We're proud to be one of the top destinations for Cypriot students in the UK. Middlesex University has had strong links to Cyprus and to our local Cypriot community in North London for generations - we're now teaching the sons and daughters of graduates who studied with us in the 1960s and 1970s.
We offer a wide range of opportunities for Cypriot students. Our courses are designed to prepare you for success in today's global jobs market. That's why almost all include opportunities for internships, part-time work experience and international exchange.
And the opportunities go beyond our London campuses. We also run regular sessions for work-based learning students in Cyprus, including those registered on the masters and doctorate in Professional Studies courses.

Suva is not the place to go for luxury hotels - there are other places for that. There is in fact a shortage of half decent places in the city, a shortage that benefits the Holiday Inn. In my recent stay, which cost US$180 / night, I had a half decent room, but nothing great. A view of a construction site. Overpriced wifi - $28 / day, and if you wanted high speed, ie. functional internet, they surprise you with a $8 / day surcharge. I didn't, and the Internet hardly worked. A good location downtown and on the sea. But the facilities are a bit tired - and you are paying top dollar. Other options - for half the price I could have stayed at the Best Western - but it was a real dump, and not a good location. The other options were full - so Holiday Inn was it. Service was fine, food was ok but overpriced as well. So - my recommendation is that unless you have to, stay somewhere other than in Suva. If you have to, the Holiday Inn will do, but I hope it is on an expense account. Otherwise you will feel you are being ripped off.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Welcome. Enjoy fine harbour views and a warm Fijian welcome at Holiday Inn Suva, just steps from the city's key sights. Leave the city bustle behind in the cool, open-plan hotel Lobby at Holiday Inn Suva. You'll relax as you stroll through palm-fringed gardens and cool off in the sparkling freshwater pool. Nausori Airport is 22km away and we have ample complimentary parking. All of our bright, modern Guest rooms have high-speed Internet and a balcony. Holiday Inn Suva is well-located for business, within 5 minutes' walk of major banks, embassies and the EU headquarters. Our 3 flexible meeting rooms, with wireless Internet and harbour views, provide a unique backdrop for events and you can catch up in the 24-hour Business Centre. Work out in our glass-fronted Fitness Centre, facing Victoria Parade and historic Government buildings. Vikatoria's restaurant is a laid-back setting for fresh fish while waterfront Bati ni Wai serves pizza al fresco. Enjoy an icy-cold beer with big-screen sport in Tapa Lounge Bar, or listen to live music and enjoy Suva's sunsets from the pool deck. ... more less
- Reservation Options:
- TripAdvisor is proud to partner with Expedia, Hotels.com, Booking.com, Priceline, Travelocity, IHG, Cancelon, TripOnline SA, Hotwire, Agoda and HotelQuickly so you can book your Holiday Inn Suva reservations with confidence.

I have finally taken my Exchange 2007 server live - in a rush - as my Exchange 2003 server was giving signs of dropping dead ...
Emails are working, Webmail (owa) is working and Autodiscover is "mostly" working. However, OOF (out of office), free busy and Entourage connections via the internet do not work.
I believe these are all related to the WebDav component, but I'm having a hard time finding information on configuring the WebDav components. I've tried to remove the Anonymous authentication from the EWS virtual directory, but it resets back to Anonymous after an iisreset ...
And the boss (who uses a Mac at home, one of only two Macs in the company) is getting impatient.
Anyone have any resources or suggestions on getting these last (I sure hope) capabilities running live?
Thanks to all for the help.

Have you made sure your autodiscover is set up to be resolved externally? You said autodiscover is "mostly" working. what do you mean by this?
Feb 22, 2010 at 3:21 UTC
Sorry for the delay, I was out of town.
Autodiscover works for my system, and today finally I was able to get a reverse PTR set up by my ISP (only took 2 months of nagging).
So, testexchangeconnectivity shows it succeeds using the autodiscover test, but fails with a 403 (unauthorized) I think it says for the test that simulates the Entourage connection.
I did just discover today that the Microsoft updates do not work with Exchange, so I'm way back on Rollup 2 (no service packs), so I suspect I need to do some serious upgrading, but am terrified it might make my system even less stable.
Does anyone have any "how to's" for setting up WebDav/Entourage?
Thanks for the response.
Feb 22, 2010 at 3:33 UTC
No how tos off the top of my head. Typically if your OWA is set up correctly then entourage will follow. Can you access with imail? If you are running snow leopard then that will help us rule out the client.
Feb 22, 2010 at 3:39 UTC
imail on the LAN yes, off no.
Safari 3 works with the webmail (https://mail3.aka-group.com/owa).%C2%A0; No idea what Snow Leopard is (Mac OS is 10.4)
I'm so NOT a mac person, but now have 3 machines dropped on me as well as iPhones starting.... ahhhh.
Thanks for your help AND patience. It's greatly appreciated.
Feb 22, 2010 at 3:44 UTC
No problem, Macs are actually very nice and the users are usually more tech saavy than most so they are a big help as well.
Snow Leopard is 10.6, definately worth the upgrade, Essentailly you dont need entourage and all those pains go away.
I would get patched up, dont do rollup 9 for now, that breaks OWA in many instances. But get up to date and try again.
Once OWA is working great internally and externally that is all that is needed to connect with iMail so you will be done. I would research that 403 error a bit more. That sounds like a permission issue...

