Autodesk announces "pay-as-you-go" rental plan for software suitesMonday, September 9th, 2013
This morning Autodesk announced a pay-as-you-go model for all the company's desktop software including the latest Design and Creation Suites, Autodesk 3ds Max, Autodesk Maya and Autodesk Maya LT. A "hangout" was held this morning on Google this morning where Andrew Anagnost, SVP, Industry Strategy & Marketing for Autodesk and other industry specialists, discussed this new offering.
Businesses are increasingly adopting this type of model for consuming services and products as opposed to owning software. Options generally include renting, sharing or purchasing subscriptions such as this "pay-as-you-go" model. This way designers, engineers and architects no longer will have to be concerned about purchasing the next version of the software. New comers will also be able to get up and running on the software with few up-front costs, and get projects started with this software.
Options include quarterly and monthly or annual rental plans for customers who want to stay current with product updates, use of Autodesk 360 cloud services and support. This is a similar option to what Autodesk Subscription customers already enjoy. The rental plan will be available beginning September 2013 and applies to Autodesk AutoCAD Design Suite, AutoCAD Inventor LT Suite, AutoCAD Revit LT Suite, Building Design Suite, Entertainment Creation Suite, Factory Design Suite, Infrastructure Design Suite, Plant Design Suite, Product Design Suite, Autodesk Maya, Autodesk 3ds Max and Maya LT.

Acquisition announcements from AutodeskMonday, August 26th, 2013
This past week Autodesk announced three acquisitions: two for BIM for infrastructure – the technology assets from Bestech Systems and Savoy Computing, Ltd. These investments extend Autodesk's infrastructure portfolio for road and bridge design and greater adoption of BIM. For third are technology assets from Get The Point, LLC.
- Sam — A suite of software modules from UK-based Bestech Systems for loading, analysis and design of small and medium bridge spans. The software will help Autodesk customers save time and increase accuracy and data consistency during the analysis phase of bridge design..
- AutoTrack – A suite of software from Savoy Computing, LTD for road, light rail, airport, parking and intersection analysis and design. The technology will further support infrastructure planning by architects, designers and engineers.
Secondly, Autodesk acquired technology assets from Colorado-based Get The Point, LLC and introduced Autodesk Point Layout, new software for layout at construction sites. The acquisition will extend Autodesk's construction solutions portfolio and BIM in the field.
Autodesk Point Layout automatically creates points from BIM and CAD models within Autodesk Revit, Autodesk AutoCAD and Autodesk Navisworks software. The point data drives robotic total station hardware, such as Topcon's line of positioning systems and related hand-held devices or tablets, to give contractors and sub-contractors laser-guided pinpoint accuracy for the placement and verification of building elements.
By removing error-prone manual layout techniques, Autodesk Point Layout improves field accuracy and productivity, as building designs are more available and accurate at the construction site. The software used in combination with Autodesk BIM 360 portfolio for field management and coordination will add to the productivity at construction sites and on entire projects.

Bentley's Field Supervisor app for the iPad announcedThursday, August 8th, 2013
In July, Bentley Systems announced their Field Supervisor, an app for the iPad that allows users to connect to multiple data sources. It extends the reach of information that is managed securely in ProjectWise and eB, and in other user repositories to field workers with online and offline access. Now construction professionals and field workers can make on-site decisions more easily with current project information.
"We've been doing a lot around information mobility, and how can we help infrastructure teams share and collaborate and interact with information across the phases of a project, between systems and people," Huw Roberts, vice president, Core Marketing at Bentley said. "Fundamentally we want people to be able to interact with project information on a mobile and have that be part of their workflow, rather than a separate app or technology. Our app strategy is built around extending and building upon those secure project environments."
Autodesk InfraWorks 360 Pro debutsWednesday, August 7th, 2013
Paul McRoberts, vice president of Autodesk's Infrastructure Business, talked this week about the company's announcement today of Autodesk InfraWorks 360 Pro, that offers the latest 3D modeling, visualization and cloud-based collaboration technologies to address the estimated $30 trillion gap worldwide between desperately needed infrastructure and the funding required to deliver it.
To expand access to the critical BIM solutions that design professionals need to address this challenge, the new solution is available via a quarterly plan, making it ideal for firms to test-drive Autodesk 360 Pro, or use it for short-term project needs.
Those users who have been aware of the Autodesk InfraWorks environment will note that the product goes to the next level with cloud capability and the ability to integrate lots of disparate Big Data. "We are still struggling with how to manage this Big Data world," said Paul McRoberts. "Things have been focused around the single user, GIS analyst, GIS technician, drafter, a very expert oriented environment. As were building out the InfraWorks 360 environment, we ask how does that environment get us to change?"
Startup Owlized teams with Autodesk for urban design and infrastructure visualizationTuesday, July 30th, 2013
"San Francisco-based startup Owlized has teamed with Autodesk to help "bring the symphony alive" for public stakeholders and non-technical policymakers when considering infrastructure and urban design proposals. […]Owlized and Autodesk recently debuted a new device called the "OWL" for San Francisco's Better Market Street project [ ….]The OWL looks like a traditional coin-operated retro viewfinder that we've all seen and used at scenic lookouts. With all its potential flexibility, the OWL's potential for urban design and infrastructure visualization is vital for better city planning through civic engagement."

Bentley Map Mobile debuts for infrastructure professionalsThursday, July 25th, 2013
The first version of Bentley Map Mobile, a Bentley app that empowers infrastructure professionals to share Bentley Map geospatial information with field technicians via Android-based mobile devices, was released recently.
