Part 4 of our review!
Sorry that I did not posted yesterday.
Today, we will take a closer look to the multimedia capability of the Pro 5, including gaming performance, audio and a camera test.
Lets start with something easy. Parko, a simple 2D game.
As expected the Pro 5 is not stressed at all. Actually you can literally feel how underworked the Exynos 7420 is.
Similar has been noticed with Plague Inc. So I thought it was time to raise the bar and look for something more complex.
This is where Real Racing came into my mind. But unfortunately it did not have the wished effect either. The CPU seemed to be idle, even though the phone got slightly warm after playing for 10 minutes.
But what else would you expect from the worlds 2nd fastest smartphone?
So I thought it would be time to take a look at the speakers of the Pro 5.
As seen in Part 1 of my review the speakers are 4 simple holes.
However, these "4 simple" holes deliver an asthonishingly clear sound. Only the bass could be slightly better, but that would be moaning on a high level. Responsible for this result are the ES9018K2M DAC chip and OPA1612.
Additionally you can find extra HiFi setup possiblites in the settings.
Basically there is nothing to complain about from a performance perspective.
Lastly we will take a look at the Camera. Therefore I took a few sample shots, nothing to spectacular.
I took all the images in low light. Overall the results are satisfying, but nothing outstanding either. What I acknowledge positive is the fast shutter speed of the Pro 5, just like the various options to take pictures (manual mode).
The only thing which directly came to my attention though is the lack of a flash light for the front camera, which can be found at many Huawei devices for example.
It might be a discussable feature, but for a price of ca. 470€ (including taxes and shipping) I would call it "expectable".
Overall I am positively surprised by the Pro 5 and its performance, just like features. But there are also downsides, which I will present tomorrow in my final resume.

We've all been horrified by the catastrophic destruction caused by the recent bush fires, and we shudder to think of the desolation of those who have literally lost everything in these devastating blazes. Yet the heat still rolls on with the almost certain promise of more to come - and we're not even into February which can often be the hottest month! So it's not really surprising that just about everyone's been struggling: from our fantastic Fire Service people who are literally putting their lives on the line for us every day, to the mums and dads at home who face many more weeks of school holidays and housebound kids who can't even go outside to play! Most young families can find it hard to think of different ways to keep their kids cool and yet occupied at the same time and for most, the obvious answer is a trip to the pool or the beach - in fact, anything that involves water! But you don't always have to leave home to get wet! All of us can remember the simple pleasures of just running through the sprinkler in the backyard and screaming with delight. However, even such simple pleasures can come with hidden dangers, which if we are all aware of, can easily be avoided and everyone can "Keep their Cool"! Inflatable pools These are a joy for kids and an answer to prayers for fraught parents. You can buy them at department stores and even hardware stores, and you blow them up and you fill 'em up with water from the hose pipe! Simple eh? Well, yes and no. Yes they are simple to get up and running in a very short time: but they can also pose some hazards, other than the obvious risk of children being unattended around the water. There are a number of health hazards if the water isn't cared for properly. Most of these inflatable pools are for toddlers, and not all toddlers have the most pristine personal habits. In other words the pool water can become contaminated with faecal material which has the potential to infect other children who drink that water! Such contaminated water can cause Gastro-enteritis, ear and eye infections. So some simple hygiene hints: Kids with diarrhoea should not swim. Keep reminding the little ones to go to the toilet frequently: they're often having such a great time, they can often forget "to go". If you are taking a baby in the water who is not potty-trained, use a nappy specifically designed for swimming in. And change nappies well away from the pool area. Wash hands after using the bathroom or changing nappies. Make a rule for all children NOT TO DRINK THE WATER! Keep the swimming water clean by showering with soap before entering the pool - and shower off after swimming too. Empty the pool at the end of the day - even better: recycle it onto the flower beds and herb garden. But it's not just the inflatable pool that can pose problems. Even a hose pipe may be "dangerous". With the daytime temperatures being in the high 30's and the night time temperatures being in the low to mid 20's, the water left in a hosepipe can prove ideal breeding ground for organisms that can be lethal to humans. Amoebic meningitis is caused by contaminated water being squirted up the nose with potentially fatal results. So make sure that hosepipes are put safely away once they've been used, and let them run for a couple of minutes into the garden before the children start to play with it. Whilst we humans struggle with the unpleasant heat and seek the sanctuary of cool water, there are other creatures who might have the same idea as we do: particularly our reptilian friends! Frogs love water, and snakes like to eat frogs almost as much as they like to sip the cool water too! So just be aware that when you go to your backyard pool, check to see if there are any uninvited "guests". And if there are - be gentle with them because they're struggling with the heat too, and call the appropriate authorities. One other bothersome creature loves water too - and it also likes to keep us awake at night buzzing in our ears, or even worse, sucking our blood! And depending on where you live, not only do they suck your blood, they can also leave some very unwelcome organisms behind in your blood! I'm talking about Mozzies. Mosquitoes breed by laying eggs in standing water, so any pool, pond, or just a tray filled with water can be a potential breeding ground for these annoying creatures. So check your backyard, garden, verandah for any areas where water might remain and tip it out. Inflatable pools should be emptied each night and refilled in the morning for hygiene purposes, but there's nothing like a disturbed night's sleep due to a buzzing mozzy to help remind you to do that!