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Red Wings Asst. GM Keeps Busy
by Paul on 04/05/06 at 09:59 AM ET
Comments (0)
Assistant general manager Jim Nill criss-crossed Europe recently checking out prospects for the upcoming draft, players who'll be draft-eligible in a few seasons and some of the Wings' own prospects. He takes two or three long trips to Europe every year to scout players.... At some tournaments, he'll watch three games in a single day. He takes notes, then enters his observations into a log that other Wings scouts use to record their thoughts on the same player. The fun part of such trips, Nill said, is watching the next big players while they're still a small blip on the radar. For example, Nill first saw Washington Capitals forward Alexander Ovechkin, the favorite to win NHL rookie of the year, play as a 14-year-old.read on...FYI, Jim Nill may be on the last leg with the Wings, his name has been brought up for a few GM jobs that may become open after the season...

"It's been amazing. It's been a mix of everything; chaos, tonnes and tonnes of hard work and emotions. It was loads and loads of fun," said Ileana. The film, directed by Anurag Basu, and co-produced by Ronnie Screwvala and Siddharth Roy Kapur of UTV Motion Pictures, also features Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra.
Ileana thanks the team for being by her side, and hopes to reunite with them in future. "Honestly, he (Anurag Basu) is one of the best directors to work with. I cannot thank him enough. I cannot thank Ronnie and Sid enough as well. It's been lovely working with them and I hope I get the chance to work with them again," she said.

I am trying out a new recipe and it says sifted cake flour. The cake flour I have has already been sifted and I thought all cake flours were pre-sifted. Does the recipe want me to sift this flour again before measure? I just want to make sure I get the right amount. But why would you have to sift cake flour a second time. I have never sifted my cake flours before... how do you do it?
all powders compact in transit (vibration) and sitting on the shelf (gravity)
so sifting aerates them -- loosens them up so you get better texture.
easiest way -- large wire mesh strainer -- as IndyDebi says "shake and bake"

Posted on 09/07/2012 6:39:33 AM PDT by lbryce
Bill Clintons speech at the Democratic National Convention was a remarkable combination of pretty serious wonkishness has there ever been a convention speech with that much policy detail? and memorable zingers. Perhaps the best of those zingers was his sarcastic summary of the Republican case for denying President Obama re-election: We left him a total mess. He hasnt cleaned it up fast enough. So fire him and put us back in.
Great line. But is the mess really getting cleaned up?
The answer, I would argue, is yes. The next four years are likely to be much better than the last four years unless misguided policies create another mess.
In saying this, Im not making excuses for the past. Job growth has been much slower and unemployment much higher than it should have been, even given the mess Mr. Obama inherited. More on that later. But, first, lets look at what has been accomplished.
On Inauguration Day 2009, the U.S. economy faced three main problems. First, and most pressing, there was a crisis in the financial system, with many of the crucial channels of credit frozen; we were, in effect, suffering the 21st-century version of the bank runs that brought on the Great Depression. Second, the economy was taking a major hit from the collapse of a gigantic housing bubble. Third, consumer spending was being held down by high levels of household debt, much of which had been run up during the Bush-era bubble.
always led by a housing boom and given the excess home construction that took place during the bubble, that just wasnt going to happen. Meanwhile, households were trying (or being forced by creditors) to pay down debt, which meant depressed demand. So the economys free fall ended, but recovery remained sluggish.
(Excerpt) Read more at nytimes.com ...
Spoken like a true award winning economist/ Obama apologit.
Krugman and Obama both won Nobel Prizes for the same thing: BEING WRONG ALL OF THE TIME.
Nobody will remember Clinton's speech in a week, let alone 1 year. The transcript itself is a good insomnia home remedy. More likely to hear further on Clint Eastwood and chairs than any bit of trivial rambling errata from the other old guy at the conventions, vouched in the course of a pointless self-regarding oration.
What color is the sky on Planet Krugman? He's not looking at the same reality I am.
Krugman is the problem. Three generations of deficit spending, uncontrolled borrowing, unfunded entitlements, non sustainable debt and governmental restraints on productive capitalism has led to economic catastrophe. Krugman and his liberal political acolytes have bought us misery. His ilk, Bernacke, and the rest of the so called economic gurus have worsened the situation. Their financial gimmickry is meant to maintain the non productive consumption and the faux lifestyles. They are merely squandering more capital. Krugman is a dangerous schizoid with undue influence. Bernacke will be judged by historians as the worst public official ever to be appointed to high office.
Krugman is a unethical economist who purposely lies about the underlying stats to support his always wrong conclusions.I think he may have slept through Economics 101. Ever notice the guy never looks anyone in the eye when he is lying which is pretty much always
The first thing needed to clean up the economy is to get rid of economic suicide bombers like Krugman.
Trouble is, the guy saying this [Clinton] is the one most responsible for the mess. It was his administration that blew Carter's CRA up into monstrous proportions and led to the catastrophic overleveraging of Fannie and Freddie.
Sure, you're not. Suuuuuuuuuuuuure.
Hmm. Let us carefully examine a possible example of "misguided policies".
Paul Krugman Calls for Space Aliens to Attack Earth
PAUL KRUGMAN, NEW YORK TIMES: Think about World War II, right? That was actually negative social product spending, and yet it brought us out.
I mean, probably because you want to put these things together, if we say, "Look, we could use some inflation." Ken and I are both saying that, which is, of course, anathema to a lot of people in Washington but is, in fact, what fhe basic logic says.
It's very hard to get inflation in a depressed economy. But if you had a program of government spending plus an expansionary policy by the Fed, you could get that. So, if you think about using all of these things together, you could accomplish, you know, a great deal.
If we discovered that, you know, space aliens were planning to attack and we needed a massive buildup to counter the space alien threat and really inflation and budget deficits took secondary place to that, this slump would be over in 18 months. And then if we discovered, oops, we made a mistake, there aren't any aliens, we'd be better
ROGOFF: And we need Orson Welles, is what you're saying.
KRUGMAN: No, there was a "Twilight Zone" episode like this in which scientists fake an alien threat in order to achieve world peace. Well, this time, we don't need it, we need it in order to get some fiscal stimulus.
Yes, massive Keynesian spending based on a lie would be one of those massive mistakes... kind of like the entire Obama budget.
:PAUL KRUGMAN, NEW YORK TIMES: Think about World War II, right? That was actually negative social product spending, and yet it brought us out."
Only a complete moron could claim that U.S. military expenditures during World War II, and their decisive role in the defeat of Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan, had negative social value.
Literary fellatio
Krugman.....he's really smart....didn't he win Best of Show in a cat show in Peoria?
But then, Krugman was always full of...sheep dip.
So is he now admitting that Roosevelt and his social policies did not get us out of the Great Depression...rather, war did?
If Paul Krugman knows ANYTHING about Economics 101,then I'm the GREATEST BRAIN SURGEON in THE WORLD!What's goint toget"MUCH BETTER IN THE NEXT 4-YEARS"?THE MESS???????????
Krugman joins the Choom Gang.
take another chug, Krug.

