, the one-stop music licensing hub for online and digital media, is delighted to announce Christina Vaughan is taking up the position of CEO from the 1st of February.
Christina Vaughan joins CueSongs from award-winning
Image Source
, the leading independent image agency, which specialises in trend-driven stock imagery for inspiring communications, where as Founder and Chief Executive, she positioned Image Source at the forefront of the stock image revolution creating the leading global platform for distribution of premium royalty free imagery. Christina will remain as Chairman of Image Source but will relinquish day to day operations of the business to Anthony Harris, who becomes Image Source's CEO.
As the new CEO of Cue Songs, Christina Vaughan will oversee the initial deployment and beta testing of the new CuePro platform, which last year won the Technology Strategy Board competition, receiving a substantial grant to develop its "Frictionless Music Licensing for Online Broadcast".
Ed Averdieck, co-founder of CueSongs together with musician and music pioneer Peter Gabriel, moves up into the role of Chairman. Ed comments on the appointment: "We got to know Christina Vaughan when we agreed to partner with Image Source in September 2013, and we have since had a very positive working relationship both with her and with Image Source."
"Christina is the perfect person to lead and direct the commercial strategy of CueSongs at this new and exciting period of time. She understands the business of licensing premium content, developing global platforms and working with products and services for the benefit of both content creator and distributor. I am delighted to pass the executive baton to Christina at a time when CueSongs is uniquely positioned for growth as the online video market explodes and consumers acknowledge the value of high quality music in a commercial environment, which our new platform CuePro is poised to deliver on", Averdieck continues.
Christina Vaughan, CEO of CueSongs, says: "At a time huge change in both the video and music licensing industry, I recognise the pioneering spirit of CueSongs and that it is an idea whose time has come. The business model is based on solid pillars of team excellence and premium content and I realise the huge opportunity ahead of CueSongs as it pushes forward with its new frictionless commerce platform. Over the past 20 years, micro-licensing has transformed the stock photography industry and the music licensing industry is now similarly positioned for a paradigm-shift."
"I am very excited to be joining CueSongs at this pivotal time, and I look forward to drive and contribute to the global acceleration of the business. Image Source will always remain close to my heart and I know under Anthony's executive leadership, it will continue to be at the forefront of premium photography," Vaughan concludes.

It has to be done. I have been to quite a few places in and around the country and yet, I have never really explored the history of the city I was born in, at least not in recent years. I have seen and photographed remnants of the Spanish occupation in other parts of the Philippines. I guess it was time that I did so in my city, the country's capital, Manila.
Intramuros, Latin for within the walls, is a small territory located in the western part of Metro Manila, right by the bay and on the southern banks of the Pasig River. Back in the day, this walled city was considered the whole of Manila itself. Over the years, the territory covered by "Manila" expanded to the chaotic urban sprawl you see today.

text: ISLAMABAD - A sub-committee of the National Assembly has recommended Higher Education Commission (HEC) to form a taskforce to propose the role of provincial bodies after proper homework and consultations.The NA sub-committee on education, trainings and standards in higher education said in its meeting that higher education bodies at provincial level should not be established without proper consultation and comprehensive discussions, and that their functions should not contradict with those of the federal HEC.Acting Chairman HEC, Imtiaz Hussain Gillani, expressing apprehension that quality standards may be compromised said the functions of monitoring, quality assurance and allocations of development budgets should remain with the federal body. The discussants said the provincial HECs should be made after fulfilling all legal requirements and that these bodies should complement the federal HEC rather than contradicting its functions and policies. The committee members were of the view that the regulatory body of higher education institutes should also play its role in the development of society apart from degree attestation services.This news was published in The Nation newspaper.

Baby Rump Baby Shower Cake
This adorable baby's rump specialty cake was created for baby Cayden's shower with a color scheme to match his bedding! The cake was our own version of funfetti cake - white cake with rainbow sprinkles - filled and iced with french vanilla butter cream. The baby's rump was carrot cake. The cake was covered in fondant, and the blanket & baby's feet are also fondant. The dots are made of royal icing. We also created matching chocolate covered oreo party favors and chocolate chunk cupcakes to compliment the cake.

It's significant that nobody has bothered to review this 2006 disaster in IMDb 2 years down the track. Yes it's that bad: 60 minutes of boredom - nothing happens - followed by 20 minutes of utter confusion. The incompetents who made this think that suspense is generated by not revealing anything as the so called plot attempts to progress, but all that does is create confusion. When things finally start happening nothing has any rhyme nor reason. You constantly wonder: What is this? Why did that happen? Who is this person who just appeared out of the blue? Why are they doing that to that person? It's as though a quite reasonable initial concept was handed to a final-year film school class for an end of year project with the threat that the worst entry would be produced to show future students how not to do it. What I'd like to know is who was it that was stupid enough to get sucked into financing this amateur effort and then let the wannabees that put it together work in a vacuum? Wasn't anybody available to point out the glaring deficiencies before it was released? Amazing! 1/10.
Yes this film has deficiencies, it is confusing in places and the
ending is underdeveloped which I suppose the majority of viewers will
find frustrating. However, I found this refreshing and preferable to
some sort of cop out conclusion where everything is all neatly tied up
(like the superficially similar Dead End).
There is very little action and it is certainly slow moving but neither of these are to the films detriment and I personally thought this did create a sense of suspense.
In some respects Isolated has parallels with No Country For Old Men (but not as successfully realised ) and will obviously attract the same sort of criticisms regarding what is or isn't shown on screen.
Acting is pretty good all round and cinematography is excellent, the film is nicely understated, very atmospheric and despite the problems has enough interesting ideas in it to be worthy of a rental.