A slot machine (American), fruit machine (British), or poker machine (Australian) is a type of casino game. Traditional slot machines are coin-operated machines with three or more reels, which spin when a lever on the side of the machine is pulled. The machines include a currency detector that validates the coin or money inserted to play. (The slot machine is also known informally as a one-armed bandit because of its traditional appearance and its ability to leave the gamer penniless.) The machine pays off based on patterns of symbols visible on the front of the machine when it stops. Modern computer technology has resulted in many variations on the slot machine concept. Slot machines are the most popular gambling method in casinos and constitute about 70 percent of the average casino's income.[1] Thirty percent of the profits from gambling machines come from problem gamblers.[2]

Pests can become a nuisance in salt or freshwater aquariums, and it is usually an intrusive process to catch them (if you even can). Tom's Pest Trap lets you bait the trap with pellet or frozen foods and will help entice the pest(s) into the trap. Once the pest has entered, the multiple trap fingers will fall keeping the pest from getting back out for easy removal.

Final countdown to SwimBritain
There're only a few days left until the SwimBritain relay event at London Fields Lido and the LumieSwim team are starting to get nervous. Sunday 29th September is the big day and the four girls are fairly confident they can each swim 1000m... they're just not sure how long it will take. When asked how team member Charlie felt about the race ahead, she said, "Just a bit terrified!". With the recent change of weather, they're probably just thankful that the outdoor pool will be heated.
Comedian and star swimmer David Walliams launches SwimBritain at the London Fields Lido earlier this year.
When the team began training they couldn't manage even 500m so they've made excellent progress. And Olivia's realised that by not concentrating on counting the lengths, she actually completed more. Could this be a winning tip? Millie found this week the most difficult so far and struggled to fit more than one session but with Lauren back from holiday the team are hoping for a full turn-out for the remaining training sessions and a big boost in motivation.
Since it's the last blog before the event, this week's SwimBritain training tip is a double whammy with advice from elite swimmer, Matt Johnson and some wise words from his dedicated dad, Ian:
Good luck to everyone competing and don't forget to let us know how you did on Facebook or Twitter. Go Lumie!

I finished BOTH versions! Awesome games! Really fun and love avoiding the red freaks. Thanks so much for making these games: games like these don't come around so often :)
One weird thing i notice on the "repeat" screen: If you right click and commit suicide on it, it shows the static but goes on forever :/ I also did this on the CLNR version and it showed "What have you done" and fades out and shows it again.
HapPie, plz make a sequel, i love these games! :)
A breath of fresh air
I am happy to say that I really enjoyed this game. The game itself feels fresh and original, and the atmosphere really enhances the whole experience; the choice of music, combined with the scenery, gameplay, and objective, really justified the mood. A state of confusion, and eeriness ensures in this twisted world of yours. My complaints are, the obvious glitchy nature of the game at times. Another thing I disliked was playing as a red freak. This is in my opinion, I just didn't enjoy playing as one as much as I liked playing as the protagonist. The difficulty also felt forced, and pseudo-like. Despite all of that, this game is really fun and definitely worth playing.
I'd give you a ten, but...
If you know it's glitchy, try and fix it. I could not get past that level in the dark, because of all of the glitches. Got to the door and it wouldn't click on it. I must of played that level 20 or more times. It also starts you off at the level before it. Annoying. The idea and overall play was great, but I couldn't take the glitches. I usually don't give up on a game, but I did on this one. I was looking forward to seeing the end.
i think i got the message
after alotof thninking ive come to a conclusion
screens are the government people
they always takes care of us and gives us orders for our good(or that is what he want us to think).he seems your protector but he isnt.if you try to go out of the borders he set you..stuff hapens(when you go against a wall there is a sign of -WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING?-and you die in an instant)
when you are close to the end,they change your route but they make you believe that its your fault
red freaks are ordinary people...nobody wants your good
some are agressive and want to harm you
some will hurt you only if you annoy them
others will pretend to love you, and act like if you are away they are in pain and when you get close , they strike,they use it as a trap(the ''friends'' generally speaking)correct me if im wrong
the common sense of red freaks
if you like what they like its ok if not you are an idiot(ordinary people)
they also learn by imitation , so does human beings
the game is representation of life
its extremely furstrating and unfair
is that the message you want to pass or am i wrong?
Loved it. Red freaks scare the hell outta me. My friend walked in the door and I screamed at the top of my lungs- he was in a red suit!