Belthangady church awaits body of Archibishop Ambrose Madtha
Fr James D'Souza of the Holy Redeemer Church said Madtha's body was expected to reach Belthangady and all were waiting for it.
He recalled visit of Madtha in May this year to the church for its inauguration. "Madtha, the Papal envoy of the Ivory Coast, will long be remembered for donating a Rs 15 lakh bell to the church, which he imported from Italy", D'Souza said
He recalled the civic reception given to Madtha in 2008 and the mastery the Archibishop had over 17 languages.
Madtha, who completed his school education in Belthangady, studied at St. Aloysius High School and obtained his masters degree in Economics from Nagur university.
He became the father of the church in 1982 and in 1990 the Papal envoy. He had worked in Ghana, Africa, Argentina, El Salvador, Albania, South America and Taiwan.
D'Souza described Madtha as a man who loved simplicity in life and well informed.
Madtha (57) was killed when his car collided with another vehicle on December 8 while he was returning from North-Eastern town of Odienne.

Last week, as part of the Spammer-Anti-Spammer wars – An attack on Spamhaus was created using a DNS amplification attack on highly rated DNS servers, the attack used Botnets to send an initial reflection request to the DNS Servers, which then generated the actual traffic. Today, although we are not sure if the same vector of attack was used again, the attack was able to draw enough web traffic to Spamhaus to reach a reported peak of 300Gbps of DDoS – a respectable number indeed. It is clear that proper DNS Server monitoring and configuration should have deflected the attack at an early stage. The DNS Attack vector showed again the effectiveness of using servers as initial attack vectors rather than a user-based botnet.

I feel like a whole bag o'ass today. I caught my nephews cold as he just loves to swap spit with me, in a loving manner. Damn, one side of my head keeps tearing up, shutting down one eye. I cough and sneeze so hard that I have to cross my legs so I won't piss myself. Hatin' life!
My radio station, out of Connecticut, 99.1 PLR, is talking about a quote by Cheryl Crow, stating that to help in the worlds problem with rubbish/trash/garbage/sewage and water, she thinks we should confine ourselves to using one piece of toilet paper each. One piece! That is unless you are doing the dirty deed and then you use three. Crow can do this and save the whales, I'm using half the roll, a t-shirt, catalog, bathroom carpet, whatever it takes.
Here's my big question of the day;
I don't know about you but I can be easily entertained. I found a site and the front page is all logo's for major companies. It gives you the history of the company, their start and so on. Click here.

At JotForm, we want to make sure that you're getting the online form builder help that you need. Our friendly customer support team is available 24/7.
We believe that if one user has a question, there could be more users who may have the same question. This is why many of our support forum threads are public and available to be searched and viewed. If you'd like help immediately, feel free to search for a similar question, or submit your question or concern.
Add notes to submissions without having to actually edit the submission.Asked by stretchandstaple on December 03, 2014 at 07:13 PM
We need the ability to insert notes about submissions like in excel, without having to go into the submission. We can't make the edits in the submission because we have widgets in the form and when you click edit submission jotform can't remember the users selections on all of the different widgets, and since our form is complex we can't remember every choice that a user made on every widget selection.
I have attached a file that shows what it could look like on the jotform submission page. When the note is made the little box could turn red like when you click on the flag icon.
JotForm Support
Unfortunately, we don't have this feature to our form builder. A workaround would be to add a field or hidden field and use it as your note area then edit the submissions to add one.
Another workaround would be to integrate your form to Google Spreadsheet and put notes there after you receive the submission. You can put the notes to a new sheet as we don't recommend doing modification to the current sheet of the integration.
Lastly, the widget is optimized to remember selections when editing submissions. I think we'll need to report it into a separate thread.
I agree. We really need to be able to add notes to our submissions.