Notepad Clock Lets You Keep Track of Time and Your Tasks
Most of the time, memos, reminders, and to-do lists come with a deadline. With a deadline, time is the most important element that stipulates when or by when the task should be completed. Here's one gadget that brings together both the notepad and clock into a single item.
This is a gadget called the notepad clock, and just as it name states, is a clock that comes with a notepad attached to it.
With this notepad attached to the clock, it will be easy to refer to the time while reading or writing notes. While there are also digital means of doing the same thing, having a note with a clock attached to it means it stays more persistent sitting on a desk, where you'll always be aware of the presence of the task.
An interesting gadget that will be a useful gift for friends and loved ones.
The notepad clock retails for $25 from Uncommon Goods.

Learn, admire and be thoroughly entertained in the variety of museums such as the Children's Museum of Maine, the Portland Harbor Museum and Wadsworth-Longfellow House. Culture vultures will find plenty to applaud at venues such as Merrill Auditorium. The area is a great destination for those who love art. Make sure you see the Portland Museum of Art and the Maine College of Art.
Get your body moving out-of-doors at the many beautiful destinations nearby. Relax and enjoy the fresh air. Explore the nearby wilderness by heading to Mackworth Island.
If you have time in and around Westbrook, stop by Bug Light, Victoria Mansion and the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. The Cathedral Church of Saint Luke offer those exploring Portland a chance to better understand the religious history of the area.
After discovering the sights, sounds and smells of Westbrook, put up your feet and relax in one of the area's popular bed-and-breakfasts, hotels or short-stay apartments.

White Plains, New York

Jerome Whittaker is Barney's biological father.
Show Outline
As a child, Barney believed Jerome to be his "Uncle Jerry" with whom he would occasionally spend time. That was until July 23, 1981. On a trip to the New York Museum of Natural History, young Barney used a rib from a dinosaur exhibit and used it to knock down the giant model of a blue whale suspended from the ceiling. "Uncle Jerry" picked up Barney from security signing forms indicating that he was actually Barney's father. This was the last time Barney saw Whittaker as Barney's mother was so upset that he let Barney commit such an act of vandalism that he stopped coming to visit. (Natural History)
Throughout his life, Barney believed his father to be Bob Barker although he didn't tell his friends about the belief until he was accepted as contestant on Barker's show, "The Price is Right". (Showdown) However, Barney didn't confront Barker and years later, when his brother, James met his own father, Barney admitted that he knew Barker was not his real father. That evening, he confronted Loretta about the lie. Loretta explained that she always wanted to be enough of a parent for his children which is why she didn't tell them who their fathers were. She offered to tell Barney about his father but, realizing how great a mother he had, Barney tore up the proffered paper with his father's name. (Cleaning House)
However, months later, attending an event at the museum, Barney learned the truth about "Uncle Jerry" thanks to the form he signed in 1981. However, he told Robin that he wasn't going to act on the information and asked her not to share it. (Natural History)
Finally, after Marshall lost his own father, Barney realized the time had come and he was ready, so he called his mother asking for his contact information. (Last Words) Still, it would take time for Barney to get in contact with Whittaker. He later confides to Zoey's cousin Honey that he sent Jerome a letter and offered his phone number, but he never heard back from Jerome. (Oh Honey)
Jerome then finally made an appearance, showing up at Barney's front door. The two then spend the night at MacLaren's. In the following day, Barney stated that his meeting with his father was awesome, that they both ordered the same drink, that he is funny, he manages tours, and that he is a huge time player. The gang warns Barney not to get his hopes up as Jerome might have only told Barney what he wanted to hear. Although later, Jerome comes and ask the gang about Barney since he won't answer his calls. It is then revealed that Jerome is only a driving instructor and has a family.
The gang then holds an intervention for Barney, with Marshall convincing Barney to go meet his father since he still has one, while Marshall's dad passed away not long ago. Barney then has dinner with Jerome's family. At the dinner, Barney constantly mocks Jerome's son, J.J., to prove that he is a better son, to the point of insulting J.J.'s name. Jerome then reveals to Barney that J.J. stands for "Jerome Junior". After hearing this, Barney gets out of the house and tries to take down J.J.'s basketball hoop, claiming that J.J. had a real father and a real family so the hoop should at least be Barney's. Jerome asks Barney what is wrong, with Barney replying in anger that Jerome is just a "lame suburban dad". Jerome then asks why does that make him so mad, and Barney replies that if he was going to be some lame suburban dad why couldn't he have been that for him. Jerome then apologizes and tells Barney he would do anything to make it up to him. Barney then ignores him and continues to try to take down the hoop. Jerome then helps Barney by giving him a screwdriver and telling him how to unscrew the hoop. (Legendaddy)
Jerome later made an appearance again. Barney asked him to go into a bar with him for a drink and so that Jerome can be "Crazy Jerry", an apparently drunk version of him. Jerry then proceeds to drink since Barney forced him to and becomes "Crazy Jerry". After they both spend the night getting drunk and roaming in the streets, they both are caught by the police because Jerome puked on a police officer's car. Jerome then reveals that he actually tricked Barney into thinking he was doing some crazy stuff while it was really Barney's doing since he was drunk and Jerome wasn't. Barney and Jerome then escape by taking off their handcuffs. Jerome, a driving instructor, asks a student of his to give them a ride back home so Jerome can go fishing with J.J. In the car, Barney asks Jerome how he managed to become such a good guy when he was such a wild playboy. Barney also reveals that he feels it might be too late for him to be someone good like Jerome. Jerome doesn't reveal his secret, stating that "a magician never reveals his greatest trick", but he tells Barney that he just has to wait for the right woman.
After they arrive at Jerome's house, Jerome gets out of the car and greets Cheryl and J.J., and Barney decides to join Jerome and J.J. on the fishing trip. (Hopeless)

