Factors to Consider in Web Design
Web design has many aspects of work and descriptions when it comes to web production and web maintenance because there are many fields of web design, and these are web graphic design, interface design, authoring, user experience design and search engine optimization and usually individuals work on each given field but some designers know everything about those given fields. Web design overlaps the field of web engineering and web development and usually web designers must always be on the loop or they must always be updated on the dates and new guidelines for web design. The history of web design is linked with the emergence of graphic design although web design is seen through the technological standpoint of people, web design have been part of the daily lives of people and it is very hard to imagine internet with web design because we are used to seeing animations and interactive web design now a day.
Web designers often use different tools in the production and maintenance of websites although the execution is different based on the functions that they need but the principles behind these tools are just the same. It is important for a web designer to determine the target market so that they could come up with a mobile-friendly web design that is appropriate for the users and the users could understand use the website easily so because of this, web designers implement different tools that would convey marketing and communication designs on the website.
It is also essential for the web designer to create an interactive design that will be friendly for the user because users have different level of understanding and proper labeling of the website would be a good idea for easy access of the website. The page layout in wordpress web design is another important thing to consider in web design because this would also add to the user-friendly factor of the web and it should be a responsive web design layout wherein it will automatically change to fit the appropriate screen of the user's device like for instance in tablet and smart phones.
Using limited style and sizes of fonts can also be a big help in creating a good web design so that there is consistency in the design of the web and to avoid confusions among users for the labels and wording on the website. In using animation or motion graphics on the website, the designer must take into consideration the target market because young audience are fond of colorful animations but for formal and adult audiences, they might have too much animation graphics as destructions while navigating the website.

Review: MyID Medical Information and Personal Information BraceletPosted on Nov 12, 2013 under Raves | Comments are off
I've spent the last few weeks wearing and evaluating the wearability of the MyID medical and personal information bracelet from Endevr.
(Apologies to the reader but I've blacked out bits of info here and there to keep some privacy from prying internet eyes.)
MyID is a similar product to the RoadID that I've reviewed here before. I'm a big fan of running and cycling with some sort of id, and I think that carrying government issued id (driver's license, etc.) is risky if you lose it. This is where these types of products really excel. With the MyID you can carry your total medical and biographical info, at least as much as 1st responders would need, in a small wrist band.
The MyID band is a soft silicon band with a watch-style clasp. You can see the MyID band (blue) beneath my yellow RoadID bracelet.
The band comes long, and you trim it to fit your wrist. The kit comes with a sizing guide that gives you a rough indication of how much to trim off each end of the band. Obviously you want to be cautious here, cut it long, and to back to trim if need-be.
The MyID is not pre-engraved with static information for the owner. Instead on the inside of the band is a serial number and pin.
With this information the owner can setup an info page with medical conditions, contacts, name, address, allergies, etc. 1st responders also use this information to access your information page. The web service is pretty solid: the interface is clean and quick, there are areas to enter all kinds of structured information about your stats, medical contacts, emergency contacts, any allergies, medications, medical conditions and then free-form areas for entering "other stuff" that you might wish that 1st responders were informed of if you were unable to speak for yourself. Unlike custom engraved IDs, the MyID allows you to update your info whenever it changes.
There is also an iPhone app to enter and maintain your profile information.
I have to admit that I was a little dubious about the merits of an ID and PIN-based ID system. My health and contact info all fit into an engraved tag and I'd always felt that having it immediately available to 1st responders was valuable. With this doubt in mind I talked to a few police officers, several ambulance drivers, and a few folks in ER departments. They agree that a decade or so ago having all the info on your wrist, immediately available, would have made a difference, but today the 1st responders are so well connected that looking up the info online or via a 800-number is just as good, and significantly better if the owner has significant medical conditions.
In Summary
The MyID offers a good option for an emergency ID that can speak for you in the event you cannot. The web service that collects and presents your information is good. The band is comfortable and durable. The only negative is that the web service and 800-number are available as an annual subscription. Unlike printed bands where your information is totally on your wrist, the MyID service depends on you maintaining the paid subscription service.

This testimonial includes a description of this patient's actual medical results. Those results may not be typical or expected for the particular disease type described in this testimonial. You should not expect to experience these results.
View CTCA treatment results for colorectal cancer
In September 2005, I went to see a doctor about a number of symptoms I had been experiencing, primarily rectal bleeding and fatigue. I also had been feeling pain in my hips and the small of my back. I underwent a colonoscopy, which revealed a two centimeter mass in my rectum. Tests then confirmed it was rectal cancer.
The tumor grew quickly and within a month's time had doubled in size. It began to grow closer to my prostate. I was advised to look into a cancer hospital and oncologists who were experienced in treating cases such as mine.
My wife Debbe recalled seeing a commercial for Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) during one of her favorite soap operas. She decided to give them a call for some information. I never thought I'd be thanking God for the soaps.
Debbe spoke with an Oncology Information Specialist, who provided information about CTCA. After they collected our information and I was approved by our insurance provider to treat at CTCA, we were able to schedule an appointment for a consult at the CTCA hospital in northern Illinois.
Debbe and I felt as though God closed one door and opened another. However, we were wary of traveling so far for treatment. We rarely traveled and a trip of more than 700 miles from our home in New Park, Pennsylvania was a huge step. Fortunately, CTCA stepped right up and took care of all the travel planning and made the process easy. I liked the fact we were met at the train station in Chicago and driven to the hospital. We didn't have to concern ourselves with finding a cab or renting a car. After all, we had enough on our minds at the time. I also appreciated that our driver was so kind and welcoming. He gave us insight on what to expect once we arrived at CTCA, which helped put us at ease.
There are no words to adequately describe the sense of love and hope we felt when we first entered CTCA at Midwestern Regional Medical Center. My first appointment was with the pain management team, which helped me get the pain relief I needed. I also met with Dr. Levin, my medical oncologist. My doctors developed an aggressive treatment plan which included radiation therapy, chemotherapy (Xeloda®) and rectal cancer surgery (a proctectomy). I received the radiation and chemotherapy first to shrink the tumor. Then, I underwent surgery to remove the tumor and cancerous tissue.
My doctors offered confidence and assurance along with peace and hope. Each doctor, nurse and care provider was uplifting and compassionate. I felt as though God's love came across in volumes, shining brightly from each person. Everyone went the extra mile for me and my family. Debbe's concerns were always met with love and compassion and acted on.
During my treatment at CTCA, I also benefitted from many integrative oncology services, including nutrition therapy, naturopathic medicine, mind-body medicine and spiritual support.
I stayed in the local Country Inns & Suites as I went through chemotherapy and radiation treatment. The accommodations were very convenient, clean and affordable. I then returned home for a month and a half before I came back to CTCA for the operation.
My journey with cancer was filled with mountaintops and valleys, but CTCA was there to help smooth out some of those valleys and make my journey more bearable. I miss the friends I made at CTCA very much, but I always look forward to returning for my yearly checkup and visit.
I have learned that each day is not a given, but a gift from above. The grass is greener, the sky is bluer and every day is a gift.
Every morning before I leave for work, I tell Debbe I love her. She was right beside me throughout my journey.
When I'm not working at my job as a maintenance chief, I'm very involved in cancer support groups like the CTCA Cancer Fighters Care Net. I regularly speak with others who are fighting colorectal cancer and who are considering coming to CTCA for treatment.
Debbe and I have also been blessed to begin a one-on-one, faith-based cancer ministry called On Eagles Wings Ministries. My advice to the cancer patients I speak with is clear: Do not walk this path alone. There are so many before you who can lift you up. People care and are concerned about you. And, there is always hope. No matter how deep and dark the valleys, how thick the fog of depression or the mist of despair, there is always hope.