Could office work become one of our most dangerous jobs?
With sitting being revealed as the new smoking millions of Australians in office jobs may have the most dangerous job in the country according to Shane Bilsborough, former 'Go For Your Life' health campaign ambassador and co-founder of Stepathlon.
"The body of evidence is now overwhelming. Today's sedentary office environment has a more far-reaching negative health impact than even the direst reports of just a few years ago", says Bilsborough.
"Sitting for six hours a day at work, as 77% of Australian office workers do, has a direct correlation with long-term disease, reduced productivity and absenteeism."
"In the US, some commentators are even predicting that 'excessive sitting' could be the basis for future workplace litigation. We know from our own research that participation in corporate wellness programs has a direct correlation with a reduction in risk factors for long-term disease and increased worker productivity. The key is to make these programs more accessible to more businesses and make participation easier."
Stepathlon, now in its third year globally, aims to reduce the cost to business of employee health programs and maximise participation rates through increased engagement. Stepathletes (Stepathlon participants) aim to walk a minimum of 10,000 steps per day for 100 days.
Last year almost 31,000 Stepathletes from 210 companies and 34 countries spent 2 hours and 24 minutes less sitting down per day.
"Despite the well-known health benefits, with the tightening of global markets over the last few years, corporate wellness programs have been cut back by many companies", says Bilsborough.
"At the same time, these companies have been investing in technology to reduce operating costs. By doing the same thing, Stepathlon has been able develop a 10,000 step a day program at a price 30% lower than competitive products.
"We've also developed new online and mobile platforms for Stepathlon that are more engaging, interactive and intuitive, and as well as the 100-day virtual race, we've provided participants with a 12-month wellness program that covers mental health, nutrition, chronic disease management, programs for getting active with your family, challenging yourself and a chance to take a look at your own health status."
In a 2013 survey Stepathletes reported a significant rise in energy and fitness levels, reduction in stress and body weight, and improved sleeping patterns.
The survey also found that 28% of Stepathletes took less sick leave, 34% reported increased productivity, and 34% experienced increased engagement at their place of work.
The health benefits accruing to individuals included 41% of Stepathletes reporting increased energy levels, 40% increasing their fitness level, 47% losing weight, 39% improving their quality of sleep and 34% experiencing lower stress levels.
"With the reduced operating budgets many Australian companies are facing the cost of our program, at just over 60 cents a day per participant, is a practical and low cost investment when you consider the return in terms of employee health, reduced absenteeism, increased productivity and better employee engagement," says Bilsborough.
You can find out more about Stepathlon or register for the 2014 event at www.stepathlon.com. Stepathlon takes place from 3 September to 11 December 2014 across the globe.

Verticillium wilt, caused by the soil-borne fungus Verticillium longisporum, leads to economic losses in cauliflower production in Belgium. Development of sustainable control measures of the disease is necessary. Previous studies in our laboratory have shown that incorporation of ryegrass can reduce the viability of V.longisporum microsclerotia in soil. However, field experiments are lacking in Belgian conditions. To gain knowledge about the population dynamics of V.longisporum and its relationship with Verticillium wilt, experiments were conducted from 2006 to 2010 in two cauliflower fields (Oppuurs and Ardooie) with history of Verticillium wilt. Three main crop systems (fallow, cauliflower and cauliflower followed by removal of debris) and two cover crop systems (no cover crop and ryegrass) were tested. The results of this study showed that (i) crop rotation intensity of cauliflower cultivation does not affect the inoculum density of microsclerotia forming Verticillium species in soil, (ii) amendment of lignin-rich ryegrass may reduce the soil inoculum, and (iii) seasonal fluctuations of inoculum densities occur but any soil inoculum variation above a level of one microsclerotium per gram of soil does not affect disease levels. Furthermore, we found that Verticillium wilt of cauliflower in Ardooie was reduced in soil containing Verticillium tricorpus-like organisms. The Verticillium isolate Vt305 obtained from the cauliflower field in Ardooie was morphologically similar to V.tricorpus, but its rDNA ITS region showed 100% identity with the non-pathogenic species Verticillium isaacii, recently described in literature. © 2013 Elsevier Ltd.

In European countries, the cultivation of fertigated crops experience scarcity of water, and the intensity of cultivation poses significant risks to water quality. The main objective of the FERTINNOWA thematic network is to create a meta-knowledge database on innovative technologies and practices for fertigation of horticultural crops. FERTINNOWA will also build a knowledge exchange platform to evaluate existing and novel technologies (innovation potential, synergies, gaps, barriers) for fertigated crops and ensure wide dissemination to all stakeholders involved of the most promising technologies and best practices. A multi-actor integrated approach will be used through the FERTINNOWA platform which will involve various stakeholders (researchers, growers, policy-makers, industry, environmental groups etc.) at several levels including the socio-economic and regulatory level (national and European) with a special focus on the EU Water Framework Directive and Nitrate Directive. Information will be gathered at national level to feed a European benchmark study that will evaluate and compare existing technologies used at various horticulture sectors, including vegetables, fruit and ornamentals in different climate zones. All tools, databases and other resources generated will be shared within the consortium and the stakeholders group and will be made available to the broader scientific community, policy-makers, the industry and the public at large. FERTINNOWA will help the growers to implement innovative technologies in order to optimize water and nutrient use efficiency thus reducing the environmental impact.