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
I ended up getting a cell phone ticket the other day. I was on my phone for maybe 30 seconds and ended up getting pulled over. I read online the ticket was $20.00 for first offense. Well I got the ticket in the mail and it is $160.00!!!! Why is this??? I have the option of doing traffic school for $214.00. If I do not do the traffic school will this increase my insurance for sure??
Please let me know. Thanks!
You can fight this twice - first by a written trial by declaration. You submit a declaration laying out your side and why you weren't guilty. If the officer doesn't respond, you win. If you lose the trial by written declaration, you can then request a trial de novo (a traffic trial). If the officer is properly served and doesn't show, you win. If they do show, the worst that happens is you get the same fine.
The $20 jumps because of the "penalty assessments" they tack on. Essentially, they are taxes on any base fine. There are also mandatory court costs on top of that.
The good news for this violation is that it does not count as a "point" on your driving history, so it should not affect your insurance. Yes, you could do traffic school to get this dismissed, but you won't be eligible for traffic school for another 18 months, so if I were you, I'd "save" traffic school for in the event you get caught for a moving violation that really matters. I'd rather get a speeding ticket dismissed by way of traffic school than the cell phone ticket.
The above answer is for general information only and is based on the information you posted. Every case is fact dependent, so to get a thorough analysis of your situation, you will need to consult face to face with an attorney licensed to practice in the jurisdiction where the incident took place. Do not conclusively rely on any information posted online when deciding what to do about your case.Ask a similar question
Thank you for the helpful info! Good point on the traffic school! Ok so even though I am guilty of it I would still do this? Would I just explain my record is clean, it was an emergency etc? Also where do I find the written trial by declaration form and would I send that to the court listed on my ticket? Thank you!!!
Contact the traffic clerk's office at the courthouse where your case is to be heard. You'll have to post the bail amount and they will provide you with the forms for your trial by declaration. When you submit yours in time, they notify the officer and they'll have a deadline to submit theirs. You're not guilty unless a judge finds you guilty. Yes, Vehicle Code section 23123(c) does have an exception for use of handheld devices for emergencies, so if that's the case, you better be prepared to document that along with your declaration.
So I would need to pay the fine of the $160.00 and than file the papers? How does that work? Do they give me the money back if the police officer does not respond to the trial by declaration? It was not a 911 kind of emergency so I would imagine they will not except it as a real emergency. I was on my phone for 30 seconds though and was at a stop light as I crossed the light and clicked my phone off the bike cop was right there! I have a great driving record and wish that it would count for something. Being that this is a first offense $160 seems insane to me. It is California though....
Yes, you post the bail amount ($160) so if you don't submit your papers, it becomes a closed case and bail forfeiture. If the officer doesn't respond, they will return the bail amount to you. If you win, they will return the bail amount to you. I can't tell you what to say in the declaration you'll be submitting under penalty of perjury, but you can look at the code yourself and determine what explanation you want to give. You could always NOT make a statement and simply put that you stand by your "Not Guilty" plea (or simply "I am not guilty.") Why? Because even in your traffic matter, you're innocent until proven guilty. The government must prove the case against you, not the other way around. If you offer your explanation and plea for sympathy, you're simply offering up facts for the court to find you guilty. I'm fairly sure they'll look at this as a $20 non-moving violation. I don't think they'll be moved by a clean prior record enough to just dismiss the case if you're guilty. Sorry. So - bottom line: It's your call. $160 fine and lesson learned, move on with no point on your DMV history and don't do it again (because the second one carries a larger base fine that just makes the total fine go way up).... OR.... Spend tonight Googling trial by declaration. Look at form TR-200 and TR-205 [the official forms for the trial by declaration and instructions to defendants], read websites about this issue and then decide. Again - you probably have nothing to lose. You're posting the same amount to fight it as you would to just plead guilty. It's a form. It'll take you about 3 minutes to fill out (plus the time to go to court) and you may just win. Your mention "bike cop" - if you mean motorcycle, then you should know... they're traffic cops. They have probably done more than a few of these trial by declarations. If they do not remember you or the details of your case to sufficiently fill out their declaration, then you'll win. If you lose, you can still set it for a traffic trial and see if the officer shows up then or not. Best of luck. If you've found this exchange helpful, please click the "best answer" button as a thank you for the answers.
Ok. I think I will do the declaration either way and if I can not decide what to write, I will write not guilty. Hopefully the cop will not remember me and if I do not win I guess lesson learned. To do this I just go to the court house listed, pay the fine and THAN ask for the paperwork for the declaration right? Than can I just fill it out right there at the courthouse and hand it right back to them?
You should be able to do it all at once. Look up the form online if you want so you can practice and know what you're going to put on the form. You should be able to pay and submit it. You may even be able to take in one you download and fill out ahead of time. When you see the traffic clerk, tell them you want to do a trial by declaration.
Ok. I just wanted to say thank you so much for your prompt responses, all of your advice and for educating me on what my options are. I'm sure you are very busy and I just wanted you to know I REALLY appreciate you taking the time to go into detail about what to do and how to handle the ticket. Thanks again! Cheers!
A cell phone ticket is a non point moving violation. Traffic school is not necessary. The fine is so high because of State penalty assessments.Ask a similar question
Does this mean that my insurance WILL NOT go up because I did not get any points?
Hiriing an attorney likely will be more expensive than paying the ticket. If you have the time, go to the first court appearance, plead not guilty, set a trial for about 2-3 months out, and if the officer doesn't show up for the trial date then the case will likely be dismissed.