In a conversation with Richard Zambuni, global marketing director, geospatial and utilities at Bentley Systems, he said that the Bentley Map Mobile project was initiated through an engagement with a telecommunications company who requested they start development work on it. "Although it works with any class of infrastructure that is managed geospatially it was an engagement with telecommunications firm that initiated the project," said Zambuni. It is "very much a first release, and it will be available in the future on other operating systems. For upcoming releases, we are looking at including redlining, inserting special objects, editing object attributes, to support different workflows. Bentley is working on closed loop workflows in the cloud for bringing in data. Users can publish spatial data as an i-model and it can be consumed on the Android device. They can use very large datasets and the performance is excellent."
"A lot of our users will want to support specific workflows with this technology on mobile devices, so we have an SDK to help them develop what they need," said Zambuni. "This will be able to be tailored to individual organizations. We will provide redlining, and object editing out of the box in future releases, but the more specific forms-based interaction with the data will probably have to be created by the users themselves using consultants. Some will have programming resources in house."
Spatial information on smart devices is something Bentley has been moving toward for some time as the consumerization of physical formats has coincided with the ability to view and interact with very large datasets. Plans for further releases on different operating systems are in the works; next on the list is the iOS platform.
Bentley Mobile Map is available publicly but users can only publish to Bentley Map Mobile from Bentley software. There is a free publishing utility to create i-models which works with Bentley Map Enterprise, Bentley Utilities Designer, and Bentley's communications products, including Bentley Coax, Bentley Copper, Bentley Fiber, and Bentley Inside Plant. These are Bentley's geospatial products that are application-specific.
"Although you can't publish from Esri products such as ArcGIS or ArcMap directly," explains Zambuni. "You can bring in shapefiles to Bentley Map and publish out through Bentley Map to Bentley Map Mobile, but you have to bring the data into a DGN environment to publish out."
When this technology is deployed , it will mostly be at a departmental level to support departmental workflows, which may require that users develop their own "flavor" of the app on top of the SDK. The SDK enables organizations to make the app as light and simple to use as possible – to be used in the field by many people inside and outside of the organization who are not GIS professionals, such as construction and engineering teams, installation and maintenance teams, and inspectors.
From the press release:
Bentley Map Mobile provides the following functionality:
- fast access to large geospatial data sets;
- easy-to-use, standard tablet-based gestures such as pinch to zoom, swipe to drag, point to select features, etc.;
- simple query mechanism to look up features quickly;
- GPS integration for fast location in the field;
- Google Maps integration for directions to located features (with network connection);
- disconnected, view-only operation for access anywhere, without a network connection;
- raster and vector display.
The advantages of Bentley Map Mobile include:
- improving the quality of decisions made by field personnel by providing quick access to accurate, up-to-date asset information;
- increasing worker safety by having access to current information as well as information on adjacent utilities that might have an impact on the work they are completing;
- increasing the return on investment in geospatial data by making this valuable data available to an entirely new group of users.
Bentley Map Mobile is available to all Bentley Passport holders at no additional charge and can be accessed at www.bentley.com/BentleyMapMobile.

I went up to Dallas for the night because my sister was having her first baby. I got to see her for a few minutes before she had to do the feeding, farm style... so I left to go to Turtle Creek to take few shots at sunset after a jog.
This is where I used to go run all the time when I went to SMU, just down the road.

Keefe, incorrectly named in the pleadings as Richard Keefe, Sr. (hereinafter referred to as defendant), appeals from a judgment of the circuit court finding him secondarily liable on a note executed by co-defendant Home Can Manufacturing Corporation (Home Can) and awarding plaintiff, Aluminum Company of America, also known as ALCOA, $16,248.61 plus $8,361.77 in interest, or a total of $24,610.38. *fn1 Defendant's primary argument on appeal is that he was discharged from liability as a guarantor of the note by the subsequent making of six installment notes without his consent also payable to plaintiff for the same debt, which were executed by Home Can and guaranteed by defendant's son Richard I. Keefe. *fn2
Count II of plaintiff's amended complaint, the count upon which the circuit court found defendant liable, alleged the following: (1) on April 21, 1977, and again on May 10, 1977, Home Can ordered certain aluminum stock from plaintiff which was delivered and accepted on December 19, 1977, and June 6, 1978, at a total cost of $18,248.61; (2) on October 9, 1978, defendant as officer and agent of Home Can executed a note for $18,248.61 payable by Home Can to plaintiff on December 11, 1978, with interest at 12% per annum; (3) defendant "acting in his individual capacity, personally endorsed the reverse [side] of the October 9, 1978, Note * * * and thereby promised to pay ALCOA the amount of the Note according to its terms and effect in the event that Home Can did not pay the amount of the Note"; (4) Home Can paid only $2,000 of the principal due; and (5) despite presentment and demand for payment defendant had not paid the balance of $16,248.61 plus interest. A copy of the front and reverse side of the note as attached to the complaint are reproduced below.
Also appended to the complaint were copies of the six installment notes. Each of those notes is dated December 12, 1978; they total $18,248.61, bear interest at an annual rate of 12% and mature on the first of every month from April through September 1979. The parties do not dispute that the installment notes were executed on behalf of Home Can by Richard I. Keefe acting as its officer and agent. Nor is it disputed that the reverse side of each of the installment notes has the words "PAYMENT GUARANTEED" typed on it, ostensibly followed by Richard I. Keefe's signature. The installment notes differ from the October 9, 1978, note in that they include the additional term: "that upon the default in the payment of any one of the [installment] notes the remaining notes shall immediately become due and payable without notice."
