significant increase in municipal fund flows. Primary market issuance declined just under 9% to $98.8 billion in the first quarter of 2016. During the first three months of 2015, issuance totaled $108.4 billion. (Source: Barclays, SIFMA)
Municipal credit quality remains healthy. During the first quarter, Moody's upgraded more municipal credit ratings than downgraded, the third such consecutive quarter. In addition, defaults continued to decline. According to data provided by MMA, the number of defaults totaled just 8 borrowers compared to 18 borrowers a year ago. One caveat to the continuing decline in number of defaulting borrowers, however, is the par value of defaults increased year-to-date due to Puerto Rico related nonpayers.

Summary of Q1 2016 ETF Flows and Trends¹
Click Here to continue reading.
¹Based on Morningstar data, as of 3/31/16.
After a difficult first six weeks of the year, most categories of the closed-end fund (CEF) marketplace rallied strongly during the second half of the first quarter. Indeed, the average CEF finished the quarter up 2.73% on a share price total return basis (According to Morningstar). At the start of the first quarter, many CEFs were negatively impacted by the significant sell-off in the global equity markets, decline in oil prices (which impacted the credit markets) and an overall palpable risk-off mentality that clearly existed among retail investors. However, by the middle of the quarter as the equity markets began to rally, oil prices firmed and some reassuring economic data was released, investors began to take advantage of the wider-than average historical discounts to net asset value (NAV) which existed for many CEFs and performance began to improve meaningfully during the last half of the quarter.

Hill 488by Charles W. Sasser Ray Hildreth
For some, Hill 488 was just another landmark in the jungles of Vietnam. For the eighteen men of Charlie Company, it was a last stand. This is the stirring combat memoir written by Ray Hildreth, one of the unit's survivors. On June 13, 1966, men of the 1st Recon Battalion, 1st Marine Division were stationed on Hill 488. Before the week was over, they would fight the battle that would make them the most highly decorated small unit in the entire history of the U.S. military, winning a Congressional Medal of Honor, four Navy Crosses, thirteen Silver Stars, and eighteen Purple Hearts -- some of them posthumously. During the early evening of June 15, a battalion of hardened North Vietnamese regulars and Viet Cong -- outnumbering the Americans 25-to-1 -- threw everything they had at the sixteen Marines and two Navy corpsmen for the rest of that terror-filled night. Every man who held the hill was either killed or wounded defending the ground with unbelievable courage and unflagging determination -- even as reinforcements were on the way. All they had to do was make it until dawn....

Aug 27, 2011 Sam rated it it was ok · review of another edition
As autobiographies go, I wasn't too keen on this one. Charlotte focuses so much on her career that she is lost as a person and comes across as nothing but a singer. Yes it has been a big part of her life from a relatively young age but there must be more to her than she puts across in this book other than just the occasion moment of normality that seems to be the story she puts across. From this I get the feeling that Charlotte values her privacy but if that is the case don't write an autobiogra ...more
Mar 18, 2009 Anna rated it it was amazing
I just love Charlotte Church. I'd read/watch/listen to anything she made, so this was really a no-brainer. It's not the most sophisticated writing in the world, but it's definitely her voice, complete with swears and British slang and turns-of-phrase I don't understand and hilarious, cheeky asides. This was one of the most enjoyable things I read all year; I'm so glad I finally broke down and bought it.

I've always loved Charlotte Church for her spunky personality and she just really doesn't give a shit what anyone thinks. Unfortunately, I didn't get much of that in this book. I believe that she was very open and honest with everything as far as her career. I just didn't really feel as though I got to know her any better as a person.
Sep 27, 2010 Colleen rated it it was amazing · review of another edition
Although I'm not a fan of Charlotte's classical stuff I am a fan of her pop career and television show. I am in the middle of reading her book and I love how she's honest and open about everything that has happened in her life. I love a good autobiography/biography that's honest and open about everything.
Aug 12, 2011 Kelly Smeeton rated it really liked it
Good book and you can definitely hear her voice in the writing, though it's written by a ghost writer. Does make you think about the press and how they spin things. She's had an interesting life!