Christian Eriksen is confident Tottenham will be even stronger this season following their two new signings.
Spurs mounted a serious push for their first ever Premier League crown last campaign but fell just short to surprise package Leicester.
Tottenham finished third behind the Foxes and north London rivals Arsenal but secured a spot in the Champions League for the first time since the 2010-11 season.
Manager Mauricio Pochettino has strengthened his squad with midfield enforcer Victor Wanyama and Vincent Janssen, and is very close to securing a deal for Georges-Kevin N'Koudou according to Sky Sports News.
Crucially, Pochettino has been able to hang on to the players who were so key to the team's revival last season.
"We have the same team, we did well with the same team last year," Eriksen told Tribal Football."Now we have two new players and hopefully that will make us even stronger.
"That will make us push even harder for one of the spaces we want but it's too early to say if we want the title or not.
"For us, we have to see where we are and continue to do well. We have Champions League to think about this year so it's a bit different to other years."
Spurs will have the welcomed distraction of European football this year and will be playing their home games at Wembley Stadium after agreeing a deal.
Pochettino looks set to maintain the core from last season as he prepares for his third season with the club.
The young English foundation of Eric Dier, Dele Alli and Harry Kane played a huge role in their success, the latter earning the golden boot award for his 25 league goals.
Alli also picked up the accolade of PFA Young Player of the Year after scoring 10 goals and providing nine assists for Pochettino's side.
Danish midfielder Eriksen was another key player for Spurs, scoring six goals and supplying 13 assists in his 35 Premier League appearances.
In other Tottenham team news, Ledley King has given his verdict on new signing Victor Wanyama.

but I just see the memories as they come
dress thrift,fascinator and bag -made by me.
I also made a skirt form blinding fabric I got at the thrift store.It looks cool as a dress too though I 'm not sure if its too short to wear it this way.Look at the hem I used a zipper that was almost as tall as me. The skirt I'm holding came in a bag of fabric at the thrift store. I just hemmed and added a hook and eye. Its a bit tiny so I have to squeeze into it. The bag came with tons more of it so I think I want a jacket from it. The heart skirt used to kids pj pants.
Something in one of these photos is the hint for the next post.

This morning i thought to myself what goes better with shiny leggings? The obvious answer is a blinding skirt. Some of my friends say that the skirt is a safety hazard because it leaves an afterimage.
Not much for today. My sewing machine broke and I have to wait until the weekend to get it fixed and if its not fixable I'm screwed.
I've been watching this all day.
I'm going to make my Q&A vlog soon so get those questions up. I really like making vlogsAnd if I don't have a topic I'll just ramble.

Then he dissapeared and did not answer his phone, or get back to numerous texts and emails, and left a bathroom full of rubble. When my husband called at his home he pretended not to be there, this happened three times. The plumber we have empolyed to clear up Goddens mess informs us that Goddens' work was highly incompetant, and failed some of the most basic tests of good practice. Horror story.

I was very pleased with the work that Dean and his team did on my house, which included wallpapering and some interior and exterior painting. The wallpapering work was particularly well done.

A little expensive for the quality. They were a two man team that was both reliable and punctual. They were reluctant to clarify some details as the job progressed and subsequently guessed or used their own judgment as to what was required. As a result, there remain a number of irritating errors which I will have to sort out over time. Not ideal. I subsequently will not use them again.