Plant water status plays a major role in glasshouse cultivation of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). New climate control technologies alter the glasshouse climate and make it less dependent on solar radiation. However, irrigation strategies are still often based on solar radiation sums. In order to maintain a good plant water status, it is interesting to use plant-based methods such as monitoring sap flow (F) or stem diameter variations (SDV). Though SDV give important information about plant water status, an unambiguous interpretation might be difficult because other factors such as stem age, fruit load and sugar content of the stem also affect SDV. In this study, an analysis of the effect of stem age on the response of SDV to water status was performed by calibration of a mechanistic flow and storage model. This allowed us to determine how parameter values changed across the growing season. Tissue extensibility decreased over the growing season resulting in a lower growth rate potential, whereas daily cycles of shrinking and swelling of the stem became more pronounced towards the end of the growing season. Parameters were then adapted to time-dependent variables and implemented in the model, allowing long term simulation and interpretation of SDV. Sensitivity analysis showed that model predictions were very sensitive to initial sucrose content of the phloem tissue and the parameters related to plastic growth.

Acta Horticulturae | Year: 2014
The importance of plant water status for a good production and quality of tomato fruits (Solanum lycopersicum L.) has been emphasized by many authors. Currently, different new energy-saving technologies and growing strategies are under investigation to cope with the increasing fossil fuel prices. However, these technologies and growing strategies typically alter the greenhouse climate, thereby affecting the plants' response. Hence, the question arises how to adapt the microclimate to reduce the energy consumption of greenhouse tomato cultivation without compromising fruit yield or quality. Nowadays, the use of plant-based methods to steer the climate is of high interest and it was demonstrated that monitoring of stem diameter variations and fruit growth provides crucial information on both the plant water and carbon status. However, interpretation of these data is not straightforward and, hence, mechanistic modelling is necessary for an unambiguous interpretation of the dynamic plant response. During a 4-year research period, we investigated the response of different plant processes of tomato to dynamic microclimatic greenhouse conditions. The final aim was to develop a decision support system that helps growers to find an optimal balance between energy consumption, plant response and fruit yield. To this end, an integrated plant model, including stem, leaves, roots and fruits, was developed in which the various plant processes are mechanistically described. The plant model was calibrated and extensively validated on datasets collected throughout the different growing seasons in different research facilities in Flanders. This plant model was finally integrated into an existing greenhouse climate model and validated with data from the greenhouse climate and energy consumption. After validation, this integrated model was used to run scenarios on growing strategies and their impact on energy consumption, plant photosynthesis and fruit growth.

In modern greenhouses there is a high demand to automate labour. The availability of a skilled workforce that accepts repetitive tasks in harsh greenhouse climate conditions is decreasing rapidly. The resulting increase in labour costs and reduced capacity puts major pressure on the competitiveness of the European greenhouse sector. Present robotization of this labour has entered an high level of technological readiness. However, a gap remains which halts the transition from science to economic and societal impact; the so called Technological Innovation Gap. In the EU-FP7-project CROPS extensive research has been performed on agricultural robotics. One of the applications was a sweet pepper harvesting robot. It was shown that such a robot is economically and technically viable. The proven hardware and software modules (TRL:6) developed in CROPS will be used as the groundwork. The successful CROPS software modules based on the Robotic-Operating-System (ROS) will be maintained and expanded in SWEEPER. Also the gripper end-effector will be retained. This patent pending module is able to grasp the sweet pepper without the need of an accurate measurement of the position and orientation of the fruit. From the CROPS project, also gained knowledge will directly be put to benefit. In several experiments, it turned out that different growers use different cropping systems ranging in crop density. In SWEEPER, the cropping system itself will be optimized to facilitate robotic harvesting. In CROPS it was concluded that instead of a 9DOF, a 4DOF robot arm is sufficient , greatly reducing costs. To improve the level of robotic cognitive abilities, plant models will be applied to approximate location of sweet peppers. This model-based vision will increase and speed up fruit detection. Based on the insights of CROPS, sensors will be placed onto the gripper only. Also a LightField sensor will be introduced which is able to record both colour and 3D information simultaneously.

Jim, the cabinets look pretty good. Bummer about the vehicle being in there though. I tried that for quite a while and finally just gave up and let my truck sit outside. It did give me more room to add tools though. And, forget about asking my wife to let me use HER garage. I would be out in the weather before her vehicle would be.
With just one picture it is hard to see what your shop is really like. Please feel free to post more pictures if you would like to. There are several of us, like myself, on board here who are admitted shop addicts that enjoy touring other shops.