I say I'm currently reading it...in other words I got to somewhere in the middle and got bored! I bought this book for my holiday however was not what I expected. Now I've read some of this book, I'm not really a fan on charlotte church anymore! The book was boring and dull, going into depth about boring subject's lol!
May 25, 2016 Linda rated it really liked it
I listened to the abridged audiobook of this title. Interesting to hear about Charlotte's life/career from Charlotte own point of view. A very candid book that is a good read. However, the frequent use of profanity throughout the book ;did grate on me somewhat - I have to be honest

Wine Details
Winemaker's Notes
(From 2004 Vintage) The stylistic goal of Hourglass is to achieve a seamless balance of fruit concentration with the elegance of more subtle nuances driven by its terroir. Drawing from its Napa Valley origin, Hourglass has a forward depth of fruit, yet is not a "fruit bomb". Saturated mid-palate texture is again balanced by lively acidity, which rolls into a refined finish. Moderately high alcohol is balanced against integrated sweet oak, and depth of fruit. Aromatics play as important a role as texture, or flavor. Nuances of black licorice, mint, eucalyptus, earth, coffee/toffee, crème-de-cassis, read more...and pomegranate, blend back and forth between aroma, and taste. (hide)

PR.com has announced several upgrades and enhancements to its press release distribution service. This includes distribution to Yahoo News, social bookmarking, enhanced distribution via industry regional distribution channels, file attachments, and a PDF version of the press release.
While other press release distribution services offer similar features, the pricing for PR.com ranges from free to $199 a year for its high visibility option and $499 a year for its maximum visibility option.
Here are some of the enhancements and upgrades now available at PR.com:
? Yahoo News
PR.com already distributed press releases to Google News, Topix.com, and other smaller news search engines. Now, it has added Yahoo News, the #1 visited news site, for those selecting the enhanced visibility level for their release.
? Social Bookmarking
PR.com now provides the ability for people to add a press release to social bookmarking sites, such as Digg and Del.icio.us. While the Digg community rarely promotes press releases and tends to bury them, most of the other press release distribution services offer this feature. So, PR.com has jumped on the bandwagon.
? Industry Distribution Channels and Regional Distribution Channels
By default, each press release is distributed globally. However, for those seeking industry focused news, each press release may now be additionally distributed to "Industry Distribution Channels" selected for the release. And, for those seeking relevant local news, each press release may now be additionally distributed to "Regional Distribution Channels" selected for the release. Of course, if you really want to reach targeted online media, there's no substitute for pitching them personally by email or phone. No online press release distribution newswire can replace the art of the schmooze.
? File Attachments
You can now attach .gif, .jpg, .pdf, audio or video files, or Word documents to a press release. Again, other press release distribution services offer this feature — but, generally, at higher prices.
? PDF Version of the Press Release
A PDF version of the press release is automatically generated and made available for use for readers to download. While this creates duplicate content for the regular search engines, some people who want to forward an press release to others like this option.

After a remarkable Cinderella run through the SEC men's basketball tournament, the University of Georgia had the tables turned against it in Omaha. After knocking out superior foes earlier in the tournament, it appeared - on paper - that UGA should have little problem dispatching a Fresno State team that was working with a exhausted, makeshift pitching staff. But - as we all know - games aren't played on paper, they're played inside TV sets.
It took a great bottom of the 8th rally to win Game 1. Other than that 8th inning, this series wasn't really close. It caps off a roller coaster season for UGA that saw them win the regular season SEC championship, get swept at the SEC Tournament, lose a Regional game to Lipscomb before beating arch rival Georgia Tech twice to advance to a Super Regional. There, they took 2/3 from NC State before rolling to the Championship Series in Omaha.
Based on recent history, UGA will not be very good next year, but will be back in Omaha in 2010.
As an aside, hats off to Fresno State. They're a fun team to watch and played their hearts out. It's cliche, but it seemed they just wanted it more than UGA did. At least it wasn't an ACC team that won it. After listening to those pompous fans gloat all season about how great the ACC was, it was satisfying to watch their teams drop like flies in Omaha.