Als u op zoek bent naar een villa met privé-zwembad, op loopafstand van een prachtig zandstrand, restaurants en winkels dan is Villa Alexandra (EOT 0830K10000848501) bij Skala Beach is de perfecte keuze.
Deze villa aan het water is ideaal voor maximaal 6 personen, een perfecte villa voor de strandliefhebbers en als u op zoek bent naar alle voorzieningen in de buurt.
Villa Indeling:
Op de begane grond vindt u een open woonkamer vinden, die een volledig uitgeruste keuken, een eethoek met tafel en stoelen en een lounge met comfortabele banken (waaronder 2 sofa-bedden) en TV / DVD, CD-speler. Ook op deze verdieping is een aparte douche met toilet. Grote glazen patio deuren leiden vanuit de woonkamer naar het terras, barbecue en prive zwembad.
Op de 1e verdieping zijn de twee slaapkamers: een tweepersoonsbed met eigen badkamer met douche en een twin met een eigen badkamer met douche.(Bieden wij een kinderbedje ook). Franse deuren leiden van zowel van de slaapkamers op een balkon waar u kunt genieten van het uitzicht naar het strand en de zee. De mooie volledig aangelegde tuin beschikt over een eigen zwembad met ligbedden.
Villa Alexandra was more than we expected...beautiful villa, perfect location, perfect services and concierge team!
My fiance (now husband!) and I stayed at Villa Alexandra a couple of weeks ago, before moving to another villa to get married. Overall, the villa was very nice, but I found the photographs a little misleading. The villas looked a very high standard, but there were little things that let it down, such as a door handle falling off for the master bedroom, water dripping through the ceiling in the downstairs toilet and mainly no information on how to work anything in the villa. We asked about how we turn the hot water on and no one got back to us regarding this, eventually we found a panel behind a picture in the living room that had one switch off, so we assumed this was correct and luckily we were right. It would of been nice to of been told how to use the dishwasher etc, as all the buttons were in greek.
However, the week was lovely. The pool was gorgeous and the view very pretty. We had a supermarket next door and this was awesome and we went several times a day. We felt very safe and secure as the few villas together have a gate at the front. It is also a very good location for walking to and from town and the beach. A little tip - the door locks even without the key, so be careful not to go out without it, as you won't be able to get back in. The cleaner was very nice and helpful, she came a few times and even helped us put down the massive baby bed we did not want. She turned our towels into swans and flowers when she found out we were getting married, which was so sweet. She also got rid of all our rubbish without us even realising she was there.
There are many delicious restaurants near by, Old Times on the way up away from Skala is brilliant and the other delicious ones are in the centre of town. There is lots of choice and most things are really cheap. The only expensive thing we found was suncream, 12euro+ a bottle, so try to take enough in luggage if you can, as it is hot hot hot! I would recommend staying here and overall we had a lovely week.
Overall the villa is lovely and the outdoor area was fantastic. It's perfectly situated for the beach as well as a short walk to the main square. This was our 5th visit to Kefalonia and 4th to Skala so we knew what a treat we were in for. It has however become much more built up with some noise from local bars but the villa was well soundproofed.
On the whole it was well equipped although lacked pots and pans! And the showers could do with updating - but aside we had a wonderful relaxing time never venturing very far from The wonderful pool and garden area.
The concierge service met us at the airport to ensure our onward journey went smoothly and visited us at the Villa and gave us some really useful local information that would be really useful if you were less familiar with the area.
We really enjoyed our holiday in this gorgeous villa. The view was wonderful and the villa perfect for our needs. The housekeeper Mrs Marinella is extremely helpful and provided us with excellent service throughout our stay. My only suggestion would be to equip the kitchen with a few more saucepans as there were only two.
We had an excellent holiday and highly recommend this villa.
This was our second stay in Skala and we chose this villa for it's location which is just a 10 minute walk from the town centre and right on the beach. The villa has a great outdoor space and a lovely pool, great for spending lazy days just chilling out. The villa itself it well laid out and comfortable. One the whole it is well equipped and maintained but there are some limitations (lack of pans meaning it was difficult to cater in the villa for ourselves) and a few minor maintenance issues. The villa comes with a maid service once per week where the linen and towels are changed and the villa cleaned. The pool was also cleaned and the outdoor area maintained every few days too. Overall this is a good villa. What sells this villa is it's location for the beach and the town. The addition of the Ammos beach bar about 1 minute away is great. There is some building work near to the villa which may obscure the view slightly when finished but we were informed the buildings were going to be a supermarket, cafe and a taverna - all amenities that will add to the overall location of the villa.
The booking also came with a concierge service meaning we were met at the airport which was nice. We were disappointed when we complained about the lack of pans (just one massive pan and two tiny pans) to be informed no additional ones would be provided - luckily our friends were staying in the villa next door and they lent us a pan for cooking for our two young children.
Villa Alexandra had been recommended to us by friends who stayed in the villa next door last August (2015) and all the pictures and details sent to us looked perfect! Sadly the reality was completely different - instead of a lovely field between us and the sea, there was a building site under full construction..... Building work started most days at 0745 with compressors, concrete mixers etc., and sometimes did not finish until 6.30pm and so totally ruined our stay. We got in contact with the person responsible who initially said that it was not their problem and they didn't have to notify us about this building work and were not prepared to find us alternative accommodation. So we took matters into our own hands, found somewhere else to stay for the last 4 days and asked for a refund - which we did receive almost immediately. Besides this major problem, there were quite a few minor problems at the villa - like the hot water not coming through in the shower upstairs - which we could have coped with if there had not been the major problem with the building site in front of the villa. They have a list of all these and hopefully 1) aren't letting it out while the building work is going on and 2) have attended to the other problems.
De villa is gelegen in toeristische badplaats Skala aan de zuidoostelijke punt van het eiland, op een uitstekende locatie op slechts 30 meter van het lange Blauwe Vlag strand van Skala, en 50 meter van de dichtstbijzijnde taverna's en mini-markten. Skala zelf is slechts een rustige wandeling afstand waar u een ruime keuze aan restaurants voor ieder wat wils samen met een aantal souvenirwinkels en mini-markten vinden. Night-leven in Skala is vrij low key, maar er zijn een aantal cafe's, bars, dat de catering voor degenen die willen iets een beetje meer levendig. Zonder twijfel het hoogtepunt van dit resort is het strand die onlangs werd bekroond met de felbegeerde Blauwe Vlag. Met het zand voorzichtig rekken in het kristalheldere turquoise water van de Ionische zee, ligbedden en parasols te huur, en het strand bars waar de hele dag hapjes en drankjes is het de perfecte plek om te ontspannen. Voor degenen onder u die willen een beetje meer opwinding waarom niet proberen een van de verschillende watersporten.
Andere activiteiten: Traditionele dansen, boot met glazen bodem BBQ feesten op het strand
Golf: Mini golf op de markt centrum in Skala dorp.