On the surface, it would appear that Calvin Harris has had a rough year. He got into a car accident, parted ways with superstar girlfriend Taylor Swift and saw a $3 million dip in annual income. But it would take much more to knock Harris from his throne: he still pulled in $63 million, making him the highest-paid DJ in the world. Forbes Reports
For the fourth consecutive year, Harris is the earnings champ of EDM, a genre defined by a swirl of synthesizers, towering vocals and psychedelic light shows. The Scottish DJ, who gets paid more than $400,000 per Vegas gig, has long had his eye on the top spot. "I want to be the number one songwriter-producer guy of all time," he told FORBES several years ago.
Next up on the list are two other Europeans. Dutch-born Tiësto earned $38 million, playing more than 100 gigs in the past 12 months on top of an estimated seven-figure deal with 7-UP. French DJ David Guetta scored the theme song for the Euro 2016 soccer tournament–and $28 million on the year, thanks mostly to his steady gig at Wynn's Vegas properties.
EDM's broader fortunes, however, may not be as bright as those of the upper echelon of Electronic Cash Kings. The ten top earners collectively pulled in $270.5 million this year (down 1% from a year ago) as they crisscrossed the globe spinning beats and shilling for such products as 7-Up and Tag Heuer. It's the first year since FORBES began tracking DJ pay in 2012 that the number has gone down year over year.
The bubble has already burst in America," says Steve Aoki (No. 5, $23.5 million), who played 198 times in the past year despite vocal cord surgery. "You can see it in Vegas' DJ landscape."
Some of the most successful DJs on the list made much of their money on genres other than EDM. Skrillex (No. 7, $20 million), served as the driving force behind Justin Bieber's comeback, producing five tracks on Bieber's latest album, Purpose. Others are leaving entirely. Avicii (No. 12, $14.5 million) is set to retire from performing later this summer.
Our estimates include earnings from live shows, merch, endorsements, recorded music and outside business ventures. Figures are pretax income calculated from June 2015 to June 2016, with information from Nielsen NLSN +0.00%, Songkick, Bandsintown, Pollstar, RIAA, promoters, managers and many of the DJs themselves.
And there are still bright spots, to be sure. Newcomers Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike (No. 10, $15.5 million) scored multiple six-figure festival paydays, debuting in between Electronic Cash Kings veterans Afrojack (No. 11, $15 million) and Martin Garrix (No. 9, $16 million).
How accurate are our numbers? Publicly and privately, some DJs and their teams tell us they're spot on; others say they're too high or too low. But everybody's got a different motivation.
"On my side, they're always a bit under," says Kaskade (No. 8, $19 million). "Which I don't mind and that's fine, that's cool. I've always been a sneak attack guy anyway."

Quentin Richardson Has Been Passed Around More Times Than Paris HiltonAugust 14, 2009
Quentin Richardson has been traded 4 times this offseason. In about 7 weeks. He was a Knick, and got traded to the Grizzlies. Then he got dealt to the Clippers. Next, the Timberwolves acquired him. Now, he's just been traded to the Heat. This has got to be some kind of a record. How funny is this?! Has any single player been at the center of more salary dumps? He's been passed around more times than Paris Hilton. Some of the guys he was traded for were Darko Milicic, Zach Randolph, Sebastian Telfair, Mark Madsen, Craig Smith, and Mark Blount. Quality Guys! Quentin, what happened to you? Do you have some kind of contagious disease? Colon problems like Dajuan Wagner? Missing ACL's like Dejuan Blair? Brandy can't be happy with all this relocation, Quentin. Let's just rename the game "Hot Potato" to "Q-Rich".
Maybe Richardson needs a name change. Or maybe he just needs to end his obsession with the 3 point line. Jim Jackson, Heads up! Tony Massenburg, Look Alive! Damon Jones, Wake up! All of your "most teams played for" records are in serious jeopardy with Quentin still employed by the NBA. Come on, Quentin, you can do it, play for all 30 teams! Only 23 to go! You've got plenty of good years left in the tank! I can envision him sticking around the NBA for a long time, signing one year contract after one year contract just to rack up more money, and add to that already impressive resume of 7 teams. In all seriousness, I think if Q-Rich had won a title with the Suns, he would be looked at differently. People would view him as a great role player on a title team, and a winner. Instead, he's just seen as a selfish gunner, evidenced by the fact that nobody actually views him as an asset to their team, but more of an expiring contract. A round of applause, everyone, for Quentin Richardson: providing NBA fans more offseason entertainment than we could've ever hoped for! [Sports news you can drink a beer to - Bareknucks.com]

S&W Shield lots of FTF
so a few weeks ago i got a new Shield in .40 and finally got out to the range today. Well, it shot great, when it shot. First loaded it with WWB and the first mag shot fine 6rds. Next mag i had loaded 6rds Winchester PDX1, 2nd shot failure to feed. and slide locked back, manually released the slide forward round fired and then the from then on every other round was a FTF. the Primer was struck it just did not fire and it didn't matter what kind of ammo i used...federal fmj, wwb, winchester ranger, winchester pdx1. for an example 2 would shot then the next one would be a dud, next one would shot the the next would be a dud...the primer does look like it was struck off center. Actually with each mag i would say that I had 1 or 2 malfunctions a dozen or so in total. What do you guys think is up?
Call S&W,they'll probably be able to help.
Many primers strick off center some . Not a reason to worry often. Take the fireing pin out if you have not and clean the everwhere. Got to learn any how and most guys don't completely clean when new and that is a great place of trash to hide. Then try to shoot 100 to 200 rounds of fed or magtech fmj ammo first. I have allways found cheap magtech to allways go bang and I allways avoid WWB ammo at all cost. After a real complete cleaning and 200 rounds fired trouble free then see what HP ammo you and your pistol prefer. But after a complete cleaning and one other type of fmj if you still have problems then call s&w.
maybe the gun's dry, clean and oil her up and see if you have the same issue. If so, give S&W a ring.
Thanks for the comments. The overall consensus I got from many people was to put about 200 rounds through it. So, thats what I did. Gun is Working fine now. However now I have a new problem. The 6 round mag is fine, it is the 7 round mag i am having a problem with. Every time i fire the mag drops out of the mag well. Not to the floor but only about a half inch. Freaking pain in the ass.
If the problems is with one mag ,set it aside. Use only your 6 round mag for now. Pick a different ammo line of only 124gr fmj ammo and see if it shoots with no issues for a couple hundred rounds. Then find a HP that runs well . Then try the 7 rounder again. Look for the reason and think about the problem whys its not locking in . If it still casues problems with the ammo you know works Call s&w and talk to the CS. Maybe they will send you a new mag free or atleast they will tell you what they want to do. If you have to send your pistol back they well send you a shipping label for your pistol to be sent with or picked up at your door and returned to your door. All small pistols can give some issues, suck it up and think thru the problems. Problems tend to be ammo related first, shoot next as far as skill level an cleaning and lubeing then the firearm.