In his amended answer to plaintiff's amended complaint defendant: (1) denied that he executed or endorsed any of the notes payable to plaintiff and asserted that his son Richard I. Keefe had actually signed the note dated October 9, 1978, as well as the six installment notes; (2) alleged that the notes were to be paid out of a fire insurance settlement which had not yet been received; and (3) claimed that plaintiff had agreed to accept the installment notes and the first payment of $2,000 in lieu of and as payment for the October 9, 1978, note, as a result of which there was a novation of that note.
At trial, plaintiff's case consisted entirely of evidence that defendant either personally signed the October 9, 1978, note or represented to plaintiff's agents that he had done so, and evidence that plaintiff had not made any agreement to condition payment of that note on Home Can's receipt of fire insurance proceeds.
The only evidence concerning the issue of novation was introduced by the defense during direct examination of defendant. Defendant testified that the six installment notes dated December 12, 1978, were actually delivered by plaintiff's attorney to Richard I. Keefe, and executed by him, in April 1979. Defense counsel inquired of defendant on two occasions as to the purpose of the six installment notes. Defendant answered as follows:
"A the purpose was to rearrange and take care of the first note and replace it with a series of six notes.
A They replaced the original note, they paid off the original note of $18,000 and made a series of notes out of the original note."
Defendant was then asked whether he had agreed in writing to the extension of the October 9, 1978, note, to which he replied that he had not. Plaintiff did not cross-examine defendant on his testimony concerning the purpose of the installment notes and did not introduce any rebuttal evidence on that issue.
The circuit court found that: defendant had signed and personally guaranteed the October 9, 1978, note; the parties had not agreed to condition payment of that note on Home Can's receipt of the fire insurance settlement; and the conditions supporting a novation had not been satisfied. The court thereupon entered judgment against defendant and in favor of plaintiff for the balance due on Home Can's account plus accrued interest. In his post-trial motion defendant attempted to raise as a new defense theory that he was an accommodation party under the note of October 9, 1978, and that he was discharged from liability on the note by an agreement between plaintiff and Home Can to extend the time for payment of the note without his consent and without plaintiff reserving its right to proceed against defendant. The trial court denied the post-trial motion, and defendant has appealed.
On appeal defendant has presented three theories in support of his contention that he was discharged from liability on the note of October 9, 1978, by the subsequent making of the six installment notes at plaintiff's behest for the same debt but with a different guarantor. *fn3 First, defendant claims he was discharged from liability on the note under section 3-802(1) of the Uniform Commercial Code. (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 26, par. 3-802(1) (UCC).) Second, under common law, defendant argues that the installment notes were given in "payment" of the original note, which extinguished that note and discharged its obligors, rather than in "renewal" of the original note which would have merely postponed the time for payment. Third, defendant asserts that he was discharged from liability under section 3-606(1)(a) of the UCC (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 26, par. 3-606(1)(a)) because plaintiff, without his consent, agreed to suspend the right to enforce the note against him.
• 1 The portion of section 3-606(1)(a) of the UCC relied upon by defendant provides, in part:
"(1) The holder discharges any party to the instrument to the extent that without such party's consent the holder
(a) without express reservation of rights * * * agrees to suspend the right to enforce against such person the instrument or collateral or otherwise discharges such person * * *."
This section, however, pertains to an extension of time to pay the obligation granted to the principal debtor. (Ill. Ann. Stat., ch. 26, par. 3-606(1)(a), Illinois Code Comment, at 410 (Smith-Hurd 1963).) As stated above, the question whether plaintiff ever agreed to give Home Can an extension of time to pay the October 9, 1978, note was not an issue at the trial and is not properly before this court on appeal.
• 2 Defendant's reliance on section 3-802(1) of the UCC (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 26, par. 3-802(1)) is also misplaced. Defendant argues in his brief that section 3-802(1) discharges an obligor when the obligee takes a subsequent negotiable instrument drawn or made to his order on which there is no recourse or express reservation against the original obligor. This contention is premised upon the language in section 3-802(1)(a) which by its terms applies only "if a bank is drawer, maker or acceptor of an instrument," which is not the situation in this lawsuit. Section 3-802(1)(b) states that "in any other case [where an instrument has been taken for an underlying obligation] the obligation is suspended pro tanto until the instrument is due." Section 3-802(1)(b) is a codification of the Illinois common law holding that a note given by a debtor for a precedent debt will not be held to extinguish the debt in the absence of an agreement to that effect, but will be considered as conditional payment or collateral security or as an acknowledgment or memorandum of the amount ascertained to be due. (Keller v. North American Life Insurance Co. (1921), 301 Ill. 198, 204, 133 N.E.2d 726; See Ill. Ann. Stat., ch. 26, par. 3-802(1)(b), Illinois Code Comment, at 419 (Smith-Hurd 1963).) This provision does not support the proposition for which it is cited by defendant in his brief, but rather merely clarifies that by signing the October 9, 1978, note, Home Can did not extinguish its liability on the underlying obligation based on its account stated with plaintiff.