Do it all yourself or rely on a specialized company? Rules and advice to move house on the cheap, without stress or inconvenience …
may interest
The stress of the move. The three main causes of stress: bereavement, separation and removal (from a survey of Italian Psychology Association).
How to tackle a move. The best way to tackle a move is to prepare early. This will decrease the workload on the days of the transfer and spending less, being able to choose the cheapest offer.
Alone or with a company? The first decision: to move on their own or rely on a specialized company. In the first case definitely spending will be lower, but you must have the manual dexterity skills, help from friends or family members and furniture not too bulky to carry. moversinhoustontx.net
The move do-it-yourself. Here's what to do-it-yourself is necessary for a move:
• a van. If you book in advance costs 60/80 USD per day with unlimited mileage. A van of 14 cubic meters capacity allows you to make a move for a house of 50 square meters with only two trips;
• boxes (typically 30 × 40 cm and 40 × 50 cm) and tape wrapping (read all rules for canning);
• tape bubble wrap (bubble wrap);
• old blankets and ropes to tie the furniture in the van.
Disassembles and assembles. The most complicated part of the move do-it-yourself is the dismantling and reassembly of furniture, in particular kitchen (many blogs and specialized sites recommended to leave it to the new tenant, if you do not have an excessive value).
The economy of the boxes. Alan Greenspan, when he was head of the Federal Reserve, he wanted to see how the first economic indicator cardboard consumption with which they make the moving boxes, "because the greater the consumption of cardboard, there are more moving, more apartments are changed or occupied and the economy grows. "
The inventory, the first thing to do. In case you want to rely on a firm, the first thing you need to do an inventory of everything you have to carry and what you can eliminate. It is then good to ask an estimate to as many companies as possible. In most cases you can have an estimate of the online expenses: among many removal sites include: www.traslochi-online.it, www.traslocare.com, www.iotrasloco.it.
Reduce services, the secret of moving low-cost. For a low-cost move it is necessary to reduce the bone the requested services to the company:
• give up packaging service, which costs on average € 20 per hour or € 03.02 per box (up to 10 USD for the larger boxes);
• give the disassembly and reassembly of furniture, so are asked 20/25 € per hour;
• bring the cartons closed on street level to save time and money.
We combine removals. www.traslochinazionali.org aggregates more moving in the same day in the same area of the city. This kind of service obviously requires a more flexible schedules to by the customer, but allows you to save up to 30%.
Practical advice. Some tips to save money and not have negative surprises:
• avoid the months when it is more frequent change of home (June, July and September) allows you to save 10-15%;
• make a list of objects to carry, making it approved by the head of the firm;
• photograph or film all objects before you pack them, if they break in transportation, and test the appliance in the presence of the person responsible;
• If after the move you notice that your furniture has been damaged, you have eight days to send a registered letter to the company that carried out the work;
• ensuring fragile or valuable items: on average the cost of insurance is 1% or 2% of the value of the load. You can take out a policy directly with the company that makes the move or with external insurance.
Additional costs. If you can not deliver the furniture through stairs or elevator, you need to hire a truck: the cost is 300-400 USD per day, including the technician who maneuver. Then if you move from city to city, the soaring prices: on average 1 / 1.50 USD for every kilometer to go. For example, the additional cost for a move from Rome to Milan is 600/900 USD.
If the mover is abusive. Attention to rely on not serious companies. In case of control by firefighters or police, if the mover is abusive it risks the seizure of furniture.
Moving with plants and animals. If you have animals or plants, it is unwise to entrust transportation to a company, the better deal in person. However, there are companies that provide, at extra cost, an ad hoc service (www.italianmovingnetwork; www.traslochionline.it).
Moving with children. Moving is a big change especially for the little ones. We should first talk to the time of the change, give reasons, describe the new apartment. Visit the new home before the little help to adapt. If you can not go in person, the pictures of the site can serve.
Lost items. Marisa Tomei during moving he lost the Oscar won in 1993 for My Cousin Vinny.
Ecological relocation. More and more people trying to respect ecological criteria during the move. Here are some of the precautions:
• renting reusable plastic crates and reusable rather than cardboard. They do not generate garbage and do not crush.
• use less newsprint possible to wrap delicate items, or use recycled paper (which by the way does not stain objects);
• if using cardboard and paper boxes, make sure that the moving company take charge of disposing of these materials in authorized recycling centers;
• If possible, share the move with other people using the same truck.

Welcome to Hospitality and Events North
Good marketing is key to our success and return on investment is something we are keen to ensure.

York Conferences launched their 'Desmond the Duck' campaign over 2013 to raise the brand and the profile of York Conferences.

Heinrich Hertel
|This article does not cite any sources. (June 2009) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Heinrich Hertel (13 November 1901 – 1982) was a German aeronautical engineer.
After graduating as an engineer from Munich Technical College, he joined the Junkers company in 1926. In 1932, he was recruited by Ernst Heinkel and two years later was made the Technical Director of the Heinkel company — within which Siegfried and Walter Günter were already well-established as top engineers — where he oversaw many projects including the Heinkel He 100 and He 111.
In May 1939 he returned to the Board of Directors at Junkers where he was closely connected with the development of the Junkers Ju 288 and Ju 248. In February 1945, he also worked on a project of the Dornier Do 635, one of the twin boom fighter aircraft developed from Dornier Do 335 but the project was cancelled in 1945.
After World War II, Hertel worked in France before returning to Germany in 1950 to teach aeronautics in Berlin. From 1959 until his retirement in 1977 he worked as a technical consultant for Focke-Wulf in Bremen.