Telltale Games proved that their comic book adaptation of The Walking Dead wasn't a fluke when they launched their first episode of their next graphic novel-turned-adventure game, The Wolf Among Us. But fans have been forced to wait months to see how the second chapter of Bigby Wolf's investigation would play out – a delay the developer claims won't be happening again.
Now the second episode of the series, 'Smoke & Mirrors' has finally arrived, taking the series' already mature tone and content into an even darker corner of the "Fables" universe. Does the turn to the dark side keep the story building, or steal attention away from the core mystery?
The debut episode of The Wolf Among Us proved that Telltale wasn't letting the fantasy setting or characters of the "Fables" comic series distract from the core narrative; in short, a hard-boiled detective story starring the Big Bad Wolf (read our review). The trailer for 'Smoke & Mirrors' promised that the story would be getting more mature, more graphic, and potentially even more shocking.
Make no mistake: 'Smoke & Mirrors' most certainly takes the series into a far more adult and oppressive genre; where the first episode hinted at what scum might be slithering underneath the stones on which Fabletown was built, the second turns them over, forcing the community's authorities – and Bigby in particular – to see what they've allowed to fester. The added layer of fantasy and fairy tale provides a twisted dimension to the already troubling subject matter, but it isn't really necessary.
With a detective story at its heart, large portions of 'Smoke & Mirrors' could take place with the "Fables" fiction removed entirely, with any detective, any deceased young woman as the catalyst for his investigation. The episode's success, as was the case in the prior installment, is its restraint. There are a few action sequences present, but the bulk of the interrogations and evidence-gathering feels as calmly-paced and nuanced as the very best of the classic 'detective story' of film.
It would and should be enough of a compliment to the team at Telltale to say that at its best, The Wolf Among Us continues to share its DNA with the likes of Chinatown; also managing to avoid many of the missteps of the similarly-motivated L.A. Noire. Bits of evidence are uncovered quietly and contemplatively, with the developers refusing to spell out the finer details of Bigby's reasoning. In other words: characters will connect the dots ahead of the dialogue prompts, just as Bigby has, urging players to do the same.
However, just as the slow-burn, less-is-more mentality of the detective story The Wolf Among Us emulates isn't for everyone, neither will this game satisfy every player. The Walking Dead's premise offered an overwhelming sense of tension and immediacy, throwing threat after threat at the player and asking them to survive while compromising as much or little as possible. In 'Smoke & Mirrors,' the studio is leaving no doubt as to just how different their goals truly are for this series.
By asking players not to react to an outside threat, but take the lead in an investigation that has already hit close to home, there's a good chance many Walking Dead fans will decide this series isn't for them. Especially since the tone, pacing, and progress of the story reflects the fact that Bigby's investigation is just kicking off. The less said about the plot the better, but with a pair of murders, the real legwork and clue-gathering take center stage. Colorful characters help keep the investigation engaging, but there's no way to overlook the fact that the series is building towards its most gripping act.
Even so, for those who hunger for a well-spun detective tale, and are willing to take note of the subtle connections and leading statements, there are simply few games like this. The closing moments of the episode are nearly as shocking as its predecessor (although some will be able to see it coming), but the cliffhanger ending does call into question just how much the future installments will be concerned with surviving the fallout of the mystery, as opposed to solving it.
Unfortunately, the impression was given early on that one of the main elements of choice and consequence in The Wolf Among Us wouldn't necessarily be the player's ability to solve a mystery, but to decide how much of Bigby's violent side they would let out. In episode one, that choice was given in an extremely violent (read: action-heavy) context, but in 'Smoke & Mirrors' the ability to guide Bigby's morality is offered more frequently, but in much subtler ways. After all, Bigby has reason to become a bit more aggressive in his interrogations now that the case has become personal.
But if the lopsided results shown at the end of the episode are an indication, the choices are far less ambiguous than those offered in The Walking Dead, as a majority of players seemed to exercise similar control. Either that, or Telltale's fans have developed a knack for seeing the most promising course forward.
Telltale has kept up its quality of writing, atmosphere and mystery, beginning to tie together story threads while heightening anticipation even further. However, there's no question that the relatively slower, methodical pace of this episode will leave less of an impact on some players. Those who favor a slow burn will still welcome the experience, but if Telltale hadn't made audiences wait four months to play this episode, they would have had a much easier time keeping both groups happy.
The Wolf Among Us: Episode Two, titled "Smoke & Mirrors," is available now for PC, and Mac,, Xbox 360 and PS3 on February 5, and iOS devices soon. The episode costs $4.99, with the full season order costing just $19.99.