Physicochemical Properties and Analytical Methods of Determination of Biguanides

* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
As described by Shapiro et al. (1959), biguanides are diacid bases. They have a particularly strong primary dissociation constant and a considerably weaker second dissociation constant. The first salts of biguanides which were prepared were the sulfate (obtained by treatment of the biguanide-copper complex), the hydrochloride and the nitrate because of its insolubility. Other known salts are the toluenesulfonate, the tartrate and the pamoate. In order to obtain a better pharmacological activity some other salts have been prepared by treating biguanides with carboxylic acids. These salts were the adamantate, Clofibrate, orotate, nicotinate, isoxazole-carboxylate, pyrazole-carboxylate, trimethoxybenzoate and 4-chlorophenoxyacetate.

Anybody planning on doing any out of state hunting this year?
I will be sending in for a Colorado Archery Elk hunt pretty soon. We should draw tags this year I think. It is our third year sending in. It is my first time ever going so I am pretty excited. I have almost all the gear I need. Just ordered my rain gear from ****$ (also ordered a dozen hardcore duck decoys for 34, figured I couldn't go wrong at that price). I only need to buy some more arrows (easton FMJs) and some new broadheads which I haven't decided what to go with yet. I am thinking slick tricks.

I apologise in advance if I am in the wrong place. If I am, I would very much appreciate a pointer to the right place, also, please excuse the long story - look to the end of the text for highlights!
We are your run of the mill family. 2 factory set Iphones and an Ipad amongst other devices in our home.
Recently my 13 year old daughter sold some concert tickets as she wanted to change her phone from a blackberry to an I phone 3. (thank god). Due to our ignorance around jailbroken phones we suggested she try and see if anyone she knew was selling one rather than buy one from Ebay or similar.
A friend was, and naively we accepted all was fine after looking at the phone and trying my daughters sim card in it, paid our money and off we went.
However, once we tried to sync it with our itunes we discovered it would not activate. We then attempted to restore it via itunes to no avail. Further investigation told us the phone was jailbroken and it wouldnt be that easy. Also, it turns out the 'nice people' we bought it from wouldnt give us money back.
So, currently, there is no Olly Murs concert (no bad thing!) and no Iphone for my daughter who has spent what little cash she had on this iphone.
We have some technical ability and managed to download tiny umbrella and found out the following things:
The baseband on this phone is: 06.15.00
The Serial Number shows its new Bootroom being 942.
Our technical ability did not go as far as sorting it, there was just too much information out there to understand it fully.
We would like to attempt to at least make this phone useable for my daughter but worry about what damage we could do in our hamfisted attempts, namely, any mucking about with our Itunes which currently serves the ipad and two i phone 4's.
Please could someone advise as to the best course of action (I suspect paying someone to do it is the best thing, though as this is our daughters 2nd Iphone and 5th phone (adter smashing the previous ones we are unwilling to start paying out money) .
We would be massively grateful for any tips or pointers !

A range of general test shots are shown over the next two pages. In some cases, the full size image has been reduced for bandwidth purposes, and a crop taken from the original full resolution image has been placed below it to show the overall image quality. Some other pictures may be clicked to view the original full-size image.
Here's the usual detail test shot of the West Window of Exeter Cathedral, for you to compare with other cameras. See below for a full res crop, or click to see the whole picture.
The level of fine detail is excellent, with good contrast and sharpness.
Since the S100FS is sold as an alternative to an SLR, here's the usual SLR test shot of Sidmouth seafront.
Compare this with the results from a full-sized DSLR, such as the Sony A200 or Canon EOS 400D.
The lens produces some barrel distortion at wide angle, which is to be expected.
A more worrying problem is the significant chromatic aberration towards the edges of the frame.
I purchased the S100fs in early May, 2008. To say I am impressed is an understatement. If you would like to see - straight out of the camera images, have a look at : http://www.pixplanet.biz/Po...
Very nice pictures Dave, they certainly look very impressive to me and are much better than Cliffs for evaluation. I really don't know why Cliff uses those model cars at all. I agree with Cliff though that this camera seems overpriced, I couldn't bring myself to pay over 𧷸 for it when I could buy a DSLR. I'll keep waiting for something radical to happen before giving up on my Fuji S7000 and Canon A560. Cheers, Ian
I usually check all sites before purchasing in order not to be sorry after purchasing!By reading almost more than ten reviews I came to conclusion that this camera is realy a sophesticated great job of technology especially by implementing as the Fujifilm's Super CCD 's
In order to be more acquaited with the photos taken with this camera please have look at the galery of http://www.pbase.com/camera....
I was really satisfied, what about you?
Shapour Vaezi Tehran Iran
I've just purchased an S100fs from Fuji's own website.It's Refurbished and on sale at 𧷷.99,less 10%,via myfuji,of which I an a member(membership free).I'll keep you posted as to how the pics turn out.
Agree with Cliff - a brilliant camera but a touch expensive. BUT, Ian Dalgliesh is spot on - I too have just bought a "refurbished" one from Fuji UK" for under 𧷚 and at this price it makes much more sense. Simply cannot tell it from new, it's absolutely perfect and unmarked, and suspect it might be Fuji moving on stock while trying to avoid upsetting its retailers. This was at 10% off (use code P24OCTOBER) which expires 2nd November so you'll have to be quick!
I actually bought a Sony a350 and was so dissapointed with the images I was getting, I took it back to the (indipendant) camera shop. Even with the Zeiss lense, it wasn't much better. The assistant suggested the s100fs and I have found it to be excellent. The only niggle is the maximum 'bulb' exposure of 30 seconds which is a bit limiting for night / movement photographs.
can you explain how you got the 10% discount from Fuji guys? I have joined myfuji and can find no sort of discount scheme... cheers
Update:2/4/09:Look up homepage of www.fujifilm.co.uk.,there see photos on front page.The golden river with two swans is mine,taken with S100fs.
I currently have a lumix fz 28 and am already looking for an upgrade. I do mountain climbing and love landscape and wildlife photography. The thing is that I don't find myself ready (or wealthy enough) to upgrade to a dslr with a such a great zoom. The reason for the upgrade is that even though fz 28 is a great camera and has received great scores on the net, it somehow does not really satisfy me, especially when it comes to night photography.
I can get a Fujifilm FinePix S100FS for about 480$ here in Iran And could also get the new lumix fz38 for the same price (panasonic cameras cost a lot over here, don't know why). Which one do you guys think (especially those who have had this camera) would serve me better? would you call switching from fz 28 to s100 even an upgrade in image quality? note that I can get rid of my fz 28 for a good price (around 350$).
I would appreciate your help.
Still considered a great bridge camera? looking to buy a used one for £150 as this is my budget and new bridges for this price dont seem to come close.