• 3 Illinois case law concerning the effect on the guarantor when the primary debtor gives a new note for an indebtedness evidenced by a prior note has been recently summarized in Corn Belt Bank v. Lincoln Savings & Loan Association (1983), 119 Ill. App.3d 238, 247-48, 456 N.E.2d 150. There the appellate court stated:
"A general rule has developed that if a new note is taken for the same indebtedness evidenced by a prior note, a guarantor on the prior note is discharged if the new note constitutes a valid agreement supported by consideration extending the time for payment on the old note. (38 C.J.S. Guaranty sec. 75a (1943); see Schuman v. Arsht (1928), 249 Ill. App. 562; cf. White v. Walker (1863), 31 Ill. 422.) However, when the new note is not based on valid consideration flowing to the payee, the extension of time purportedly provided for in the new note does not operate as a valid extension of the time for payment of the debt and does not operate to discharge the guarantor. Mitchell v. Peterson (1981), 97 Ill. App.3d 363, 422 N.E.2d 1026; 38 C.J.S. Guaranty sec. 75b (1943); Lee v. Pioneer State Bank (1981), 97 Ill. App.3d 97, 423 N.E.2d 218.
Application of the foregoing rule of discharge depends not only upon whether the new notes are supported by consideration flowing to the payee of the old notes, but also upon the related question of whether the new notes were intended to discharge the old notes or merely to operate as security for those notes. In Weger v. Robinson Nash Motor Co. (1930), 340 Ill. 81, 172 N.E. 7, the supreme court held that the question of whether new notes are intended as a satisfaction of a previous note discharging the guarantor of that note is basically a question of fact."
The elements of novation are a previous valid obligation, a subsequent agreement by all of the parties to the new contract, the extinguishment of the old contract and the validity of the new contract. (Greenbaum & Browne, Ltd. v. Braun (1980), 88 Ill. App.3d 210, 213, 410 N.E.2d 303.) The intention of the parties to extinguish a debt is not presumed. The party asserting discharge or novation has the burden of proving novation by a preponderance of the evidence. Greenbaum & Browne, Ltd. v. Braun (1980), 88 Ill. App.3d 210, 213; Faith v. Martoccio (1974), 21 Ill. App.3d 999, 1004, 316 N.E.2d 164.
In this case, the parties do not dispute the validity of the note of October 9, 1978, or of the six installment notes subsequently executed for the same indebtedness. Consideration for the installment notes was imputed, and no additional consideration for those notes was required. (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1983, ch. 26, par. 3-408.) The question is whether the parties agreed to extinguish the original note by executing the installment notes. The only evidence on that issue was defendant's uncontroverted testimony that the installment notes were intended to pay off and replace the original note.
• 4 In general it is the duty of the trier of fact to assess the credibility of the witnesses and the weight to be given to their testimony. Nonetheless, unimpeached testimony may not be arbitrarily or capriciously rejected. Where the testimony of a witness is neither contradicted, either by positive testimony or by circumstances, nor inherently improbable, and the witness had not been impeached, that testimony may not be disregarded by the trier of fact. People ex rel. Brown v. Baker (1981), 88 Ill.2d 81, 85, 430 N.E.2d 1126.
• 5 At the close of the trial, the circuit court ruled that the evidence was insufficient to prove a novation of the note; however, defendant's uncontradicted testimony was sufficient to establish an agreement by the parties to replace or discharge the original note. Accordingly, the circuit court's ruling on that affirmative defense and its finding in favor of plaintiff were improper and must be reversed.
For the reasons set forth above the judgment of the circuit court is reversed.

FRANCIS, PLAINTIFF - APPELLEEv.MARYLAND CASUALTY CO., DEFENDANT - APPELLANT
Smith, Circuit Judge. Lumbard, Chief Judge.
SMITH, Circuit Judge:
Plaintiff, insured under a garage liability policy, brought action against the insurer for costs and expenses to date of defense of personal injury action and a declaration of duty of the insurer to provide defense against further prosecution of the claim. From judgment for the plaintiff in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut, Ernest W. Gibson, Judge, after the jury on special interrogatories found that the notice provisions of the policy had been complied with and that the policy covered the accident, defendant appeals. We find no error and affirm the judgment.
Plaintiff, owner of a garage and motor vehicle junk yard, in the Marion section of Southington, Connecticut, had for some years carried liability insurance with the defendant. A one-year policy became effective May 18, 1952. In 1952 he purchased a truck with tank body and an old road grader for $250 and brought them to his yard. He later put his dealer's plates on the grader and drove it some two miles up Southington (sometimes called Waterbury) Mountain to beach property he owned on the shore of Shell Hitchcock's Lake in Wolcott, for the dual purpose of grading the property and demonstrating the grader to prospective buyers.
While the grader was in use grading the beach property a gear broke, rendering the blade raising mechanism inoperable on one side. Francis dropped the blade to the ground, imbedding it as far as possible, drained the gas tank and left the grader in place at the beach property while he canvassed used car yards in the area for parts for its repair. In August 1952, while Francis was absent in Boston, a 13-year-old boy, one John Worden, was injured when a group of his playmates managed to start the grader. Worden was taken to the hospital. On Francis' return from Boston the next day he talked with Worden's father, a tenant at Francis' beach property, and was told that the injury was the boy's own fault and that there would be no claim made against Francis. No notice was given by Francis to the insurer until April 1953, when, upon being served with papers in a suit claiming $125,000 damages, Francis promptly delivered them to the insurer's agent. The agent advised the insurer's claim manager, who ordered attorneys to enter an appearance promptly on behalf of Francis. Appearance was entered May 6, but after investigation the insurer on May 12, 1953 wrote Francis a disclaimer of liability and refused to defend, instructing counsel to withdraw from the case.*fn1 Counsel moved to withdraw on May 16, notifying Francis to obtain other counsel, which he did. The case was tried twice, resulting in verdicts against Francis in amounts of $37,000 and $28,000, both of which were set aside on appeal for trial errors. The claim is still pending in the courts of Connecticut. Counsel fees and expenses were incurred by Francis in the amount of $6200 and $3400.