Thanks so much!
I have the 3 diamond cutter from Jennifer Dontz...one of the best tools I own. Personally, I press in until it almost cuts. Then, you go over each line with a stiching wheel like this: http://kiwicakes.co.nz/kiwi/images/PME%20cutting%20wheel.jpg I don't put anymore BC than normal when I make a quilted cake. Also, instead of the wheel, I use a long point gumpaste tool sometimes. Same thing, but none of the stich marks.
Hi Ashley!
My method is this: Normal layer of BC under a thin layer of my semi-homemade white chocolate fondant. You press the tool (3 diamond quilter) into the fondant (for a round cake, rock it once to the left and once to the right). You don't cut thru the fondant. Then go over the pattern with a stitch wheel. I like the larger toothed one myself. SO SO easy to do! The stitch wheel is what really puffs the whole design out.
See below:
Lol--there's the master's demo right there! Yes--rock it back and forth, I do that too, didn't think to explain it that way though.
On square cakes, no need to rock it because you are pressing on a flat surface.
Question... when you're doing an all over pattern like this, do you end up with a seam in the back where things don't match up?
Is there a way (maybe not with this pattern press, but at least with patterns that you have to do more freehand) to evenly space the pattern all the way around so you don't have a place that HAS to be the back?
- Leisel
Leisel -
This is what I do.... I start out in the back of the cake. As I get near the back I eye it up to see how many more impressions will fit on this cake. Then, I space them a bit further apart or squeeze them a bit closer together so I come out pretty darn good in the back.
I started on the front of the cake one time. Realized what I did....never again. Ouch!
Nope, not a good idea Jamie...... we live and learn huh....
Happy New Year everyone!
Thank you all for sharing your technique!
Thanks, Jennifer...
I'm a bit (HA!)of a perfectionist.
That doesn't just mean wanting to do a great job... it tends to mean setting the bar for good enough way beyond what it needs to be for other people to think you did a great job, generally into the absolutely impossible to actually accomplish range.
So if left to my own devices, nothing is ever good enough and I'm always seriously frustrated with my efforts. It helps to know what REALLY constitutes good enough.
- Leisel
Leisel -
We are always our own worst critic...but...they can be good because it only makes us strive to be better
Yep... improving your work = good.
But... shutting down and giving up because you cannot bend the laws of space and time to make the impossible happen = not so good.
From my own experience I would say true perfectionism is really a mental disorder... very like OCD. Most people just use the word to mean driven to excel, but that's not really the full extent of it.
Oh... here's a better explanation via Wikipedia:
Hamachek describes two types of perfectionism. Normal perfectionists "derive a very real sense of pleasure from the labours of a painstaking effort" while neurotic perfectionists are "unable to feel satisfaction because in their own eyes they never seem to do things [well] enough to warrant that feeling of satisfaction". Burns defines perfectionists as "people who strain compulsively and unremittingly toward impossible goals and who measure their own worth entirely in terms of productivity and accomplishment".[1]
I'm more along the lines of Hamachek's definition of neurotic perfectionist, or Burns definition of perfectionist.
And one of the symptoms or side effects of that type of perfectionism is procrastination or outright avoidance. I can't tell you how many times I've not done things (even things I really wanted to do, or things that would cost me good amounts of money by not doing them) because I couldn't work out exactly the right way to go about it in my head. It's stupid behavior, and yet I usually can't stop it, even when I recognize it.
LOL... and now that's probably WAY more info than anyone was interested in.
- Leisel
Yeah-I'm a perfectionist with my cakes. Wouldn't have it any other way.
Thank you all so much for the tips! I'll be sure to post pics of the cake.
Can't wait to see it Ashley!
i' d very much like to try this.
Any ideas where I can purchase this 3 diamond quilter online? And, I know someone said "the larger one", is there a specific size I should looke for?
Last question , if im going to try it on a mini cake, does that change the size of the quilter I should use?
Thanks so much to whomever takes a sec to answer me!!
PM me Jess, I can help.
I was wondering where I can buy the 3 diamond cutter? I am making my daughter's birthday cake this weekend and need one for my top tier!
Without looking it up myself.....just google Jennifer Dontaz Sugardelites. That's where I got mine. One of my favorite tools.
Dontz. Not Dontaz...sheesh.
Oh great.. I just found it online, I will have to see if they can ship it FAST for me! Lol, I always wait too long. I noticed the one on her site is just one diamond, where the others I have seen are 3 in a row. Is this easier to use do you think?
No, she has the one I'm talking about, it's a three diamond cutter. It'smade out of copper....PM her and ask her to link you straight to it. She's JenniferMI, a few posters back on this thread....just noticed that, duh! She has a link to her site.
Hi, I've never heard or seen a copper quilter.
I have the Diamond Patchwork Cutter which is plastic so is ever so slightly flexible, I find it makes it easier to position around the cake. Info is at http://www.patchworkcutters.co.uk/catalogue_details.asp?product_id=29&group=0 but I found mine at me local cake decorators supply store and it was fairly cheap.
Ok, so i just can't hold out any longer Im buying your diamon cutter Jennifer, that pink and pearl cake is seriously making me sick with envy i must use this quilting technique!! ive been trying to stop buying stuff so Im holding you completely responsible for me going off the beaten track. I loved the quilting on your blue and gold rose cake and now i just cant resist it anymore!!
LOL! OMG the pressure......
LOL! OMG the pressure......
just bought it!! so excited - also got a flowery lace mould, been wanting one for ages. really want to do a quilted lacey flower wedding cake with pearl boarders for my shop window when it opens - people wont have seen anything like it over here, just can't wait!
Thanks so much Cathy! If I can help you, don't hesitate to ask.
I want to make a quilted pattern cake....for this weekend. Unfortunately, I do not have the impression tool. Are there any tips for doing this free hand? Am I going to want to stab myself in the eye with an ice pick when I'm done?!