Indian long distance running ace Ram Singh Yadav will be using the TCS World 10K Bangalore on Sunday as a time trial, part of his buildup to the marathon in the London Olympics and he hopes to also finish among the winners from a strong and talented Indian men's elite athlete field. The Indian men and women were in a meet & greet session with the media at the event's media center, moderated by former marathon champion Sunita Godara.
Besides individual glory, the athletes will also be fighting for honour in the Nation's Challenge, which will see participation from 27 states. The teams will comprise two male and one female athlete and the winner in the Nation's Challenge will stand to gain Rs 4.50 lakh, with the runner-up teams winning Rs 3.25 lakh, followed by 2.15 lakh and 1.10 lakh. The individual male and female winners will stand to gain Rs 1 lakh each, with prize money up to the first five places.
Yadav, who achieved the qualifying mark at the Mumbai Marathon, another of the international events promoted by Procam International Pvt Ltd, said, "The TCS World 10K will be a perfect platform to improve my performance and will be useful for time trials before the Olympics".
"I have always enjoyed running in Bangalore in the company of some of the world's best athletes and I look forward to another exciting race," Yadav added.
Yadav will have for competition the 22-year-old defending champion Suresh Kumar, who is looking to not only retain his crown but also improve upon his last year's time of 30.17 minutes.
The other leading Indian men in the fray are B C Tilak, Rati Ram Saini, Kheta Ram, Santosh Kumar, V L Dangi and Soji Mathew, to name a few.
In the absence of defending champion Kavita Raut and fancied names Sudha Singh and Preeja Sreedharan, the Indian women's challenge will be headed by another big name, Lalita Babbar. Babbar, whose favourite event is the half marathon, but possesses a good turn of speed is also confident of doing well on Sunday.
The women's category also has some promising new talent in Archana Pal, Monica Athre, Priyanka Patel and Kiran Tiwari, among others.
Priyanka Patel and Archana Pal have been practicing with the international steeplechase champion Sudha Singh and gathered some valuable tips from her. Both the athletes have been supported by their families and are working hard to achieve their goals in the field of athletics. Another performer to look forward to is Kiran tiwari who has been a consistent performance for the various marathons. "I am happy to be here and have been training very hard for the last two months," said Kiran.

Lucas: What's Next
COLLEGE PARK--As Carolina's team bus wound its way from BWI airport to College Park on Tuesday night, ace bus driver Lonnie Campbell cued up the in-cabin DirecTV. On the screens throughout the bus, Ohio State and Indiana were going to halftime.
The first ESPN topic during the break, with Carolina less than 24 hours away from tipping off at the Comcast Center against Maryland: the Tar Heels' hugely important upcoming game...against Duke. Could P.J. Hairston defend Ryan Kelly? What about Marcus Paige? What about the Duke guards? All of those topics were being discussed, with the subjects of the discussion sittiing there watching. It was a little like having a parent-teacher conference with the subject in the room.
So, yes, Carolina's players were well aware of what was still to come this week. Which makes it all the more impressive that they proceeded to go out and play like the Terrapins were the only visible team on the schedule, claiming a 79-68 road win that assures the Tar Heels of avoiding Thursday in the ACC Tournament.
By all rights, the story should start and end with the play of Reggie Bullock and Hairston, who combined for 41 of the visitors' 79.
The pair of wings scored 20 of Carolina's first 22 points in the second half and combined to shoot 13-for-21 from the field. Bullock, who notched his second straight double-double, managed to score 19 points on just eight shots. Each player snatched three steals. Hairston's perimeter shot was spotty (2-for-7 from the three-point line), so he maturely was more aggressive taking the ball to the rim and attempted a game-high nine free throws.
They were also among a host of Tar Heels who went headlong for loose balls. Hairston's dive had the highest degree of difficulty, as he turned a near-cartwheel over the scorer's table chasing one potential rebound.
"That type of hustle and playing hard is usually what sparks us," Hairston said. "Usually, when we get a play like that, pretty soon we get a turnover and then we're rolling."
And they were rolling, of course, because of the phenomenal play of Hairston and Bullock. But quietly, there were some other Tar Heels who made virtually invisible contributions that were similarly pivotal.
Take Desmond Hubert and Brice Johnson. The box score says they played just a combined 16 minutes. But in a game when the Terps picked up 12 of their first 21 points off offensive rebounds, the Tar Heel reserve big men were essential--along with James Michael McAdoo--in cutting off Maryland's second opportunities. Mark Turgeon's team had 12 second-chance points in the first 12:30...but then scored just two second-chance points over the next 14 minutes.
"Boxing out was a big emphasis in practice," Hubert said. "We wanted to make sure we boxed out our guys, and that allowed us to get our offense going because of our defense and getting the rebound and getting out and running."
That running was often keyed by Paige, who finished with a career-high eight turnovers and just three assists. It was completely unlike his recent performances, and it was, according to Paige, "probably the worst game of basketball I've ever played."
He was particularly shaky in a 20-second stretch late in the second half when Maryland applied some full-court pressure and immediately went on a 7-0 run thanks to two turnovers by the freshman. That led to a timeout from Roy Williams, who said absolutely nothing to his point guard. What would he say at that moment? "Marcus, try not to turn the ball over."
Paige knew that already. So during the timeout, Williams settled his team, then sent them back onto the court with the Comcast Center crowd slowly working its way into a frenzy. For most of the evening, the supposed electric crowd (they'd been inside the building over two hours before game time to rehearse some of their cheers) had been much like the alleged winter storm-slow to materialize. But now, facing just a six-point deficit and with six minutes to go, suddenly there was energy.
The Tar Heels got the ball into the frontcourt-success!-and then used some clock. Perhaps they used too much clock. The possession got late, and Paige had the ball on the left wing. Hairston popped free near the top of the key just briefly, and the point guard saw him, but instead of making the pass, looked off the Tar Heels' hottest scorer and shot the ball himself.
It was a gutsy shot under the best of circumstances. It was an enormously courageous shot given Paige's erratic last minute of play. But the ball swished cleanly through, and the game was never really in doubt again.
"I had to know the time and score in that situation," Paige said. "If I'd passed the ball to P.J. there, it's probably going to put him in a bad spot because he'd have to make a quick decision and take a bad shot."
Lastly, there is Strickland, who has quietly compiled 31 assists and three turnovers over his last six games and put up six assists and zero turnovers on a night when the Tar Heels needed him to be steady because of Paige's struggles. He leads the ACC in assist/turnover in conference games by a wide margin-nearly a 2:1 gap over his next-closest competitor.
The senior will play his last game in the Smith Center on Saturday night. He had family in attendance Wednesday night at Maryland, and he knows his time is getting short. He's getting into the "lasts" part of his Tar Heel career, when it starts getting a little more real: last trip to Maryland, last home game, last ACC Tournament.
And he knows exactly what is coming next. After the win, the Tar Heels raced to their locker room and celebrated, then heard from their head coach. "Guys, let's enjoy this one," Williams told them. "I don't even know who we play next."
In that moment, considering we are talking about a coach who sometimes has to be reminded of the next destination when Carolina advances in the NCAA Tournament, and probably has only a 50-50 chance of guessing the location of next weekend's ACC Tournament, it was believable. He really had been completely focused on Maryland, and now he wanted to relish it for just a few minutes.
The comment hung there for less than a second.
"Coach," Strickland said, "we play Duke next."

Cricket Australia have cautioned an Australian cricketer over cocaine and alcohol use, reports The Australian.
The cricket governing body were alerted to an incident involving a prominent cricketer's use of cocaine and alcohol last year.
Although the leading Australian cricketer admitted to partaking in the illicit substance, the player did not test positive and has been unofficially warned over the incident by Cricket Australia.
Because it was the player's first offence, his name will be withheld. Cricket Australia were unwilling to give any further details.
"We are not in a position to comment - our principle is confidentiality," a Cricket Australia spokesperson told The Australian.
"The first response to a positive test, which we haven't had, would be in theory to work with the player in a confidential, professional and appropriate and medically focused manner."
It's reported that the cricketer does not have a drug problem, he has since received counseling, and has ceased any similar activity to date.
If the player is involved in another drug-related incident, he stands to face further sanctions from Cricket Australia.