The court submitted to the jury the following two interrogatories, which the jury answered in the affirmative:
A. Do you find that the policy issued by the defendant Maryland Casualty Company did in fact cover the accident in which John Worden was injured and which accident resulted in the suit brought in the State Court against Mr. Francis?
B. If you find "Yes," did the plaintiff, Mr. Francis, give the defendant, Maryland Casualty Company, written notice of the accident within a practical time?
Judgment was entered requiring defendant to assume the defense of the pending personal injury negligence case, and to pay the $6200 and $3400 attorneys' fees and expenses already incurred in the defense of the action, and defendant appealed.
Defendant-appellant contends that the court should have ruled as a matter of law that the notice provisions of the policy*fn2 had not been complied with, and that the grader was not covered by the policy at the time of the injury because not then being used as a part of the garage business operation. The latter ground is clearly not well taken, for there was testimony that the use of the grader was partly for demonstration purposes looking toward its sale, and the policy in any case covered use for nonbusiness purposes if used principally in the defined operations. There was at least a jury question, which was resolved against defendant. No objection was made to the charge on coverage.
The principal question on the appeal is whether the notice was given as soon as "practicable." (The court in the instructions and interrogatories used the word "practical" rather than "practicable" but gave an instruction correcting this when requested.)
Connecticut law controls here, and the Connecticut cases indicate that its courts would find that a jury question exists. Connecticut excuses delay in notice if a reasonably prudent person would not believe either that an injury had been suffered or that as a result thereof liability may have been incurred. Carroll Co. v. New Amsterdam Cas. Co., 121 Conn. 486, 185 A. 579, 580 (1936); Silver v. Indemnity Insurance Co. of No. America, 137 Conn. 525, 79 A. 2d 355 (1951); Baker v. Metropolitan Casualty Ins. Co., 118 Conn. 147, 171 A. 7 (1934). Taking Francis' testimony in the best light in which the jury could have placed it, as we must, he had the assurance of the boy's father made "right in front of the neighbors" that the accident was solely the boy's fault and that no claim would be made. "It was the kid's fault . . . he would never bring suit." Moreover, Francis saw the boy "jumping off the roofs of people's houses" in the ensuing eight months, before suit was brought. That was enough to go to the jury, which is the judge of reasonableness. The fact of apparent injury is only one of the factors to be considered. Silver, supra. It was for the jury to determine whether under all the circumstances Francis was reasonable in believing that no claim would be made. The charge to the jury sufficiently defined the question to be decided.
Appellant relies heavily on Preferred Accident Ins. Co. of N.Y. v. Castellano, 148 F.2d 761 (2 Cir. 1945), and Boyer v. American Casualty Co., 332 F.2d 708 (2 Cir. 1964). These cases are clearly distinguishable. In Castellano, there was a three month, nine day delay from the accident to receipt of a lawyer's letter by the insured and on the day of the accident the injured person went to a hospital. (In fact, Castellano followed the ambulance to the hospital.) This court, apparently applying Connecticut law, paid no attention to this delay but focussed instead on the delay of six weeks from receipt of an attorney's letter by the insured until notice to the insurer. The case is therefore distinguishable because appellee here did notify the insurer promptly after a claim was made. Similarly, in Boyer, the insured failed to turn over a lawyer's letter received right after the accident.
We conclude that the issues of coverage and notice as soon as practicable were properly for the jury and correctly submitted to it. Judgment affirmed.
LUMBARD, Chief Judge:
The insurance policy provided that "when an accident occurs written notice shall be given . . . as soon as practicable." The test under the Connecticut cases is whether "in reason the assured should have recognized the probability that a claim would be made." Silver v. Indemnity Ins. Co., 137 Conn. 525, 531, 79 A.2d 355 (1951). If there was a probability that a claim would be made then prompt notice should have been given. Here Francis learned the day after the accident that the Worden boy had been seriously injured and that he had been taken to the hospital.
The father's denial of an intention to sue made immediately after the injury should not excuse the obligation to give notice. It is common experience that statements of intention made immediately after an injury are frequently forgotten and disregarded when later events indicate the possible advantages of a different course of action. Only if the requirement of the policy is enforced in situations such as this can the company protect itself against the difficulties and uncertainties of investigation and finding the facts long after the event when memories and impressions are often hopelessly colored by claims later asserted and the hope of benefits therefrom. The Silver case, supra, is wholly unlike this as there was considerable doubt concerning the extent of the injury and the injured woman was heard to say that she felt all right. It does not seem too much to require as a matter of law that the assured must notify the company after an accident in which someone is so seriously injured as to require hospitalization.
The issue of notice should not have gone to the jury. The court should have directed a verdict for the defendant.

"I saw this pattern and thought it would be great to go in my gift tins for my homemade spa sets for Christmas. I started the pattern but kept having trouble with the puff stitch. When I try to pull through the loop the hook gets stuck and pull a strand or two out making it look un-neat. Is there a way to prevent this? Could it be the yarn I am using?"
"I love this pattern for making dishcloths! It is so simple and it's so easy to remember. It makes a great,durable dishcloth. Does anyone tried this pattern with that new yarn that is made for making dishcloths? I think it might be a rayon blend. I'm going to try it next time I need dishcloths."