Shade of the sea waving in long elegant shapes. This glass window accent was inspired by nature. Maybe a cool pod hanging from a tree, a seed floating on the wind, a flower bud waiting to open. Hang it in a sunny window or an ornament stand and place it on your desk! Glass is meant to be viewed in the light, so choose a sunny location or a well lit space so that you can experience the full glow and sparkle, magic, that only glass can produce.

Hy-Vee's Hispanic Retail Efforts Lauded at Hispanic 360 Conference
Hy-Vee Inc. was presented with a 2008 Hispanic Retail Excellence Award for its leadership in targeting the growing Latino population during the Hispanic Retail 360 summit held recently in Miami.
Hy-Vee Inc. was presented with a 2008 Hispanic Retail Excellence Award for its leadership in targeting the growing Latino population during the Hispanic Retail 360 summit held recently in Miami.
Awards were determined by a survey of more than 1,000 Hispanic-focused retailer and supplier executives, who were asked to name the retailer that did the most in the past year to win the hearts, minds and spending dollars of Hispanic consumers.
"Our stores are truly attentive to each and every customer's needs," said Hy-Vee's diversity manager Jose Amaya. "As the Latino population expands, store directors are determined to order new products and organize diverse activities to better serve their communities. Our company has taken a sincere interest in supporting these customers and I'm proud the company has been recognized for those efforts."
The employee-owned Hy-Vee's 224 stores located in seven Midwestern states offer specialty produce and other products unique to the Latino population. The W. Des Moines, Iowa-based chain's stores have also made significant financial and in-kind donations to support various organizations, festivals and activities, said Amaya.
The abundance of Latino food items in the last two decades has resulted in the category becoming more mainstream among all consumers. "Hy-Vee has taken the concept one step further by adding new products and authentic ingredients that broaden the scope of that category," added Pat Hensley, retail operations a.v.p.
Other 2008 Hispanic 360 category winners included Target Stores (mass retail), 7-Eleven (convenience stores), Longs Drugs (drug stores), Jewel/Osco (tied in the grocery category), and Best Buy (specialty retail).
Hispanic Retail 360 is produced by Progressive Grocer and Convenience Store News, two leading media brands owned by Nielsen Business Media. The "presenting sponsors" were The Coca-Cola Co. and Anheuser-Busch Inc. Other sponsors included The Hershey Company, Latin Force, Televisa, AARP, McLane Co. and Latin Force.
Association and media partners included EthnicEvents.com, Hispanic Ad.com, Hispanic Market Weekly, Hispanic Trending, Hispanic MPR, Latin Vision Media, Mercado de Dinero USA, NACS, the Association for Convenience and Petroleum Retailing, Neighborhood Market Association, POPOI, and Supermercados USA.

I have a B Makowski beige purse. Blue dye from my jeans rubbed off onto it. How do I get it off? The leather is very soft and the bottom of the purse is metallic leather. Please help.
By Jill from Pittsburg, PA
Try leather conditioner. Coach makes some especially for their handbags; maybe your designer does too. Use a soft, clean rag, and lots of elbow grease. Rub in the direction of the grain. I had this happen on my beige leather seats in my vehicle. (12/02/2009)

Porsche Building Limited Run of Martini-Liveried 911
A good race car livery sticks in the minds and hearts of auto enthusiasts, and one of the all-time great liveries is coming back to the one of the all-time great sports cars.
Porsche is celebrating its return to Le Mans racing this year by offering a new special edition 911 Carrera S, named the Martini Racing Edition. Offered in black or white, the car wears the iconic red and blue race stripes of Martini that Porsche's classic 1970's race cars once wore.
This isn't just an appearance package however. These cars receive the same rear spoiler and front splitter that is found in Porsche's race-derived Aerokit Cup package. The interior also gets upgraded with a Bose sound system, the sport chrono pack, a sport design steering wheel, leather wrapped sport seats and a body-colored dashboard with a Martini emblem.
SEE ALSO: Audi Welcomes Porsche Back to Le Mans Racing – Video
The engine remains stock, which means that each Martini Special Edition is powered by a 3.8-liter flat-six engine that makes 400 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque, sent through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.
Only 80 of these cars will be built, with sales beginning in Europe later this month. This special edition will be available in China, Japan and Latin America before the end of the year, but unfortunately, Porsche has no plans to bring this car to the United States.