Mumbai: The super star and icon of Bollywood has created yet another record due to his title track of his upcoming movie called Bbuddah Hoga Tera Baap in 'Acapella' style – a first ever in India. If you are not aware of this concept, the Acapella music represent an artist or maybe a group of singers that perform without any instrument.
From what we have been able to find out, the music directors Shekhar and Vishal had an ambitious plan, which is making something unique with super star Amithab Bachchan. Apparently they have succeeded as this Acapella number has never been done before in the film industry of tinsel town. The directors really hoped to create something especially and unseen for the Bbuddah. When the two presented their idea to the actor, Big B managed to surprise them in a nice way as he instantly said yes to this concept.
Shekhar Ravjiani said reporters in an interview that "We wanted to try something new with this song. We did the basic setup and then Mr. Bachchan replaced every track with his voice. He recreated the sounds of approximately 10 to 12 instruments, from drum to bass to the snare to the chorus. In a nut shell, he did everything required to make a song!"
As you may know, Big B is rather a multi talented actor so it is no surprise that he accepted this challenge. In fact he has even shown a great interest in it as well as a big excitement. According to a source, the icon super star of tinsel town really gave it his all for the success of this project. We have to admit, that Big B really manages to surprise us every time, as he constantly raises the bar higher with every project which he has.

Today is June 21st which means that not only is it the official first day of summer but it's the Summer Solstice too.
This means that it is the day with the longest hours of daylight in the Northern hemisphere and the shortest in the Southern.
Solstices occur twice a year, when the tilt of the earth is most oriented toward or away from the Sun, causing the Sun to reach its northernmost and southernmost extremes.
Apparently the name is derived from the Latin sol and sistere, because at the solstices, the Sun stands still in declination; that is, its apparent movement north or south comes to a standstill.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
It is cheap. Not enough sun beds and sun beds at the beach cost money. Is not a 5 star hotel.
near to the beach we asked on bed more but the bed is too small
Amazing location, kind of middle so you have easy and quick access to everywhere around. Very good beach and service on the beach. Nice views from the rooms. Comfortable place, good value for money. Receptionists do not speak English (except a couple of them) so its difficult to get any information from them if they speak they probably have no idea about anything... (most of the cleaners or bellboys speak English and know more about the city or interesting places to go to so don't be afraid to ask them).
The location is amazing. Really easy to get around and find things to do. The staff is rude. They kept asking if I was staying there. I had my bracelet on the whole time and wore short sleeves. Asking them for information or suggestions was a bother to them. The staff acted like providing service was doing me a favor.
Excellent location, great pools Front Desk customer service one of the worst ever service received. Terrible attitude towards customers and extremely slow! Shower in room terrible - no power and sometimes minimal hot water. Availability of deck chairs around pool non existent after 7am! And some of the cabannas by the adult pool had towels left over night and during the day and no- one appeared to be lying on them - there should be a time limitation to reserve deck chairs and cabannas!
I liked the size of the room. All the rooms at this facility all have an ocean view so don't fret about getting stuck on the wrong side of the building. The corridor is also open to the outside so there's no strong funky mold smell. There was a kitchenette complete with fridge, microwave, toaster so you can make your own snacks at the property. My shower handle wouldn't stay at a my desired temp setting. I called to have it fixed but either no one showed up or they couldn't fix it. I had to either hold the handle in my desired temp seting or shower in semi-cold water. It didn't really bother me though...it's warm in Acapulco
We enjoyed the location and the facilities. I think we were overcharged -more than reservation had totaled. Still have not received final total on my bank card in US dollars to be sure what we paid. Hopefully that amount will be converted from mxn and billed to my bank card to know for sure. Next time I will prepay prior to travel.
I stayed for three days. Beautiful view of the beach. I slept in great comfort for my stay. Its the first time I didnt cheap out for a hotel and I did not regret it. The food was okay and a bit expensive in my opinion. Tho to me almost all the food in Acapulco is like that. I really did not like that I have to sneak in water because the hotel wants to force you to buy their more expensive water. No mini fridge sucks for a 5 star hotel. Maybe it was because we had a few devices running, but the wifi was slow, my phone's roaming data was faster. Also I did not like that upon arrival, I had waited an hour and a half for my room to be ready, but thats about it.
The view. The beach club was great. The water that came from the cold water fawcet was hot! The room I got was on the back of the mountain, so it was blocked from the wind, so it was quite hot, and had lots of mosquitoes. The forgot to bring breakfast twice, and I had to call and ask them to bring it. The breakfast was mediocre at best. It is really not suited for small children, There was no way to isolate the pool area from the room, the balcony enclosing is pretty low and our baby tried to climb it, also the stairs that came down to the pool wereunsafe for small children.
I like a lot my staying at Las Brisas Acapulco. It is not our firsttimethere and it is a wonderful hotel, with a great location, marvelous attention. a unique experience I like it all
Excellent service, staff great, location and views world class, private pool with view of Acapulco Bay superb, Beach club excellent, old buildings but "good bones" to quote Lonely Planet. Unique place, would recommend to anyone - and worth splashing out on a "junior suite" room - not really a suite, but larger room, best views etc. No
the view and the privete pool breakfast wos very poor the send 3 cakes and some frut it is not a meal there were not cofee or tea maker as promised
Perfect place to relax during a long weekend The breakfast bring at your room is very cheap,inconsistant not at all in relation with The standing of The hôtel .
The privacy of my room They left the blankets in the entrance for my villa, the hotel transportation chofers where not good enough
the service was just outrageous, al the employes were more than willing to make your stay a fantastic one
The whole stay was unforgetable No
Exclusive, distinctive resort in a beautiful position with fantastic views, with a very efficient and friendly staff. The hotel's La Concha private club by the sea is the 'ace' in the Las Brisas pack - very impressive. There is a high level of traffic noise and at weekends and also a lot of noise from the nearby discos / nightclubs on the 'Acapulco Bay side' of the property.
Splendid view from room 518 & restaurant Bellavista but ... Need a competent coatch to improve the service witch didn't meet the 5* Leading Hotel of the World. Big disappointement. We never had such a poor New Years Eve party.
Great service. Far from beach.
We enjoyed the atmosphere and location, the pool, the beach and the ability to get to the beach from the hotel. The lobby area is very open and clean. The ability to get computer access in a foreign country within a few minutes. This was our first trip to Acapulco by way of a cruise and we are already planning a return trip and bring some of the family. We were only there a day but enjoyed the stay.
Well since we arrive to the hotel the staff was pretty kind and serviceable, then we had some problems with the room and they give us a better room for the mess. Finally when we were about to leave we miss our documents and they help us to find a solution in the airport. We defiantly gonna come back to this hotel
evrything was great, the Hotel and all the Facilities, i will go back again for sure.
Me and my girlfriend stayed at this hotel for 9 days. Its located at the best beach area in Acapulco. We will definitely stay at this hotel again if we are going back. A special thanks to the nice waiter Cuauhtemoc and for the good service from Socrates in the reseption. A water slide from the beach pool out in the sea :)
good location and nice beach. Excellent breakfast. THe room was not ready the night we arrived. THey had not confirmed the reservation from Booking.com. The AC does not work properly. It leaves the room humid, stuffy and with a mildew smell. THere is no Internet in the rooms, only in a small area in the lobby. No telephone service unless you open a voucher with your credit card. Noisy people on the aisles late at night, we had to call security.
the rooms were very dirty the airconditioner did not work and it was realy hot! people was not nice at all,
The property is beautiful. They allow parties until 3-4am regardless of the fact that guests can not sleep. Their response to this is doing nothing. Also, rooms don't have coffee makers. There is nothing close so you depend on what the hotel offers. Expensive for what you get.
Quiet, galmour, everybody called me by my name, relax. I want to get back
The service was good, the people were very gentle and the pool was nice with a very good view
The staff, very helpful!!! Nothing, everything was great!
Its location on the beach and in the middle of the bay. The mattress was too hard.
large airy and comfortable room. great restaurant, a la carte. Buffet was much less interesting.