Christopher Bailey talks Burberry shake-up
Christopher Bailey felt that Burberry needed some "real business expertise" so hired Marco Gobbetti.
Gobbetti, who was formerly at Celine, is part of the business shake-up at the British brand. He will take on the role of chief executive, while designer Bailey will now also helm the roles of president and chief creative officer.
Talking about the new appointment, Bailey explains Burberry has become a "truly omnichannel digital and physical retail business" in recent years, which need to be reflected in its staff.
"I just felt that we need some real retail expertise in the company, but I needed to do a more formal business review to really identify exactly how we were going to do that," he told Business of Fashion. "Simultaneously I had started to look for somebody I could partner with, who really had the gravitas or the experience of a true luxury retailer. And that kind of eventually led me to meeting Marco."
Gobbetti, who has also worked at Givenchy, and Bailey had instant chemistry when they first met, with the Burberry designer praising Gobbetti's profound understanding of retail and his global experience. They will now work together to develop the luxury label's strategy and culture.
Bailey has been with the brand since 2001, taking on the CEO role in 2014. While he has a lot on his plate work wise, he's happy to lead his team through the fashion house's next stage.
"I think the role of any leader is to take themselves out of the situation and to say what is right for the company going forward," he explained. "And that is what I have always done, throughout my career, not just at Burberry, and to know and identify what my skills are, where I add the most value and where my strengths are not and where we need to add those strengths."

About this title
Millions adore him. A philanthropist. Anti-drug crusader. Peace activist. And former pop star the likes of which the world has never seen. Sir Damian Cray even has the president's car. Yet the president's car is not enough for Damian-he wants more. Such as the president's fingerprints. So he can manipulate computer systems only the President of the United States has access to. So he can launch nuclear missiles. From aboard Air Force One. All in the name of peace...So what if a few million lives are lost in the process?
Teen spy Alex Rider survives a bullfight, a high-speed bicycle chase through Amsterdam, and even being the target in a human video-game, only to face his most disturbing challenge yet: when the best of intentions are driven by insanity, how do you reason with a madman?Review:
Anthony Horowitz's enormously popular series about the world's premier teenage spy, returns for another round with secret agent Alex Rider fighting ingenious villains and charming every girl he meets. Eagle Strike, Horowitz's fourth fictional foray into the world of British spy agency MI6, starts out calmly enough as Alex and his lovely companion, Miss Sabina Pleasure, vacation with her family in the south of France. But before you can say Goldfinger, Alex spots his old nemesis, renowned assassin Yassen Gregorovich, on the beach. What Alex discovers is a plan so diabolical that it makes all of his previous adventures seem like a stroll in the Queen Mum's garden. Alex must fight to keep Gregorovich from executing the plans of a mysterious and murderous madman--an operation code named "Eagle Strike." He will just have to face down a few minor complications first: a virtual reality game that inflicts real pain; a fleet of Porche 911 GT3-driving hit men; and even a near fatal brush with death aboard the most famous aircraft in the world, Air Force One. But he'll persevere, or his name isn't Rider: Alex Rider. Eagle Strike, like all of the ridiculously fun Alex Rider adventures, is a pure guilty pleasure from start to finish. Even the most reluctant of readers won't be able to resist Alex's Bond-like ingenuity and charisma. Anthony Horowitz is a master of pacing, and as Alex swings from one cliff-hanging chapter to the next, Horowitz proves that you don't have to be Shakespeare to pen a crackerjack plot! --Jennifer Hubert

Fabulously Fun Friday ~ Are you a Terrible Speller?
5 comments:
Is Scribendi a real company? If so, what a great commercial. Funny typos, either way. ;)ReplyDelete
I used to have very little patience with poor spellers, thinking it was mostly lack of caring. I still think some of it is (since an easy way to become a good speller is bother to have a good proof-reader, or bother to double-check the spelling of the book title and author's name).ReplyDelete
I'm terrible with names. At knitting club, I remember who has the daughter and who works at the clothing store, but not names.
Katie, They are real - an editing and proofreading company. www.scribendi.comReplyDelete
Cricketb, perhaps it is a lack of caring for some. I was just talking to one of the teacher's at my kids' school the other day and she mentioned several architects she knew who were all terrible spellers. They could see a new design and figure out how to apply it to a building, but spelling didn't come easy. I think God wired all of us differently, and for some, that means we don't see the spelling mistakes because we see what was meant to be said and don't stop to analyze the details. Even with the above video where I knew there would be a spelling mistake in each new slide, sometimes I had to stop the video and go back to see what the mistake actually was.
My favorites were "Harvard Universty," "English is Our Language No Excetions," and Rachael Ray cooks her family and her dog. You'd think at least sign painters would stop and make sure words like "valet" are spelled right. On the other hand, maybe that's what their client wanted painted, and the painter's job is not to correct errors. I don't know.ReplyDelete
All I no is, I'm a gud speler. ;)
Victor, I like the "no exetions" too. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving.ReplyDelete