Which Due Diligence methods are best? You may want to rethink your position after reading this. Value is meaningless if accuracy is in question.
Pu t a PI or Professional DD team in your corner! If you have ever been cheated in a business deal, no matter how large or small the amount, you have learned the true value of due diligence. The insult to your ego and personal dignity is often more painful than your financial loss. But one or two bad experiences is not enough to properly prepare or train you to do your own investigations in the future. There are over 300 known variations of scams and more than half of them are so sophisticated, that even some law enforcement officers took the bait! While most scams are aimed at individual investors or on-line buyers, the most believable and deadly frauds are the B2B frauds. B2B frauds come is all sorts of shapes and sizes but they all focus on your ?need and greed? buttons. The scammers know that every business owner has the heart of an entrepreneur and the greed to match. More business is what every business wants and needs. So the sly guys will devise devious scams masquerading within elaborate consulting or marketing contracts design not only to swindle you, but to obtain your client database and personal financial data that will then be sold for thousands of dollars to yet other con artists that specialize in identity fraud! Such frauds are often packaged within barter exchanges which guarantee to unload all of your unsold inventory or allow you to acquire millions of raw materials without paying taxes at huge discounts. The sales pitch is irresistible but you will see that thousands of people who join barter exchanges coincidentally become victims of identity theft shortly thereafter. While some barter exchanges are in fact legit, you might want to visit a few of these links to see if you really want to disclose the detailed disclosures they want from you: http://www.scamchecker.com/content/steve-and-marti-bolles-merchants-barter-exchange-steve- bolles-800-822-7204-multiple-frauds-i http://www.ripoffreport.com/directory/Merchants-Barter-Exchange.aspx Another favorite B2B scam are free directory and on-line ads. Free advertising sounds great but when your email mailbox fills up with endless and useless spam, you will wonder why your $20,000 industrial pumps are being sold on a penis enlargement web site. These scams will include contracts that they collect sizable bonuses ?if your web site gets 5,000 more hits every week? (for example). They deliberately do not include the words ?qualified unique hits? and after you get hit with a few monthly invoices for $3,500-$5,000, you will surely ask to delist your free directory listing and ads, only to learn there is a $999 ?delisting fee?. The devil is always in the details and that is what all that fine print is always about. But this is relative peanuts friends. The costly frauds can cost you ownership of your company and any assets owned by your company. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$ $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ We don?t have enough time to detail all of these frauds here and now, but you are welcome to see quite a few of them detailed on our web site. But the focus here is that you alone will never find all the red flags of a fraud, or even enough of them to alert you that you are setting yourself up for a swindle. You might indeed be alerted by demands for up-front fees if made verbally by a prospective private funder, but would you really think twice if they put you on the phone with five satisfied clients who provided endless praise about the millions raised for them in less than 45 days? You would learn later that the glorious referrals given to you came from paid shills. Professional scams require professional due diligence and if you truly think otherwise, sooner or later you too will join the carnage of victims and promptly change your mind. So, would YOU rather learn from someone else?s mistake or your own my friend? Finding the right due diligence partner is like finding the right doctor. When you have heart problems you don?t waste your time consulting with podiatrists. Likewise, when you are pursuing business or investments in China, you don?t hire some P.I. from Boston who earns his living exposing insurance fraud or cheating husbands. Of course you?ll be tempted to save a few bucks and try to figure it all out for yourself at some FraudWatch.com web site. If you think that will save your butt from the hungry sharks, read the article at this link: http://www.globaltrade.net/international-trade-import-exports/f/business/pdf/China/Investing- Cyberspace-Due-Diligence-Options.html Due Diligence investigators usually specialize in a certain market, industry, or product line. For example there are many great snoops that can spot on-line internet fraud but wouldn?t recognize joint venture fraud if they tripped over it on the way to the toilet. Seriously, if you contemplate doing any business venture, investment, or trading in China, let the China Trade Commission give you some referrals of local specialists best suited for your specific needs. Local investigators in China will have the eyes, ears, and resources on-site that nobody in another country could ever acquire. Accurate business intelligence is more current and easier to develop when investigators have friendly and cooperative long time sources, or know how to persuade someone properly to get the information they need. To see what kind of information is available on a prospective partner, company, or government official, you really need to see a sample due diligence report and you can get one for free at this below link to use as your basic guide: http://www.globaltrade.net/promo/Due-Diligence- Report---Sample.html. This writer first learned about due diligence the hard way - 28 years ago after losing $60,000 in an elaborate investment scheme fronted by a respected Merrill Lynch executive who was in on the scam. Shortly thereafter, I was hired by the U.S. Treasury department as a CID special agent, and spent six months learning all about financial and business investigations. Ever since, I have never stopped learning. Timing is everything in life! Hopefully, YOU can learn about ?DD? at a far less costly price than I had to pay. Remember our motto? ?Be Sure ? Not Sorry?. ? The China Trade Commission $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ $$