Does anyone know of any place, local, that sell this besides the dealership? I found it at ECS, but after shipping, it's only 5 bucks less than dealership price, not including taxes. Just trying to be frugal cause I'm spending all my money @ Volkwerks in phx for my engine and tranny mounts.
I'm assuming this is the bad part, because he was telling me that my stage 2 flash could have revealed an underlying problem, such as the censor going bad. She start bucking on 3-6 gear pulls. No limping yet, thank god!!

Bravo Trial Day 9: "Chris Was Someone I Could Relate To"
Published August 14th, 2014
Loading Video...
Gainesville -- Pedro Bravo made a surprising testimony this morning on the ninth day of proceedings in his murder trial.
He took the stand and explaining his decision to move to Gainesville. Bravo is accused of killing UF student Christian Aguilar over an obsession with a girl.
Pedro Andres Bravo agreed to take the stand today. It was a big surprise for family and friends in the courtroom. During his testimony, he seemed very calm and we could even see occasional smiles from him.
Before Bravo took the stand, the defense argued for acquittal judgment on murder and kidnapping charges saying evidence is circumstantial.
However, the judge denied that motion. With that said, Bravo took the stand.
"Chris was one of the people I could talk to about this because he had also gone through the same thing, he's been a cutter from what I remember and he was someone I knew could relate to this in some way," said Bravo.
Bravo also said that for four years he's had prominent suicidal thoughts. He said it was never due to just one thing happening in his life and that stuff just kept adding on.
I will be tweeting live from the courthouse all week long, follow me on Twitter @BecharaReports.

Weight Loss- headlite actuator removal
If you have a serious street/strip car, you might be willing to trade a little inconvience for a little more speed.
Here's something I made several years ago to help get the ShopMule down to 2325lbs, while keeping it street legal...a couple of simple headlite support struts. The purpose of these struts is to hold the headlites in the upright position for night time driving, after the actuator motors and linkage have been removed. Easily stashed in the glovebox, they install in less than a minute when needed, no tools required. We made these out of 1/4 x 1" aluminum...
Here's a link to a page with more about the rest of the car...http://grannys.tripod.com/20102.html

Virtual Pop Star Gets Her Own Cafe [Pics]
Eat curries and throw back cocktails inspired by a singing, digital avatar who tops Japanese pop charts more often than living stars.
Tokyo City View in Rappongi, Tokyo has created a pop-up cafe called Miku Café in honor of Hatsune Miku, the singing, digital avatar of the vocal synthesizing application Vocaloid. Celebrating the character and the fan-created songs and videos that have made her famous, the café is a rare living testament to the star who has never even been alive.
Miku was created in 2006 by software company Crypton Future Media to personify the Vocaloid, a production tool that pieces together as many as twenty different voice tracks to create a single singing voice with a high production, studio sound.
Since her creation, the virtual idol has risen to heights of popularity that outshine most stars of the living variety. Her songs consistently top Japanese charts, her tours sell out crowds in Tokyo, Los Angeles, Taipei, Hong Kong and Singapore and her collaborations are as far reaching Domino's Pizza and Marc Jacobs. Her crowd- and voice actor-sourced voice is featured in over 100,000 songs, many of which can be previewed on the YouTube Channel of Miku's record label, KarenT.
The star's first foray into the culinary world, Miku's café features salads, soups, parfaits, and omeletes, as well as a rice and curry dish shaped in the form of Miku's head. The beverage menu is a collection of teas, sodas and cocktails named after Miku's fan-created songs.
The Miku Café doubles as an interactive media gallery, featuring an exhibition of famous Miku illustrations, a life-sized model of the star, a video and audio archive of Miku media and a message wall where customers can leave notes to the star and to the Hatsune Miku fan community.

Re: Plotting a set of complex points
I tried to reply to you privately but you have an invalid email address.
David Park
djmp at earthlink.net
From: tchouk [mailto:tchoukboum at hotmail.com]
To: mathgroup at smc.vnet.net
Suppose that I have a function f, defined on a set of complex numbers. For
example, f(z)=1/z^2.
Suppose that I also have a set (called A) of complex points satisfying some
known conditions such as A1 = {z : Abs[z] < 1} or A2 = {z : Re[z]=2} or A3 =
{z : z^27 + 3 z^15 - iz = Re[z]-2 Im[z^16]}...
I managed to plot the complex region A1 with 'ComplexInequalityPlot' but I
don't know how to plot a more general complex plane region (like the very
simple A2 or A3). I would like to give to mathematica a set of complex
points and having it plotted.
Then, I would like to view (ie plot) the image of A by f.
Could you help me ?
Thank you very much in advance !
ps. I'm using Mathematica 5.2.

A high blood sugar reading first thing in the morning can throw off your whole day — and signal a chronic problem. Despite their best efforts to control their blood sugar levels, some people simply wake up with elevated blood sugar. Starting your day this way is not just alarming — if it becomes a pattern, high A.M. readings can make it difficult to achieve your long-term diabetes management goals.
Whether you have type 1 diabetes or type 2, a morning blood sugar high can usually be traced to one of three causes. With a little detective work and the help of your diabetes care team, you can isolate the cause and take steps to correct it.
The Dawn Phenomenon
"The dawn phenomenon occurs during the night while you are asleep and the body releases stress hormones," explained certified diabetes educator Hector Verastigui, RN, clinical research coordinator at the Texas Diabetes Institute in San Antonio. This phenomenon usually occurs between 3 a.m. and 8 a.m. and involves growth hormone, cortisol, and adrenaline, which trigger the production and release of glucose from your liver. The end result of this chemical cascade is an increase in blood sugar.
"These hormones are designed to get us up and moving in the morning," said endocrinologist Renee Amori, MD, an assistant professor in the division of endocrinology at the Drexel University College of Medicine in Philadelphia. While everybody experiences these natural changes in hormone levels, in people with diabetes the body may not adjust appropriately. This can lead to higher-than-normal blood sugar at the start of the day.
The Somogyi Effect
High morning readings can also be caused by the Somogyi effect, a rebound response that occurs when the body overcompensates for a low blood sugar reaction in the middle of the night. "If you take blood-sugar-lowering medication [such as insulin] in the evening that may cause you to have a hypoglycemic reaction while you are asleep, your body will release these stress hormones that will cause you to have a high blood sugar in the morning," explained Verastigui. If this is contributing to your high morning blood sugar, he said, you may experience symptoms related to hypoglycemia, including headache, excessive sweating while asleep and difficulty waking. "If your physician is increasing your evening diabetes medication to lower your morning blood sugar and your blood sugar keeps going up, you may be experiencing Somogyi," Verastigui said.
Waning Insulin
The third common cause of high morning blood sugar levels is waning amounts of insulin, which means your insulin levels are going down and no longer keeping your blood sugar in check. As a result, you wake up to an elevated reading.
Finding the Cause of Your Morning Blood Sugar High
Though the three most likely causes of high morning blood sugar can all be treated, first you have to know which one is the source of your condition. If you're not sure, you might have to take the somewhat inconvenient step of waking up to check your blood sugar levels at 3 a.m. Here's why:
- Consistent blood sugar from bedtime until about 3 a.m. and then a rise suggests the dawn phenomenon.
- Low blood sugar at 3 a.m. suggests the Somogyi effect.
- Blood sugar that increases from bedtime to 3 a.m. and then is even higher when you wake is probably due to waning insulin.
Using a continuous glucose monitor enables you to get this information without having to wake up for it.
Treating High Morning Blood Sugar
A blood sugar high in the morning "can be tough to treat," acknowledged Dr. Amori, but with the help of your medical team, you can try different approaches. Talk with your doctor about these strategies:
- Adjust your pump. If you're testing high regularly and you use an insulin pump, you might be able to program it to help manage your morning highs.
- Check blood sugar before bed. Granted, many people have morning high blood sugar after an acceptable blood sugar at bedtime. Even so, "don't go to bed with high blood sugar," cautioned Amori.
- Take basal insulin. Taking basal insulin at bedtime could help, but be sure to clear any changes in dosing with your physician before you try it.
- Adjust medications. If in fact your high morning blood sugar is a rebound response to a low blood sugar level while you're asleep, you might need to change the dose of any medication you take in the evening that could cause low blood sugars. For others, an evening dose of metformin could help control morning high blood sugar. Talk with your doctor about whether your medication schedule should be adjusted to treat A.M. highs.
- Have a healthy pre-bed snack. For those experiencing the Somogyi effect, a healthy mixed snack (protein and carbohydrate) could help prevent your blood sugar roller coaster at night. Amori advises working with a registered dietitian if you're not sure how to fit a pre-bed snack into your daily diet.
- Increase physical activity. Being physically active during the day can help you manage blood sugar more effectively in general. If you are insulin-dependent or have a concern about low blood sugar, find out how to exercise safely before increasing your physical activity.
High morning blood sugar levels are a concern, especially if they happen regularly and seem to make it hard to meet your blood sugar goals. However, taking steps to address these morning highs can improve your overall diabetes management and stave off diabetes-related complications.