text: Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre chooses Xirrus Wi-Fi 24 May 2013 02:01 PM Xirrus deploys 38 Wireless Arrays across the 22,000 sq. ft. of venues and conference hall to provide Wi-Fi access for the 200-300 events held every yearXirrus is supplying the Scottish Exhibition and Conference Centre (SECC) with its Wireless Arrays to deliver high capacity connectivity to the venue's 2.2 million annual visitors.The SECC will now be able to provide wireless access across its conference, exhibition, concerts and events halls. The venue hosts between 200 to 300 events annually, ranging from large-scale international conferences, conventions and large meetings, to exhibitions, trade shows and concerts.Alan Taylor, IT manager at the SECC, said: 'Over the past two years, we've seen an explosion in connected devices and mobile applications, adding to the interactivity and content of our events. Our delegates and visitors are increasingly expected to be 'always-on' so Wi-Fi is the big ask that people have when they come to venue.'Our visitors need to have seamless connectivity and online access at all times, whether it be for accessing event content on interactive apps on their smartphones, or keeping in touch with the office. In order to cope with this activity, we require a secure, fast wireless network that provides the best possible service to visitors,' he continued.The venue provides a wide range of conference, exhibition and concert facilities, which range from 22,000 square metres of flexible space throughout five halls, to the iconic Clyde Auditorium, a purpose-built 3,000 seat conference centre.The solution had to provide seamless coverage across these spaces as delegates move from one to another. To address these issues the SECC installed 38 Xirrus Wireless Arrays to provide ubiquitous wireless access throughout the venue and the Armadillo.Xirrus was deemed the only vendor that could provide high density, high capacity coverage, without the need to purchase as many access points as a traditional vendor's solution would require.'Xirrus provided a great deal of consultancy, and were transparent and professional throughout the whole process,' said Taylor. 'We were impressed by Xirrus' site survey, which was the most comprehensive we experienced. The end result was a predictive survey and detailed analysis report to ascertain the level of coverage required – we didn't get this much insight from other providers.'The spaces we had to cover are pretty vast, so covering the full scale of the venue and different areas, this was a challenge that we looked to Xirrus to address. Other vendors were unable to provide the level of Wi-Fi expertise and pre-sales support that Xirrus did.'A great benefit to the unique design of the Wireless Arrays is that they minimise disruption when installing the technology within the venue, as you can run fibre directly through them if necessary. This also helps to reduce the level of infrastructure required in the halls.'The Xirrus arrays enable us to future-proof our investment, as they are designed to support the new 802.11ac standard, so if we want to upgrade, we can add or swap 802.11ac modules into existing chassis. This wouldn't be possible with a traditional system and is particularly important in the events industry, where flexibility is a key value-add to our corporate customers and partners,' Taylor added.'With many site visitors still using older smartphones, we wanted a system that would allow us to configure radios accordingly. The new infrastructure optimises the Wi-Fi connections for those older devices operating in the 2.4 GHz range, as well as the increasing number of those operating in the 5GHz range such as the new iPhone 5. This gives us power to be flexible during events, for example if organisers have high technical specifications, then we can switch the spectrum on the fly to suit relevant devices,' said Taylor.Sean Larner, VP of International Sales at Xirrus, said: 'Over the past 18 months, events and exhibition visitors have come to regard reliable Wi-Fi connectivity as a given right. It's therefore crucial for businesses within this space to provide a robust wireless network that can not only accommodate consumers' bandwidth-heavy applications, but enable exhibitors to use rich-functionality apps to enhance the visitor experience at the SECC.'Following on from the success of the initial implementation in March 2012, the SECC has also acquired Xirrus Wireless Arrays for its new music and events arena, The Hydro. Designed by world-renowned architects Foster and Partners, and opening later this year, The Hydro will seat 12,000 and be the first purpose built concert venue of its scale. It will play host to around 140 events each year, including concerts, major comedy stars and sporting events. The SECC is starting to install the arrays over the next two to three months, with testing expected to commence in June.Wireless magazineLeave a CommentPlease write code to prove you're humanMore on...

About MeI am still trying to build my portfolio, so if there is anything that I can do to help you, I'm interested as it will help me as well. I have a small portrait studio that can do head shots to full body shots for a single person, or small group of people. My portrait studio is in a storage facility, so daytime/evening weekend hours and early evening weeknight hours are of course best, but if special arrangements need to be made, I am open to doing so. I also can do on location shoots as well. Always interested in models looking to trade, as I really need to build up my portfolio as well. I have a decent temporary studio, out of a storage facility, but I make it work, and frankly with great results.