5 Ways the Digital World Can Benefit New Businesses
Setting up a successful new business has never been easy, and these days there's more to consider than bricks and mortar, because you've got to establish and maintain your online presence as well.
Breaking into the online market entails a lot of hard work, perseverance and experimentation, but it's all worth it in the end. Here are five examples of how the digital world can significantly benefit your business:
1. Having an attractive and user-friendly website can convey brand prestige
A potential customer is far more likely to trust you if they enjoy a smooth user experience on your website. Think about your own behaviour when you research products and services online – would an ugly, confusing or slow website put you off a company? Of course it would.
Your website needs to ooze quality – both on the surface and underneath it. Sleek design and logical layout are nothing without mobile-responsiveness and fast page-loading. Your site has to offer it all.
Try to remember that a good website doesn't come cheap. You'll need to invest and reinvest in it.
2. Creating and publishing insightful content can position you as an authority within your field
Many people use the internet to look for ways in which to solve particular problems. They're looking for information – for answers to their questions.
If you create informative and entertaining content, you will stand a much better chance of gaining the trust of your target audience. Effective content formats include:
- Blog posts (which should either be thought-provoking, question-answering or problem-solving)
- Data-driven reports (containing your own research and statistics)
- Comprehensive guides and whitepapers on specific topics
- Instructional or educational videos
3. Organic social media activity can improve your brand's visibility
You might already have Twitter and Facebook accounts set up, but are you using them properly? Many businesses unwisely view social media as a chore. Don't be one of those businesses.
Social media is a massive marketing opportunity that you need to capitalise on. If you implement a solid strategy, you will be more likely to engage your target customers and drive them to your website.
It's not that complicated: just share your fantastic content across your social media channels. Then share it again. And again. And again. But don't just regurgitate your previous posts – vary the wording each time (i.e. don't just copy-and-paste the same tweet over and over, because that looks spammy and lazy).
There is no one-size-fits-all social media strategy; yours will depend largely on the nature of your business and also on the habits and preferences of your target audience. But as long as you post content that is relevant to your customers, using their language, and at the times of day when they're most active on social media, you should find that it works well for you.
4. Paid social media activity can help you reach new relevant customers and target specific demographics
Once you've established an organic social media presence and you've figured out what sorts of posts your customers are engaging with, you should then start to explore the possibilities of paid social media.
What is paid social? It's where you pay to promote your content (i.e. adverts), and you can do it on all the big social channels: Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and even Pinterest.
Why should you use paid social when you can also post for free? Because paid social allows you to target your posts towards specific demographics – like your typical customer persona(s).
5. Local-search optimisation can maximise your online visibility in your geographic area
Many internet users want to find local businesses when they search for products and services online. For example, if you want a solicitor and you're based in the Manchester area, you'll probably want that solicitor to also be locally based. The same goes for plumbers, joiners, IT repairs and many more.
Unfortunately, you won't automatically have online visibility within your local area – you'll need to undergo local-search optimisation (AKA local SEO) to ensure that you are.
alldayPA: Aiding the Smooth Running of Your Business
Although conquering the online world is essential, your company will also need to retain its human element (quite literally) – and that's where we come in.
With a successful website your business will be open 24/7, and people will want to talk to you at various times of the day – that's just how it is nowadays. At alldayPA, we offer expert call-answering services that can be customised to fit your requirements, including 24-hour customer-service lines that are perfect for online businesses. All of our PAs are friendly customer-service specialists who know how to talk to people.
By outsourcing to us, your customer service will be in safe hands, and you will able to concentrate on expanding your business and building your reputation.

Electric eraser
By Bc
from San Diego, Ca.
This is the best eraser for artist I've ever found. Thank you for carrying it!
Excellent product
By David
from Von Ormy, TX
I like the powerful motor; Despite this, you can still remove very small amounts of graphite without burning the paper; There is also very little vibration
Would buy again!
By CrimsonSketcher
from Houston, TX
I LOVE this eraser! I use both graphite and colored pencil a lot and this eraser will even erase the colored pencil without leaving any color behind and without damaging the paper. Manual erasing can be painful since I have arthritis, but I don't have to worry about that anymore since I purchased this electric eraser. You can buy a box of refills to keep you erasing for years. I would definitely recommend this product to any pencil artist!
I like it
By Desert Dave
from Goodyear Arizona
Works well to fix color pencil painting mistakes