For the second quarter of 2016, Delaware Smid Cap Growth Fund (Institutional Class shares and Class A shares at net asset value) underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2500TM Growth Index. While performance was largely driven by stock exposure, on a sector level, consumer discretionary and financials were the largest detractors from performance.
Bio-Techne was a contributor to the Fund's performance during the quarter as the company reported that its organic revenue increased by 8%. The company had positive performance in China despite a currency drag overall. Prospects for Maurice, a newer Protein Platform instrument, is exceeding expectations. We believe Bio-Techne holds a unique competitive position in manufacturing biotechnology cultures and other products that are instrumental to drug discovery and treatment.
Pandora Media was a contributor to performance during the quarter. A 13D filing by Corvex Management, an activist hedge fund, revealed that it had taken an 8.3% stake in Pandora; Corvex is pushing the company towards a sale, which should increase pressure on Pandora's management to deliver shareholder value in a timely manner. Additionally, there appears to be a strong likelihood that Pandora will negotiate some on-demand direct deals with major labels. While there are ongoing concerns about increased competition in the streaming music service environment, we continue to believe that Pandora offers a differentiated user experience. We believe that the company, as an industry leader in streaming music services, should continue to benefit from the proliferation of wireless and streaming devices that makes Pandora's services even more accessible, whether as a standalone entity or acquisition target.
Yelp also contributed to performance during the quarter as the company's earnings beat expectations and forward guidance. Local advertising revenue was strong. Additionally, the company hired a new CFO, Lanny Baker, who intends to focus on driving more merchants through self-serve portals as well as transactions across all verticals.
VeriFone Systems detracted from the Fund's performance during the quarter. The company missed earnings and lowered revenue guidance for the year, due to ongoing softness in media and advertising sales, next-generation hardware certification delays in the U.S. small/mid-size business market and resulting product shift, more competitive pricing dynamics, and a general slowdown in emerging markets (for example, Brazil). The company is responding by reducing headcount and performing a strategic review to address underperforming areas of the business. VeriFone is now seen by some as an attractive target for private equity interest. We continue to believe the company is well positioned to benefit from the secular trend towards electronic forms of payments despite these temporary setbacks. We anticipate that higher margin, next generation products should have meaningful impact in 2017.
Zebra Technologies was a detractor to performance during the quarter. The company saw revenue fall 5% during the quarter as pipeline sale conversions have reached all-time lows. The decline in organic revenue seems to be a result of the sales environment and destocking by channel partners rather than a loss in competitive position. We continue to believe the acquired technology from the Motorola deal should allow the company to offer enhanced next-generation products to fulfil today's needs, despite near term drops in demand.
LendingClub was a detractor to performance during the quarter. Early in May, CEO Renaud Laplanche was asked to step down as a result of an internal review that discovered control deficiencies and found that he had violated firm business practices. The company has come under regulatory scrutiny as a result of its actions and because the online lending industry is in the development stages. While an increasingly competitive environment had been making it more difficult for LendingClub in the last year, these recent concerns could shake investor confidence and threaten the lending base overall. The company announced Scott Sanborn as the permanent CEO and set expectations that second quarter originations would be one-third lower than the previous quarter. Despite these setbacks, we believe the company is positioned well to benefit from the shift from local banks and other lenders towards an online commoditized marketplace.
Despite positive absolute returns in the equity market during recent years, we believe the ever-changing market sentiment demonstrates that there are more than just fundamental factors affecting stock prices. A lack of confidence in the fundamental outlook suggests to us that many investors appear to be struggling with accurately predicting the pace of global economic recovery and are assessing external factors that threaten economic fundamentals (for example, central bank actions and fiscal policy debates across the globe). While some fundamentals in various geographies may be trending in a positive direction (from a very low base during the global financial crisis in 2008–2009), we don't believe we are entering into a typical post-recessionary global boom cycle. Rather, we believe the lingering effects of the credit crisis could lead to moderate growth, at best, for the intermediate term. In such a tenuous environment, we believe the quality of a company's business model, competitive position, and management may prove to be of utmost importance.
Regardless of the economic outcome, we remain consistent in our long-term investment philosophy: We want to own what we view as strong secular-growth companies with solid business models and competitive positions that we believe can grow market share and have the potential to deliver shareholder value in a variety of market environments.
The views expressed represent the Manager's assessment of the Fund and market environment as of the date indicated, and should not be considered a recommendation to buy, hold, or sell any security, and should not be relied on as research or investment advice.

Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal.
Investments in small and/or medium-sized companies typically exhibit greater risk and higher volatility than larger, more established companies.
Holding a relatively concentrated portfolio of a limited number of securities may increase risk because each investment has a greater effect on the Fund's overall performance than would be the case for a more diversified fund.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Morningstar proprietary ratings reflect historical risk-adjusted performance as of 08/31/2016. For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar RatingTM based on a Morningstar Risk-adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance.
The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Overall Morningstar Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics.
Institutional Class shares are only available to certain investors. See the prospectus for more information.
Morningstar fund data for all time periods shown are as of the above indicated.

Kids grow up fast, real fast. One moment they are sitting in the back of the car singing the ABCs, then next moment they are singing 'hot line bling'. If you think about it, childhood is just small portion of life, not even 10%…I'm not sure who decided that childhood should be so short, but whoever made the decision, they totally got things backwards.

text: Thank you very much for your answers, I'm gathering lots of information from your emails, but on the other hand I should probably say that this is kind of getting out of hand for me. When I first sent the message I've expected to hear lot about GSM 03.39, SMPP 3.0, 3.3, 3.4, SMPPP ...and instead of that, SS7 and all that stuff came into play. My first idea was to develop some kind of framework (pretty much like the SMS-JDK http://www.ncl.ie/smsjdk/smsjdk.html) but open and erlang-based (I thought that the result could be really neat, java is OK but has nothing to do against erlang :-) Then, from this framework on, I shall try to develop the service we have in mind (in erlang also). Guess I must be missing many aspects of the hole picture. I must confess that for the moment I don't have a clear mind about all of this. I don't even know the tools and equipment needed (besides OPT of course), in fact this is what I'm trying to guess at the very first stage (We wouldn't like to be wasting our time working on things that are already done). What about SMPP 3.0, CAP II (Computer Access Protocol Number 2) and GIP? Are they used for the same thing? --- dialog between SMSC (Short Message Service Centre) and ESME (External Short Message Entities) ---. Besides this dialog with the SMSC, some operations like checking the balance of prepaid customers, charging the service to the customer's telephone bill or possible service restrictions must be accomplished in order to implement a full operating version of almost any service, is all of this handled through the SS7 stack? Do you think that it'll be possible to emulate or implement these operations on a lab? I've seen something about OMAP (Operators, Maintenance and Administration Part of SS7) is there where I need to get into SS7? As you can see, by the moment I don't have much more than a great excitement about this project and I guess that time enough scheduled also (at least 20 moths, full-time). Besides of getting my job done, even if it implies a greater effort for myself, I will appreciate any guiding/suggestion to face my work to a wider/generic result in order to develop some "pieces" of software that could be used by others on further and/or greater projects (such us Valentin´s proposal). Please be patient with me, I'm just trying to guess how these pieces fit all together. Thanks again. Regards, Quique

A Burglar's Guide to the Cityby Geoff Manaugh
Encompassing nearly 2,000 years of heists and tunnel jobs, break-ins and escapes, A Burglar's Guide to the City offers an unexpected blueprint to the criminal possibilities in the world all around us. You'll never see the city the same way again. At the core of A Burglar's Guide to the City is an unexpected and thrilling insight: how any building transforms when seen through the eyes of someone hoping to break into it. Studying architecture the way a burglar would, Geoff Manaugh takes readers through walls, down elevator shafts, into panic rooms, up to the buried vaults of banks, and out across the rooftops of an unsuspecting city. With the help of FBI Special Agents, reformed bank robbers, private security consultants, the LAPD. Air Support Division, and architects past and present, the book dissects the built environment from both sides of the law. Whether picking padlocks or climbing the walls of high-rise apartments, finding gaps in a museum's surveillance routine or discussing home invasions in ancient Rome, A Burglar's Guide to the City has the tools, the tales, and the x-ray vision you need to see architecture as nothing more than an obstacle that can be outwitted and undercut. Full of real-life heists--both spectacular and absurd--A Burglar's Guide to the City ensures that readers will never enter a bank again without imagining how to loot the vault or walk down the street without planning the perfect getaway.From the Trade Paperback edition.
Night Visionby Geoff Manaugh Troy Paiva
A booming subculture is on the rise: dubbed Urban Exploration, it involves sneaking into abandoned or off-limits factories, aviation "boneyards," decommissioned bases, and other derelict features of the military/industrial landscape. Troy Paiva is a foremost photographer of the UrbEx (as it's known to its devotees) phenomenon, and his distinctive blend of atmospheric night photos and lighting effects are the visual hallmarks of a scene that has drawn the increasing attention of the media and the publicas seen in recent programs on both the Discovery Channel ("Urban Explorers") and MTV ("Fear"). Illuminated by histories of the sites documented, Night Vision reveals the remarkable discoveries of a new generation of explorers.