text: This is my first post and I am still a little green, please be gentle. Please reply directly to me as i am not sure if my subscription went through or not.... The system is RH 6.1(2.2.5) w/XFCom_Rage128 1.3 and an Xpert99 video card 128MB PIII 500 Up until this morning, my system was working fine. I'd login and do startx from the line and E would come up just hunky dorey. This morning I got into work and logged in, I issued startx and I got this error message: _XSERVTransSocketINETCreateListener: ...SocketCreateListener() failed _XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListener: server already running Fatal server error: Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't already running ... Since I got this I have rebooted and still have the same problem. I have check ps and found no X procs. I checked netstat and tcp port 6000 is listening and nmap shows an open port on tcp 6000 X11. I have tried disabling my firewall and starting x; no luck. I have turned off portsentry and tried starting x; no luck. Neither of the port configurations for this utils have changed in the last month. I guessed that neither of these things would solve the problem as X had been working fine since install just fine. I do not have a lock file in /tmp or in /var/lock or in /var/run. I am stumped. XFS starts and stop without issue as well. Let me deny(hopefully ;)) any fault of my own by relating this: The last time I used E successfully was two days ago. At which time i was modifying my portsentry, netsaint, and firewall init scripts(they come up at start time without issue). When doing this I restarted multiple times to ensure that the system would come up without a problem. And each of those times i was able to startx successfully. Then the system was shutdown while we had a power shutdown in our building and then it was restarted. Two days later when i tried to login again for the first time...i got these errors. Anyone ever seen anything like this before? One question that i have is whether or not there is a log for X. I had an incident last week where all of my logs were deleted and I have been suffering through getting them all reporting properly again. I would hope that, if it were the abcense of a log file, the errors would reflect that. But I cannot make heads or tails of this; nor can anyone else I have asked. ____________________________ Mike Neuharth ADCS Technology Specialist http://www.umn.edu/adcs E-Mail : mjn tc umn edu Page Mail : 6123065932 messaging sprintpcs com http://nifty.dsl.visi.com/ ____________________________

Bacteria, unlike people, get more orderly when they're in large crowds. In this computer simulation, a few E. coli bacteria start out oriented perpendicular to the walls of a container (blue rods). As they multiply, the growing mass arranges into tidy columns parallel to the container walls (red rods). The study sheds light on how cells orient themselves in tight quarters and is especially relevant to understanding biofilms, the high-density bacterial communities associated with lung and ear infections, tooth decay, clogged medical implants, and other health issues.

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
A busy Friday in the Bruins' front office continues to take shape, as reports indicate GM Peter Chiarelli has made yet another trade, this time with the Atlanta Thrashers.
In the deal, the Bruins send forward Blake Wheeler and defenseman Mark Stuart south to Atlanta in exchange for center Rich Peverley and defenseman Boris Valabik. This deal acts as the cap-cutting move necessary in order to complete the much-anticipated trade with Toronto to acquire Tomas Kaberle.
Wheeler can become a restricted free agent at season's end; Stuart can become an unrestricted free agent. Meanwhile, Rich Peverley's cap hit is just $1.325 million, and he is signed through next season. Peverley is a 28-year-old forward with 14 goals and 20 assists for Atlanta this season. Valabik is a former first round draft pick of the Thrashers, back in 2004. The Slovakian blueliner has spent this season in Chicago, playing for the team's AHL affiliate. He celebrated his 25th birthday earlier this week.
Who is actually available to fill out the roster for Friday's game in Ottawa remains to be seen. Reports do confirm that Chris Kelly will make his Bruins debut, facing his former team. Beyond that, we may see a very short bench for the Bruins.

Ok, so I've decided once this is done, I'm finding a new vet!
How long do stitches have to stay in after neuter? Duke was supposed to have them removed on Friday, which would be 10 days after surgery. The vet now tells me he will be away on Thursday and Friday and that his stitches can be removed tomorrow (Tuesday) one week after his surgery. The wound looks good, but I don't want them removed sooner than they should be.