As with any new endeavor, consumers should weigh the good, the bad and sometimes the ugly before making an informed decision.
When it comes to prepaid debit cards, many experts contend there's really only "bad" and "ugly" involved.
However, looking at the positive aspects, prepaid debit cards provide the unbanked consumer with access to cash using plastic without having to open a checking account.
"Unbanked and underbanked [people] are a popular market for these cards, which is one reason one might end up with a prepaid card. And it may be cheaper than a checking account, especially if you've been paying overdraft fees lately," Gerri Detweiler, director of consumer education at Credit.com tells The Street.
Checking account fees can run as high as $15 a month just for maintenance, not to mention overdraft and NSF fees.
Additionally, prepaid debit cards are relatively easy to use. Simply load the card (and in most cases, reload again and again) and start shopping. Plus what teenage girl wouldn't feel extra special buying that cute cardigan using her Justin Bieber prepaid debit card?
In fact numerous celebs are slapping their mug upon prepaid debit cards ranging from the George Lopez to Suze Orman.
Personal Finance Digest broke down the celebrity prepaid debit card choices and found that they were riddled with fees, with some cards not even donning the celebrity's photo on the card (reducing its street cred).
Fees seem to be one of the biggest concerns surrounding prepaid debit cards. While many banks charge a fee to open and maintain a regular checking account (often like the prepaid debit card), most credit unions offer a fee-free account that comes with a free debit card.
For the Justin Bieber prepaid card alone, WFMY News found that cardholders must pay a monthly fee of $3.95 in addition to the loading charge from another debit card of $2.95 ($.75 from a checking or savings account). If you lose the card, its $7.95 for a replacement and if you haven't used the card in 90 days you'll be slapped with a $3.00 fee. The user is also charged $1.50 for making a withdrawal and $.50 for a balance inquiry.
Lil Wayne's prepaid debit card has $7 activation fee, $5 reload fee and a $4 monthly fee. Even if you don't go for a celebrity card, chances are you'll still be hit hard with fees.
"It's hard to find a prepaid card without a menu of different fees, from a monthly fee, to an inactivity fee, to a fee for a paper statement, plus fees for talking to a customer service representative," Detweiler says.
If you are trying to establish or re-establish credit, don't look to a prepaid debit card for help.
Because you aren't taking a line of credit, but instead simply recycling your own money through plastic, you aren't going to show up on Experian, Equifax or Transunion's radar. Credit bureaus base their score decision on how you manage other people's (bank's or credit union's) money so being able to use a prepaid debit card won't provide you with any advantages for credit building.
What can help is to open a credit union credit builder account, like the one offered at Digital Federal Credit Union ($4.7 billion, Marlborough, MA). The amount you borrow is deposited into your DCU savings account and you make regular payments on the loan, which establishes a positive payment history.
Another path is to open a second chance checking account at a credit union. While most second chance accounts charge a monthly fee, fees are typically lower than what is associated with the prepaid debit card, plus the member can build credit and use a debit card at the same time.
Although there may be some safeguards in place for most prepaid debit cards, fraud and theft protection may not be as extensive as what you might find with a regular credit or debit card.
"With a credit card, the most you can be held liable for is $50 and the ability to dispute a charge. There is no ability to dispute charges with a debit or prepaid debit card," Detweiler says.
For example, State Employees' Credit Union ($437 million, Raleigh, NC) states on its website (with regard to its debit card), "If you believe your card and PIN have been lost or stolen and notify us within two business days, your liability will not exceed $50.00 if someone uses your card and PIN without your permission."
Before you invest in a prepaid debit card, check with a credit union near you and ask about associated checking account fees. Compare and contrast what you would pay for a prepaid debit card versus a credit union checking (with debit card and vast electronic services) before making a decision.By Gina Ragusa

Cannon River One Watershed, One Plan Map
In 2016 planning partners joined together to submit an application to the Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR)
to develop One Watershed, One Plan (1W1P) for the Cannon River Watershed. The goal of 1W1P is to align local water
planning on major watershed boundaries with state strategies towards prioritized, targeted and measureable
implementation plans. In August 2016, BWSR selected the Cannon River as one of seven major watersheds across the
state to receive a planning grant.
In late 2016, the County and SWCD Boards in each of the six counties predominantly located within the watershed,
along with the Belle Creek Watershed District and the North Cannon River Watershed Management Organization, entered
into a Memorandum of Agreement for the purpose of developing a watershed plan. The planning area encompasses
952,933 acres and a wide variety of land uses.
The process is locally lead through a Policy Committee comprised of one elected official from each of the 14
Local Government Units within the watershed. It will involve a broad range of stakeholders throughout the process
including the use of an Advisory Committee and public meetings. The resulting plan will address the most
significant threats to our water resources and an implementation strategy that provides the greatest benefit to
the watershed.

The single overhead camshaft engines use rocker arms that are removed in the process of removing the rocker shafts. To remove the rocker shafts, it is impossible not to remove the rocker arms. See rockershaft/arm removal in this section.
The double overhead camshaft engines use a direct valve actuation through a bucket and shim as on the M3 and M5 engines or a hydraulic lash adjuster as on the 5 Series engines.
The bucket and shim lifters on the M Series engines are removed after the camshafts have been removed. Mark their locations and lift them from their bores. The lifters must be replaced in the original positions. Measure the lifter bore with an inside micrometer and the outside diameter of the lifter with an outside micrometer. The difference should be 0.0010-0.0026 inches (0.025-0.066mm).
The hydraulic lifters on equipped engines are kept in the bearing plates for most operations. They can be held in place using BMW tool 11 3 250 or equivalent. Check the lifters for scoring and wear.

Tips for Selling Homes in a Cool Market
Let's face it: This isn't the best time of year to sell a home. (It isn't the best market, either. But that's another story.) Many would-be buyers are busy with everything from holiday shopping to decorating trees. Plus, there's the weather element: How many open houses have been delayed — or even cancelled — by a few inches of snow or icy roads?
But if you have to sell, RE/MAX offers a few tips:
Push for day showings: A home shows to its best advantage during daylight hours. "Encourage your agent to show your home before 3 p.m. and have it ready to show by 9 a.m. if you want the best results," recommends Marlene Granacki of RE/MAX Exclusive Properties in Chicago.