"This is a great beginner project, it was easy to follow and gave great instruction. I was able to work up several of these for co-workers who thought it was so cute. I am going to make several more for my home for company to use when they come over and have coffee."
"These spiral beaded trees are so pretty! For extra sparkle, I am going to place a battery tea light candle in the center of the spiral. Several of these trees would look great placed within a strand of twinkle or small rice lights on a mantle or table center piece!"
"That's a great idea!"

Immersive/VR/AR/360º Storytelling Seattle C enter June 2-5, 2016 www.siffx2016.net
"You have to see this as an inquiry. Four days of asking ourselves if VR matters. Is this just good for entertainment? Or is it a potential doomsday device? People seem to have a pretty visceral reaction when they experience it. And by it, we mean X. The unknown. We are trying to solve for X, the radical unknown. And it will be a terrific opportunity for the community to experience aspects of this X." - City Arts // Sandy Cioffi, SIFFX festival director - Visitors take in Art/Tech History timeline at the Nonny de la Peña Retrospective SIFFX 2016 was the inaugural year of a festival within the Seattle International Film Festival showcasing the most current and creative thinking in virtual reality/VR, augmented reality/AR and 360° immersion. It was held June 2-5 at Seattle C enter. 1
What we set out to do: • • • • • • • Launch a 4 day festival, showcasing the most current and creative thinking in virtual reality ( VR) , augmented reality ( AR) and 360° immersion; Frame VR / AR / 360º technology through an arts, culture and social justice lens; C atalyze a conversation between Seattle's arts, cultural, civic and tech communities about this transformational moment in cinema and technology; Bring national and international immersive artists, creative technologists and thought leaders to Seattle to explore contemporary forms of new media, exhibit new work, experiment with new tools, make connections and dig into the question: How can we shape the purpose, use, and language of an entirely new medium at this pivotal moment? Create an intensive, hands-on learning experience for Seattle's leading artists; Offer a range of immersive experiences, from communal viewing in the Pacific Science Center Laser Dome to walk-around and sit-down headsets in the galleries; Light a fire in Seattle about the artistic, cultural and business potential of immersive media! 2
And here's what we did: // 360º SC RE E NINGS @ THE DOME // THRE E VR/AR GALLE RY E XHIBITIONS, INC LUDING THE FIRST-E VE R RE TROSPE C TIVE OF NONNY DE LA PE NA'S IMME RSIVE JOURNALISM // X-AC ADE MY: A THE ORE TIC AL, HISTORIC AL & TE C HNIC AL C URRIC ULUM OF IMME RSIVE ME DIA // FLY STORY ARTIST INC UBATION PROGRAM // ME DIA C OVE RAGE // SPONSORS 3
Opening Night on the red carpet with SIFFX swag! fabulous wonder.land @ X-Gallery 4
360º SC RE E NINGS @ THE DOME How we want to be immersed: 22% floating in ocean 30% flying through air 9% without a body 14% dune-buggying the surface of Mars 12% in the midst of a dance 13% marching in a parade —Results from survey conducted on Opening Night by Vis à Vis Society performance troupe Communal immersive viewing – "look up!" - at Pacific Science Center Laser Dome. • Thanks to the generous, risk-taking, collaborative support of Omnispace, Optima, and Pacific Science Center, we transformed the Pacific Science Center Laser Dome into a 180º screening venue. Which included installing a 12 projector projectionmapped system with positional sound. With this phenomenal support our dream of lying back and looking up to watch the stars came true! 5
• We were thrilled to feature the work of leading immersive content makers Vrse, RYO T, Wevr and The New York Times. Joe Chen speaks about art-tech collaboration during Opening Night at The Dome. • We opened the festival at The Dome to a full house of over 300 attendees. The performance troupe Vis à Vis Society orchestrated the evening, taking surveys on the red carpet and providing instruction for the collective cardboard viewing experiment during the show. Joe C hen, E xecutive Technical Producer at Vrse ( Within) , spoke from a creative technologist's perspective about the current moment in immersive media and the process of collaborating with artists. The after-party featured signature drinks, a 360º photo booth, video projection by C oldbrew C ollective, and music by KE XP DJ Darek Mazzone. 6
THRE E VR/AR GALLE RY E XHIBITIONS "My whole family had a wonderful time, and I was able to share the cardboard viewer later with my mom, who is mobility impaired, and watching her face light up with delight as she was able to move through spaces she would never be able to on her own was profound and wonderful. What an incredible opening to a weekend that inspired many." - Rachel Kessler, Vis à Vis Society Visitors experience VR Program at X-Hub. • O ver 1,000 people experienced the 3 galleries: X-G allery, X-Hub and Nonny de la Peña Pavilion. Ticketing the galleries in 1.5 hour time slots allowed 40 visitors per block to move through the exhibit without having to stand in line or feel rushed. Understanding that most people were experiencing VR / AR / 360º video for the first time, and that providing quality experiences is critical to the adoption of the technology, we were pleased to hear from both visitors and artists, many of whom have exhibited at the major X festivals, that we achieved just that - an unprecedented quality VR exhibition experience. 7
• SIFFX curated the first-ever retrospective of Nonny de la Peña's pioneering immersive journalism, showcasing the evolution of her groundbreaking work from Hunger in Los Angeles to Project Syria and Kiya. 8