NBDB Seminar Report (Nov. 15, 2005)
Arrived too early and with hardly a wink for the National Book Development Board seminar (around 9am, and it started 10) so I was really light-headed throughout the day -- which was in a way, just fine, since I had no inhibitions socializing and asking questions :). At any rate, I was particularly interested in the first part of the event, since it featured the Publish/Print on Demand Company CentralBooks, owned by the Sibal family. Present were Juan Carlos M. Sibal (VP for Operations), Ma. Alegria Sibal-Limjoco (Member, Governing Board), and Jose Paolo M. Sibal (VP for Finance & Administration).
Already had my eye on the company for my first book (am keeping it a secret for now :)), so the seminar was great in letting me check them out first-hand. And I liked what I saw. My impression from how they presented their service and answered the questions during the open discussion was that they were very flexible. Asked for example if they were open to the writers getting the royalties every quarter instead of every six months, they replied that they could give such a set-up consideration (got laughs for this by the way since being paid on time has been a perennial concern for writers). Also, the company works closely with the authors so as to be able to produce a particular book according to the author's preferences and specifications.
I observed that some of the authors were very open to the idea of Publishing on Demand. There was this one author and small publisher who told me however that CentralBooks was a bit on the high end. Meaning it is a bit costly for readers to afford. My attitude on the other hand is if it's something the readers want, then price should not be an issue (although it's not really that pricey). It's really up to the writer to convince his/her audience how invaluable his/her book is -- that they couldn't do without his or her book. Writers can't be passive nowadays. They have to be marketers and entrepreneurs too. (Will write more about this in the future.)
I really like the idea of Print on Demand. I've long wanted to have something like this in the country and was glad to know it had already arrived when I was first alerted to it by Butch Dalisay in his Philippine Star column. It transfers the power from the publisher to the writer. The writer gets to produce the book according to his terms -- how much his markup will be, how he wants to layout his book, when he can revise his book. etc. All of these, of course, was emphasized by the Sibal siblings. The writer can also, if he wants to, give CentralBooks permission to include his/her book in their bookstore inventory to help him out in the distribution and marketing side. One of the good news is that CentralBooks is about to open a branch at Glorietta which is a "mainstream" venue. Moreover, personally, the CentralBooks seminar inspired and encouraged me to start working on my first book soon.
Now, others used to call (and still are calling) this self-publishing route, vanity publishing. My take however is more positive. Why do you have to rely on the judgment of others to see if your book is viable? The point is, there are more publishing models emerging, and this is good for the writer, since more choices mean there are more alternatives for a writer to control his own destiny. Speaking of publishing models, this just occurred to me -- perhaps CentralBooks can also try out the Lulu.com route which combines the best of the worlds of traditional and print on demand publishing. More authors will be encouraged to produce works since there will be no monetary investment/cash outlay on their part except their time. And on the publisher's part this means publishing niches will be supplied, and if you combine all of these small markets, these could translate to more profit. (This is actually the Long Tail phenomenon brought on by the Internet -- think Amazon.com, eBay, and yes, Google -- and one of the assertions of this theory is that small niches/markets help out the mainstream products, and vice-versa. So from the publisher's point of view, this is actually a win-win situation. Will also write more about this later.)
The McGraw-Hill afternoon session on the other hand was of interest for the textbook and trade book authors, and there were a number of them at the seminar. MgGraw-Hill was looking for authors to adapt their books to the Philippine setting and/or translate their books for Philippine readers. They are also on the lookout for original book ideas/proposals.
I stood up and asked them the bottom line, i.e., how much royalty they usually give their authors. The answer was this: Usually it's 10% of net sales. So for example if a book is priced $20 and the cost is $5, the computation would be, the author earns, for every book, 10% of $15, which is $1.50. When I asked them how many books they usually sell, they replied that at the low-end, like Engineering books, they sell 100-200 books a year, while at the high-end, like Nursing books, 10,000 to 100,000 books can be sold annually. You do the rest of the Math.
Someone then pointed out that 10% of net may be too low -- Philippine industry standard is set at a percentage of the gross. I'm not that familiar with the industry standards but my parents' book, a textbook for early readers to be published by a Philippine publisher, I think is set at 15% of the gross. The beautiful ladies from McGraw-Hill -- Myla Gonzales-Katzav (Senior Marketing Executive Higher Education Division), Jennifer G. Javier (Marketing Executive Prof/Medical Division), and Estela Suyat replied that the author doesn't have any other expense (but shouldn't that be case?). At this point however, I was already too sleepy to wrap my head well around the discussion. Will look further into this to see how fair this certain kind of set-up is to the writer. At any rate, to learn more about McGraw-Hill, you may visit their website where their submission guidelines can be downloaded.
At the tail end of the seminar, also learned from various speakers, including Mr. Edgardo P. Sabalvoro (Executive Assistant V), of other projects in the works at NBDB. There's Virtual Book City, an online database of writers, illustrators and publishers, which will make networking and outsourcing easier for the publishing industry. There's also the Philippine Reproduction Rights Organization. The idea is for the authors to license their books to as many schools as possible so that their works can be photocopied by students. A percentage of the earnings goes to the author. In other words, the aim of the program is to "legitimize" piracy of copyrighted works as it were, and in the process benefit the author. The machines will keep track of the works being photocopied. I'm not sure yet how this has been received by the authors at large, but I think this program has merit since our economy thrives with "tingi" (piecemeal) models (think eLoad, autoLoad, etc.).
As you can see, really learned a lot from the seminar -- real-world stuff -- and I'm glad I came. The NBDB people were very helpful and very hospitable. Special thanks to Salvador "Jun" D. Briola, Jr. (Project Development Officer III Accreditation and Incentives Division) and Ma. Asena A. Galang (Research, Policies and Planning Division). I'm glad that the NBDB have all these projects geared towards helping the publishing industry especially the authors. You should join the NBDB's database. Am going to. 500 pesos for two years plus 100 pesos processing fee. In exchange you get to attend these NBDB seminars and also get alerted to their other activities.

So I know my car was real dirty from the first time, but can't figure why it never needs the bar again.
Because if you wax every few months it and wash it at least once a week, it will never need it. I haven't clayed my car in a year and it still shines every time I wash it.

5 steps to clearly communicating issues without exception
The issue with audit exceptions is that many audit functions include exceptions as the primary theme of audit report reportable items. Okay, there I said it. Now to provide an example.
I was recently reading an internal audit report from a governmental agency in which the auditors reviewed the bank reconciliation process. Part of the report issue read as follows:
During a review of the Bank Reconciliation process, the Auditors noted that:
- 12 of 25 bank reconciliations were not prepared in a timely manner
- The Controller did not review 15 of 25 bank reconciliations in a timely manner
- There was approximately $425,000 in outstanding items over 90 days old that were not identified, investigated or resolved
Some are, at this moment, saying "What is wrong with this? It presents the facts from the audit testing clearly and logically". In my opinion, this type of reporting leaves our stakeholders in a So What! state. We've told them that, based on audit work, something is possibly wrong. However, we have not told them the extent of the wrong nor the significance to the process or organization as a whole. In other words, we have not provided them with reasonable assurance that the process is broken or unbroken.
Before we go any further, let's define Issue and exception.
A deviation from the expected norm resulting from some sort of audit testing (i.e. detailed testing, walkthrough, etc).
A control breakdown within a process or function that may prevent the achievement of a goal or objective. An issue may result from a single exception or multiple exceptions.
So, here is a 5 step approach to providing stakeholders with better Audit Issues.
1. Consolidate
2. Evaluate
3. Separate
4. Just say it
5. Support it
To better understand the total environment under review, consolidate all audit exceptions into one exception log.
Use the exception log to evaluate items in aggregate. Attempt to identify commonalities in audit exceptions. This will help identify trends that may cross functions, sub functions, and departments. It also helps determine the true issue that led to the exception(s).
Separate yourself from the audit report. The audit report is based on work that you as auditors performed, however, it is not about you. Eliminate any language referencing the audit staff. For example, "The auditors noted" or "According to audit testing". Who cares. We all know that what you are reporting is based on some sort of test work performed.
Just say it!
Describe the issue early. One of the first three sentences should state the issue in an easy to understand tone. Auditors take for granted that stakeholders can read exceptions and automatically understand the underlying issue. This is not always true. Spell it out up front. Again, the first 3 sentences should explain what is wrong. Our stakeholders are not mind readers.
Support it
Now that you have communicated the problem, support it with the exceptions resulting from the testing.
Consider the following rewrite:
The current bank reconciliation process does not adequately prevent or detect banking irregularities including errors or theft. This is due to the fact that (1) bank reconciliation preparation, review and approval is not timely and (2) reconciling items are not investigated and resolved timely. For example, for the six months ended (whatever date)
- 48% of bank reconciliations are not prepared in a timely manner
- 60% of bank reconciliations are not reviewed in a timely manner
- $425,000 in outstanding items are over 90 days
Using this technique, we have told our stakeholders now know that the bank reconciliation process is broken (the real issue). We have also provided specific evidence that led to the this conclusion (the exceptions). Please bear in mind that this is only one of the 4 elements necessary for a good complete audit issue. The elemetns are Issue, Cause, Effect and Recommendation. The issue is the only item presented here. We could also add more perspective to this issue by including dollar amount at risk and other pertinent elements that were not available for rewrite. Handling exceptions and issues in this manner will help provide stakeholders with a clearer perspective on the true risks facing your organization.
A sample Audit Exception Log can be found at the document sharing website Auditor Exchange.