STAMFORD, CT—Sheraton Hotels has returned to the Dominican Republic with the opening of Sheraton Santo Domingo Hotel.
Formerly known as Melia Santo Domingo, the newly renovated hotel offers 255 guestrooms and suites with ocean views. Hoteles Nacionales, owner and operator of the property, completed a comprehensive $12-million renovation to implement all the Sheraton brand's signature services and amenities prior to flying the Sheraton flag.
Sheraton Santo Domingo Hotel is Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide, Inc.'s third property in the Dominican Republic, joining the recently opened Four Points by Sheraton Punta Cana Village and The Westin Punta Cana Resort & Club.
Sheraton Santo Domingo Hotel is located on Avenida George Washington, the city's luxurious waterfront avenue lined with palm trees, hotels, casinos and boutiques. Just five minutes from downtown Santo Domingo, the hotel is walking distance to the city's Colonial Center, 15 minutes from the business district and a 30 minute drive from Las Americas International Airport (SDQ).
Highlights of the hotel include a large casino, an outdoor swimming pool and five-star dining. The hotel's renovated lobby features the signature Link@Sheraton experience with Microsoft. All guestrooms were refurbished and outfitted with the all-white Sheraton Sweet Sleeper bed, an oversized work desk, ergonomic chair, high-speed Internet and 42-in. flat panel television.
The hotel also offers 22,500 sq. ft. of state-of-the-art meeting space including 11 conference rooms. Additional amenities include the hotel's freshly renovated fitness facility, including steam rooms, massage facility and a sauna.

Well, Allianz Global Assistance (AGA) just released data earlier this week saying that Americans are spending more on summer vacations this year, topping $100 billion for the first time in the AGA survey's eight-year history. This represents a 12.5% increase over last year.

Ben Rhydding 1 Preston 5
Ben Rhydding experienced mixed fortunes in their double-header weekend with a defeat on Saturday being followed by the win that guarantees their place in the Men's North Premier League for next season.
The home side knew they were in for a tough time against Preston as they had six players missing from their squad.
Despite their problems they competed well with their in-form opponents and had the better of the opening 20 minutes.
Robbie Studholme came within inches of a great sliding deflection and Danny Foster just missed a chance at the far post.
It was against the run of play that Preston scored, but Rhydding hit back to pose problems.
The second half began with end to end hockey and David Carter made many stunning saves.
Fine performances from Andy Clemerson, Kieran Borrett and Will Musgrave ensured an even number of circle entries across the two teams but Preston edged ahead with a good overload from a fast-break.
Despite superb defending, Preston squeezed in another to go 3-0 up. Rhydding continued to match Preston and got back in the game after Musgrave scorched a drag flick home.
Preston went on to score another goal against the run and then rounded off their tally from a controversial corner on the final whistle.
Ben Rhydding 3 York 2
A tired Ben Rhydding side, minus three more players, was made to work for victory by an already relegated York side.
Rhydding started badly and seemed slow and hapless. David Carter was called upon almost immediately to make some surprising saves.
Danny Foster had two exceptional days at half-back and somehow managed to produce another game of high quality amid testing and trying conditions.
Dave Exley was as solid as ever at the back and Andy Clemerson was highly influential throughout.
Rhydding pulled back into contention but were visibly struggling. Jet-lagged Ali Jordan looked half the player he normally is but still covered a huge amount of ground and this helped Rhydding string together some trademark passages of beautiful hockey.
Elliot Dowley showed some sublime skills in midfield and caused York real problems but the end product refused to materialise.
York caught the home side on the break and a cheeky touch on a through ball saw a lucky deflection put the visitors ahead.
Things went from bad to worse when full back, Connor Dowley left the field with a hamstring injury. However, Rhydding found a new rhythm and the gifted Will Musgrave seized the opportunity to level the scores with a lethal drag flick from a well-earned corner.
He took his team into the lead with a well-executed penalty stroke and Ben Rhydding began to look like they might pull further ahead.
With the oldest midfielder being just 17, Rhydding were short on experience but they made up for it with their skill, bravery and resilience.
Conscientious defending from Ross McMillan, Nick Woodhead and Matty Birch kept York out of the danger areas.
However, with both teams looking fatigued, marking became loose and York were able to exploit this to level the scores.
Ben Rhydding stepped up their play in the last part of the game and Andrew Lorimer scored from a well-worked corner routine.

He had casts on both hands and he weighs nearly 270 pounds, but defensive end Demarcus Dobbs showed he had all the athleticism of his slimmer cohorts in the Georgia secondary when he intercepted his second pass of the season Saturday against Kentucky.
"I was thinking he must have caught it with the good hand, and then I looked at him and he had a cast on both hands," head coach Mark Richt said. "I think we might have to move him to tight end now."
Dobbs said he's not looking for a change, but if the offer is there, he'll be happy to try his hand at offense. After all, he said, he thinks he has the best hands on the team.
"I told Coach Richt that I'm up for any challenge," Dobbs said. "If he wants to put me in at tight end, I'll do the best I can."
With 13 tackles and 1.5 sacks in limited action on the defensive line, Georgia's coaches are probably happy leaving Dobbs where he is. That, however, doesn't mean he's done hauling in passes. In fact, Dobbs said he has already informed teammate Reshad Jones that he's gunning for the team lead in interceptions.
"Reshad already knows that," Dobbs said. "He knows the heat is on. He knew the heat was on when I got my first one. I told everybody I was going to get another one, but nobody believed me."
Georgia's postseason prospects still remain a mystery, but wins in their final two games would likely send the Bulldogs to either the Capital One Bowl in Orlando, Fla. against a Big Ten team or the Cotton Bowl in Dallas against a foe from the Big 12.
Either trip would be fine, quarterback Matthew Stafford said, but for different reasons.
With a few breaks, Georgia could face Ohio State in the Capital One Bowl, and Stafford sees that as a big-time matchup against a team that lost to SEC foes in the national championship game the past two years.
"I think that'd be cool," Stafford said. "It would be getting them up against another SEC team and a chance for them to kind of redeem themselves for what's happened the past couple years."
Of course, a trip to the Cotton Bowl would be a homecoming for Stafford, who grew up near Dallas.
"Obviously I'd like to play at home in front of some of my friends and family in Dallas," Stafford said. "I'd probably need to get about 50 tickets for that game which would be tough. But it'd be fun. I could advice Coach Richt on some good restaurants to go to."