Samsung Ambassadors guide visitors through VR experiences at X-Gallery. • We were fortunate to have the in-kind support of the leading gear manufacturers. Samsung provided 30 Gear VRs and arranged for 9 ambassadors to staff the galleries; Valve loaned 12 HTC Vive systems for the Nonny de la Peña Retrospective and X-Hub galleries; and O culus sent a representative and system to demo Lost. 9
X-AC ADE MY: A THE ORE TIC AL, HISTORIC AL & TE C HNIC AL C URRIC ULUM OF IMME RSIVE ME DIA "After spending the weekend at SIFFX and learning everything I can about VR, part of me wants to drop everything and devote my complete time and attention to developing content for this new medium. It's coming, and this is the ground floor. But another part of me can't get my printer set up so we'll see how it goes." - Chris Allen, SIFFX participant Making Is Thinking: 360º Cinematography with Steven Schardt & Michael Franz of Panogs. 10
The Grandfather of VR, Tom Furness • We brought pioneering artists, creative technologists and thinkers to Seattle audiences, including: Joe C hen of Vrse (Within), the "Grandfather of VR" Tom Furness, the "Godmother of VR" Nonny de la Peña, and Toby C offey, Head of Digital Development at the UK National Theatre. Chet Feliszek in conversation with the "Godmother of VR" Nonny de la Peña. 11
• • We programmed 2 days of panels and workshops, ranging in theme from What's Old Is New (the history of art/technology intersections), to Cyber Feminism, The Business of X, 360º Cinematography, Story Ecosystems, and World Building. Panelists included: C het Feliszek (Valve), Kiki Wolfkill (Microsoft), E ren Aksu (Emblematic Group), Daryle C onnors (filmmaker, game developer, author), Robin O ppenheimer (media scholar), Bruce O berg (Sucker Punch), Ted Youngs (Panogs), E mily E ifler (eleVR), Tom Sanocki (Limitless, Pixar), Kim Voynar & Nathaniel Luke Pinzon (Wondertek Labs), Steven Schardt (vr.org), Michael Franz (Panogs), E va Hoerth (The Rat Lab, VREAL), Kel O 'Neill (The Ark), James Nestor & Sandy Smolan (The Click Effect), James Kaelan & Blessing Yen (The Visitor), and Milica Zec & Winslow Turner (Giant), and Josh Daniels (Pyramid Communications). Feminism 360º panel • The sessions were live-streamed by Front Row Live. (The total viewing time was 21hrs 10min, and the average viewing time was 16 min.) 12
FLY STORY ARTIST INC UBATION PROGRAM "I'm still processing all of the magic I experienced at #SIFFX2016 last weekend. I'm so honored to have been immersed in incredible conversations and brain sparks with so many talented people! It's been a long time since I've felt in my element and felt that paralyzing inner-critic shut the cuss up." - Dacia Saenz, FLY STORY artist Artist Emily Eifler demoes her DIY paint program for FLY STORY participants. • In collaboration with Washington Filmworks, SIFFX invited 17 Seattle artists, from a range of disciplines, to participate in the FLY STORY incubation program. • We convened a conversation with FLY STORY artists and arts, culture and civic leaders, including representatives from the O ffice of Arts & C ulture, Mayor's O ffice of Film and Music and Virtual World Society, about the future of immersive storytelling in Seattle. • Many of these artists are now incorporating 360º media and thinking into their work and have forged collaborations with fellow FLY STORY participants. 13
ME DIA C OVE RAGE 'Virtual reality' has been one of those vague sci-fi neologisms that's been hanging around the culture for the past 30-odd years without anyone really knowing what it means. But SIFFX, like Illuminous Analemma, makes a strong case that the period of VR existing only in theory is over. It isn't going to change the nature of storytelling/ filmmaking/consciousness itself. It is changing those things, even now. This future is happening right now, in front of our eyes. – "SIFFX Dares Seattle to Get Real About Virtual Reality Right Now," Charles Mudede, The Stranger "SIFF GETS REAL, Virtual Reality may be the breakout star of this year's film festival." (Lara Hale, June 2016, Seattle Magazine // Photo: Hayley Young) SIFFX was covered by all the major Seattle press outlets, including: City Arts, Empathy Device, The first-ever SIFFX arrives, Jonathan Zwickel; The Stranger, SIFFX Dares Seattle to Get Real About Virtual Reality Right Now, Charles Mudede; The Seattle Times, 'Craft your world around you': SIFFX explores the future of virtual reality, Kate Clark; Seattle Magazine; Seattle Weekly; Seattle Met; Geek Wire; KUOW; KCTS; and KOMO 14
SPONSORS SIFFX would not have been possible without the generous support of our sponsors: Sponsor branding was visible throughout the festival: on the SIFFX sponsor slide that appeared before SIFF screenings, at all SIFFX panels and workshops, and in the galleries. Sponsor logos also appeared in the printed program and were listed on the sponsor page of the website. Vulcan Technology's demo booth at X-Maker's Space. 15
NE XT STE PS // 2017 and Beyond Given the success of the festival for artists, presenters, participants and sponsors, we are exploring options for an X Festival in Seattle in 2017. We are bringing together a coalition of producing partners and hope to be making an announcement soon. Stay tuned! 360º photo booth at Opening Night party www.siffx2016.net 16

People of a certain age sometimes find themselves in need of dental care involving dental crowns instead of a filling, or dental bridges to replace missing teeth. Understandably, in light of the present economy, many patients think first of the expense. But the fact remains that postponed care costs more in the long run, both financially and physically.
In the case of broken teeth, extensive decay or an old filling, a crown is intended to hold the remaining tooth structure together. After a root canal, enamel becomes especially brittle - another candidate for a crown.