Admit it -- you're addicted to your phone. But just how bad is your addiction?
What had been a pretty slow month of September, movie-wise, is about to get a major jolt, with four new films hitting theaters this week. Here's a look at your suddenly bountiful choices:
While President Obama continues to lay out plans about how to deal with ISIS, it's hard to fathom there are actually some Americans who support the terror group.
After a week filled with off-the-field controversies, the NFL focused on football on Sunday. Upsets, injuries and amazing comebacks became the biggest storylines of Week 2. Here's a recap of this week's action:
In light of recent outbreaks of enterovirus across the country, the CDC is reminding parents that the best way to avoid contracting it to wash your hands.
If you think it takes effort to get a teenager off a cell phone, you have no idea how right you are. Earlier this month, three campus police officers wrestled a 15-year-old girl to the ground to take her phone, with one jamming his knee into her head.
Thursday morning, a memorial ceremony to honor those killed in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, was held in Lower Manhattan.
In Lower Manhattan, near the spot where the Twin Towers once stood, the reading of the names of those who died on September 11, 2001, began early Thursday morning.
Have you ever woken up and had no idea where you were, what time it was or even what day? It happens to more people than you might think.
Look, it's early, which usually means a lack of big games. But that doesn't mean we can't still have some fun this weekend. Here are the big questions going into Week 3:
Tonight President Obama took to the national airwaves for a rare prime-time address to describe what America's response would be to the Islamic State (aka ISIL or ISIS), the terrorist group that has taken over parts of Syria and Iraq, and also beheaded two American journalists.
In a week that didn't feature many marquee matchups, we still had our share of excitement with several upsets and exciting finishes. Here is what we learned in Week 2.

OK, Mailchimp does not have its own widget. So I bought your simple version. It seemed that I had to buy $20 credit to get the $6 software. That did not allow me to buy it with my credit and so I paid another $6 and bought it. It does have a widget but the settings are in HTML . It is NOT simple. I now see that CodeCanyon is just a reseller and does not even check out the products that they sell. When I paid the $20, for the $6 product, I thought "I'll probably get other products from them." Now I won't bother as I don't trust them. It was worth blowing $26 to learn who not to buy from! Lick my wounds and learn my lesson.
When you purchase an item, there is an option to use prepaid deposits. Also, you didn't have to deposit $20 to buy, it would have just cost $2 more. Every item goes through a review process and there are many items rejected everyday. If you feel you were mislead when buying the product you can contact support and request a refund.
Hi JamieHayes
Sorry to hear of your bad experience using the marketplaces here, but I assure you, none of the authors of the products or the owners of the site are trying to rip you off.
Most authors offer excellent support if you ask them. Just go to the authors page who created the item you bought and you can email them with any problems you are having. I'm sure they will be more than happy to help you.
Also, if you are unsure of purchasing an item, most offer live demos so you can see it working and all items have Comments pages as well, so you can see if the author offers good support or if other buyers have had the same problem.
These marketplaces are a great place to get really good software, themes and more at very good prices.
Hope that helps
As said above, it's best to contact the author from either their item page or their profile page. Most of the time (with a few unfortunate, rare exceptions) the authors will be more than happy to help you figure out the problem and answer any questions you have.
Please get in touch with the author and if that fails, get in touch with support.
Considering APIs change all the time, the item that you bought might be incompatible with a MailChimp update to their API .

Holley Carb Fast Idle Adjustment
I have installed a newly rebuilt Holley 600 CFM 80457S carb with electric choke on my Small Block Chevy.
Carb runs really well but had to make the usual adjustments, curb idle, etc,.
I'm trying to adjust the choke and fast idle but having difficulty.
Normal startup routine:
When cold, I pump accelerator once for an initial shot of gas through accelerator pump. Then, without touching the pedal, I crank the engine..and it fires and revs at 1800 RPMS...This is a bit high...so I give the accelerator another small pump...and insteading of the idle droping in a graduated steps, the engine RPM immediately drops below 1000 and eventually it stall because it is not warm enough.
My undertsanding is that as the car warms up and the choke slowly releases the Holley carb steps down the fast idle cam in graduated increments. Once fully warm it it reaches curb idle.
Is what I am experience normal? If not what am I doing wrong?
Manual says to adjust fast idle to about 1200-1500 RPM? But which step? the first one? There are five steps in Holley fast idle cam. BTW, the choke is set at it's middle lean/rich setting.
Once the engine is fully warmed, the Holley is solid and runs like a champ. But until 100% warm, I stall at least 2 times before I leave the driveway...a bit aggrevating)
Help and guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!

Port Allen CFO reinstated
PORT ALLEN - Chief Financial Officer Audrey McCain is back on the job after Mayor "Deedy" Slaughter fired her on Monday.
Slaughter said McCain needed to be fired after clerical errors turned up on the city's financial audit.
"I asked the auditor, I said, did this happen on last year, did we have the same findings, he said yes, so immediately I knew that something had to be done," said Slaughter.
But McCain was only CFO for a portion of the audit, and city council members said she was hired to fix problems left by her predecessor.
"There's no other way to put it, the books were in shambles, we had to hire an accounting firm to help him do the books, help him try to clean things up, and when Ms. McCain was hired for the position, assumed the position, it takes a while to clean that stuff up and she was well on her way," said Hugh Riviere, a council member in Port Allen.
"It took me a long time to gather all the problems, find them first, and fix them," said McCain, with her lawyer outside City Hall, just minutes after she was reinstated.
Now Slaughter wants to hire her brother-in-law to do McCain's job, despite calling the hire an ethical grey area.
"I want to do everything in my might, to make sure that the city of Port Allen, run smoothly and run forward, and I'm just asking the citizens to bear with me and give me that opportunity," said Slaughter.

LONDON – Bank of Japan Gov. Haruhiko Kuroda told the World Economic Forum's annual Davos meeting that it will take time before structural reforms in Japan begin to produce positive effects.
Since Prime Minister Shinzo Abe launched his "Abenomics" reflationary policy mix two years ago, the rate of female participation in Japan's national workforce has risen to a record high, Kuroda said Saturday, although it remains far lower than in OECD member countries.
While noting that structural reforms are "very important in the long run" and have "significant impact on growth potential," Kuroda said they "take time" to bear fruit.
"So I hope people are slightly more patient," he told the gathering in the Swiss resort town.
On growing concerns about the global economy, Kuroda said such fears are "a bit exaggerated" and predicted that falling oil prices and the European Central Bank's recent decision to start quantitative monetary easing will improve the global economic outlook.
The free-falling price of oil "could accelerate the global economic growth," he said, while the ECB's monetary decision is "certainly quite significant."
Kuroda said he is not worried about further depreciation of the euro stemming from the ECB's decision. Like Japan's central bank, the ECB does not target exchange rates, he noted.
He said the launch of quantitative easing means the eurozone economy "could recover strongly" and deflationary pressure "could be eradicated," adding that would be "great for the global economy."