Pokemon Diamond Version
Best Starter + Strategy?
So, what's the best starter to use and the best team you can form around it?
So far I've beaten the game twice, both with Empoleon, the 2nd time with only Empoleon.
I've heard potential about Chimchar, but it's level up moveset just doesn't fit for me. But, perhaps someone could help me a build up a good storyline team around it?

Infernape is one of the best Pokemon around right now, competitively, due to how versatile it is. Its big downfall is its inability to take hits, but since it can hit so hard - physically, specially, or BOTH on the same moveset - and is really fast, you'll be wiping things out in the game pretty easily, especially with two 120-power STAB moves. I had a pretty simple team built around him in my old Diamond game; Floatzel, Roserade, Luxray, Bronzong, & Lucario. In Platinum I swapped the last two out for Garchomp & Gallade.
Torterra I don't have any experience with, but the guy is pretty good as a tank, with his stats leaning toward the physical side. He's sure got a good physical set to go with Grass and Ground STAB, and naturally he's super slow. I'd probably run a similar storyline team around him as well, though naturally without Roserade. I'd probably try out something new & interesting in Roserade's place, or just settle on Staraptor or Rapidash.
SmokeRulz (Expert) - 7 years ago
I would pick either water or grass because the 1st gym is rock and type doesnt really matter when u 1st start the game because u dont learn any special attacks. I chose turtwig because it evolves faster than the others making it a little stronger. You should then catch a starly a flying type will be good in the future. Make sure if u do decide 2 choose turtwig to train really hard before you get to ourberg (i know i spelt it wrong) and maybe in the cave u could catch a geodude which not many ppl do but a golem would b pretty awesome as long as u could evolve the gravellor through trade.
I hope this helps u out and i would like 2 find out what u ended up choosing and how u go at the gym. I would give u my friend code but i live in a hole town so wi-fi doesnt work!
Good luck on ur adventure and try not 2 get hooked (to the game)
TheDialgaSage - 7 years ago
As far as the best starter goes you should choose Infernape. Torterra ends up having a double weakness to ice, and Empoleon has a double weakness to elecricity. Being both fire and fighting type means that Infernape has no double weaknesses and also having both fire and fighting moves help a lot in gyms. I dont know how you fight, but i would consider getting a Water/Ground type like Gastrodon or Wiscash. You will also need a rlly strong (and fast) flying type, like Starraptor or Honchkrow. You might also want a dark pokemon or a pokemon who knows strong dark moves. A psi pokemon with that will tie things together nicely, as will a grass type. After this get an ice type, prefferabley amabasnow. now since abamasnow is a grass type, he can replace the above mentioned grass type, but youd do better just to teach abamasnow mostly ice moves.
Although Infernape is the best starter, I personally perfer Torterra, but thats only because I like to have a good grass type on my team and the other grass types in the game are pretty much useless. Also Torterra deals out some pretty good special attacks, which have saved me many times in gyms and such.
Currently Im playing through with a Torterra, Lucario, Honchkrow, Wiscash, Raichu, and Alakasam (sp?). So far its a pretty good team, and I havent run into any problems.
beast_catalyst - 7 years ago
Empoleon is a great starter Pokemon because of its multiple resistances and its versatility. But there are better Pokemon, like Infernape. It has a varied move pool including Grass Knot and many others (thanks TMs). It has equal attack and Special atk, making it very varied and very unpredictable, especially that monster Speed stat. If you don't kill it first (virtually impossible with that speed stat) it'll probably OHKO you. Its weakness is that while so versatile, it can only have 4 moves, so once you figure out what the enemy Infernape has, you can take it out.
Torterra isn't as strong, but it's the toughest of the three. High defense and HP make it the perfect Sub-Seed staller, as well as a great wall, dishing out lots of damage as well. Problem is, it should have debuted earlier- Pokemon carry Fire to wipe out Skarmory and Bronzong, Pokemon carry Ice to wipe out Dragon types, and it's weak to both, especially Ice. (source: serebii.net)
prinnyamongmen - 7 years ago
I think that torterra is the best even though it has a double weakness. One reason is that it has an extremely high hp and defennse against hell its even good at most gyms. Right now my team consists of 6 lvl 100s. They are arceus, darkri, torterra, shiny deoxys (attttack form), garchomp, and lucario
draconnan13 - 7 years ago
According to me the best pokemons are the ones which are fast and have a very high attack. That's why I didn't choose slow pokes like torterra and empoleon. Infernape is very fast and has a very high attack. You might not even need defence when you have a high speed and attack, because you get to attack your enemy first (more speed allows you)and your attack will be very high too. So you can KO it on first hit. You should always choose rare pokemons that are difficult to get, in your party. Such pokemon have very stats and good moves. I had infernape, lucario, and garchomp for my battle tower team.
ghuggi - 7 years ago
Empoleon is the best because when a piplup it can learn peck for the 2 gym although better to get starly.I have a empoleon,luxray,starapter,pachirisu,manaphy and steelix.Empoleons the best if u know the moves to teach it.But its up to u.

James Cameron's blockbuster hit Titanic is about to get even bigger.
To celebrate the 100th anniversary of the ship's April 10, 1912 historic maiden and final voyage, the film will be released in 3-D in theaters on April 6, 2012. "There's a whole generation that's never seen Titanic as it was meant to be seen, on the big screen," says director Cameron in a statement. "And this will be Titanic as you've never seen it before, digitally re-mastered at 4K and painstakingly converted to 3D. With the emotional power intact and the images more powerful than ever, this will be an epic experience for fans and newcomers alike."
Originally released in 1997, Titanic stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet. The film was nominated for a record-breaking 14 Academy Awards and won 11.