A badly damaged tooth, left untreated, causes changes in the mouth that disrupt how the teeth work, chewing patterns, and jaw function. Normal eating habits may be inhibited. Tenderness forces the bite away from one side of the mouth and exerts undue pressure elsewhere. Why not just extract this troublesome tooth?
A missing tooth eventually spells oral disaster, meaning permanent changes to your bite. Because the mouth is dynamic, teeth on either side of an empty space will shift. The teeth next to them move, too. With all this movement, periodontal disease could invade soft tissues. Jaw misalignment, and the pain that goes with it, is likely. So tooth restoration to bolster neighboring teeth and keep the "architecture" of the mouth in good shape is the best course of treatment.
After fillings, crown and bridge work is our first line of defense against oral deterioration. This kind of dentistry brings a lot of satisfaction to both patient and dentist. A transformation happens. With the mouth functioning again, people feel better about themselves.
So call your cosmetic dentist today to find out how you can restore your mouth to total dental health. You'll look and feel better.
Dental inlays and dental onlays are valuable for restoring teeth that are severely decayed or worn. Typically, they are applied to the chewing surfaces on the back teeth.
What Is the Difference Between a Dental Inlay and a Dental Onlay?
In restorative dentistry, an inlay is used more like a filling for restoring normal tooth structure. It is best if the surface is small and only involves the chewing surface and surfaces between the teeth.
An onlay is similar to an inlay but treats larger areas, covering the entire chewing surface of a tooth. Dental onlays are recommended for larger tooth restorations and when chewing surfaces require long-term protection.
What Are Dental Inlays and Dental Onlays Made of?
Since both are used in areas of heavy chewing and grinding, they must be made from durable materials. They can be made from porcelain or composite resin chosen to match the color of your teeth or they can be made of a mixture of metals called an alloy. Alloys can be a mixture of metals like gold and palladium or nickel and chromium.
What Are the Restorative Dentistry Procedures for Dental Inlays and Dental Onlays?
The tooth is first prepared by removing portions of decay or damage. The remaining tooth structure is shaped in preparation for the dental inlay or dental onlay. An impression of the tooth is made along with opposing teeth and the bite. From this, a plaster model is formed that is used for a custom fit matching the contours of the tooth.
Since both dental inlays and dental onlays are custom-made, a second appointment is needed for checking the fit and cementing the inlay or onlay permanently. At that appointment, any adjustments to the bite will be made. A final polishing adds the final touch to this restorative dentistry treatment.

Velg Training is Australia's leading provider of Vocational Education and Training (VET) professional development and consulting services.
The absolute highlight of the overall conference for me was the replacement motivational speaker Paul de Gelder. Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The most worthwhile professional development I have been to in a long time.
There was a lot of great, up to date information. I can say it was absolutely worth it!
"Great Resources!"
Well organised and presented with great resources and information.
It was a fantastic event which was extremely well organised and ran. well done. I attend a lot of other industry events and conferences and this was much better.
A tremendous opportunity for VET practitioners to listen to current thinking on a range of important VET matters and to connect with a raft of fellow participants across the 2 days. It was a great event!
The networking was very valuable and if you were a person new to VET this would be a great place to start your PD journey.
"Great Presentation"
The trainer provided good facilitation skills and content. He had a welcoming approach to the training sessions and handled some tough questions well.
Trainer, resources and information as of a high standard, I thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the workshop.
Well structured and easy to follow - opportunity to expand on existing knowledge.
"The Best"
The best explanation of RPL I have heard to date. Thank you.
"No Travel"
Being in far north Queensland being able to access a webinar was fantastic for me – no travel!!
The content…..it's invaluable!
Training via webinar was great! Very interactive and convenient living in a rural area it was easy.
This is a brilliant media for me as I have trouble getting away from the office, but can easily lock myself away for an hour.
"A BIG thank you!"
I was audited by ASQA, and the information I received at the workshop paid off... this may not have been the case without the workshop so THANKS!
Velg Training can be depended upon to have up to the minute currency with the content of their presentations.
"Thank you"
Thank you to Michelle & Team at Velg Training for keeping me fully informed with current and future information to perform my role at our RTO.
"Up to date"
Clear and very relevant sessions. I know exactly what is required of me now to get our organisation totally up to date.
"Wealth of Knowledge"
I have been a member of VELG for a few years now and have attended several PD workshops both in Brisbane and Sydney. I think you guys are so inspiring with the wealth of knowledge you are able to share.
As a new RTO we found the information and assistance provided during the internal audit to be invaluable.
Very refreshing to find a company with an exceptional attitude towards their clients that is geared round achieving the best possible outcome.
"Varied Opportunities"
The event gave varied opportunities to have many different exposures to many providers under the one roof as well as engaging in very relevant topics from the providers.
"Absolutely Fantastic"
The conference app was absolutely fantastic. It was my first Velg Training and I really enjoyed the app. Providing feedback on sessions was a breeze. I provided much richer data than I normally have time to do. The ability to create my own schedule was also a winner. Well done for that part of the conference experience.
I am always highly impressed with the wonderful customer service and support we enjoy from the Velg Team.
"Excellent Resource"
Just wanted to congratulate you on this initiative! Thanks again for providing this support to members…..this makes us want to keep being members!
Mitch Cleary was excellent. Confidence in her ability and knowledge of topic
"Great Networking"
Great networking Relevant to industry and all people present Informative and interactive
"Comprehensive Coverage"