If your cholesterol's come down and you're thinking about discontinuing your statin use, you may want to reconsider. One class of the common cholesterol-controlling drug may significantly lower your risk for Parkinson's Disease, according to research published in Neurology.
The study team tracked the health outcomes of roughly 44,000 statin users—all free of Parkinson's at the start of the decade-long study. Compared to people who stopped taking statins, those who continued swallowing fat-soluble forms of the drug, which include simvastatin (Zocor) and atorvastatin (Lipitor), were 58% less likely to develop Parkinson's, the research shows. Fat-soluble statins were even more protective in women and the elderly. On the other hand, water-soluble statin users were more than twice as likely to develop Parkinson's than their friends on fat-soluble ones.
You may unsubscribe at any time.
Why? Unlike water-soluble statins like rosuvastatin (Crestor) and pravastatin (Pravachol), which doctors call "hydrophilic" statins, the fat soluble or "lipophilic" forms of the drug are able to cross the blood-brain barrier, explains study co-author Jou-Wei Lin, MD, PhD, of National Taiwan University's College of Medicine. That greater penetration into your brain's cells may result in additional anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits that slow or stop the development of Parkinson's, Dr. Lin adds.
So should you start gobbling Lipitor tablets like your brain's life depends on it? Not necessarily. The overall risk of developing Parkinson's among the study participants was very small, and the researchers did not compare their study data to the general population. If Parkinson's Disease runs in your family, you may want to talk with your doctor about continuing use of fat-soluble statins—if you're already taking them, Dr. Lin advises. But more research is needed to prove if statins can beat back Parkinson's among people who aren't struggling with cholesterol problems.

Grilled Orange-Ginger Tilapia
READY IN: 40mins
Recipe by Shirl J 831
I found this via the net and posted it in request for a tilapia recipe.
Top Review by black78transam
This is a great recipe. I generally don't like to eat Tilapia but I will be making this one again. I don't like mayonnaise and was pleased when the bottle I have in the fridge expired in... 2008! So I just added a little more plain yogurt and the whole thing came out great. Very refreshing.

Radium Changes Entire World for McDonaldsContributes dynamic effects to new spot (July 20, 2004)
In a visually compelling spot for client McDonalds, leading digital effects studio Radium completed intense effects and CG work on ?Boardwalk. Set to the highly recognized ?Im Lovin It jingle, the :30 spot by Leo Burnett USA features a young man walking along a sidewalk and enjoying a McDonalds Big Mac as the entire world changes around him.
To achieve the spots numerous effects, the hero was shot live on the sidewalk using motion control while the other people were shot on stage against a greenscreen. Radium was involved from the very beginning -- shooting stills of the beachfront properties, and setting up an elaborate series of marks and measurements to ensure all of the elements lined up properly. Over 1,200 separate images were used in the creation of the spot.
?This spot was designed to be shot in a number of different layers, with the backgrounds being all CGI and the people being layers of motion control passes, explains Jonathan Keeton, Radium Creative Director and Co-Founder. ?Every single object that appeared on the sidewalk had to be mapped so it stayed in the same place when we moved production to the stage. All of the people the hero interacts with were shot on a stage with different outfits while giving the same performance repeatedly.
To create the illusion of the crowds on the sidewalk, a group of extras walked in front and behind what would become CGI walls and were shot in time lapse. Radium then composited between two to six crowd layers for each pass.
Radium artists were also responsible for creating all of the buildings and backgrounds in CG. The software tools utilized on the project included Maya with Mental Ray, Inferno and Boujou.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 27/11/2012 (1730 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The ILOCANOS Association of Manitoba Inc. (AIM) was founded just four short years ago. Since then,this relatively small, Maples-based Filipino organization has been making a very big impact in the local community and in the Philippines with its bold outreach programs and care missions.
Super volunteers Mario Rosario (president), his wife Myra Rosario (secretary) and a team of dedicated members are spending most of their spare time on the projects of AIM.
"Our children are all grown-up, and they are established in their respective professions. We are now free to give back to our community in Winnipeg and reach out to the less fortunate in the Philippines", Mario Rosario said.
AIM focuses on only a few big projects and events each year. The organization's 200-plus members are especially proud of its annual care mission to the rural areas of the Philippines.
Next May, 10 members of the organization will travel to the Philippines, at their own expense, to distribute hundreds of hefty care hampers. The packages include groceries, clothing, soap, toothbrushes, and first-aid kits. Mini seminars on health care and home economics will also be presented to the families in need.
Board members Danny Amyo and his wife Remy Amyo are the dynamic couple that will lead next year's team of volunteers on the three-week mission
"We are truly blessed in Canada, and we are very happy to share our blessings to those in need", Danny Amyo said.
Last August, AIM was the grand winner at the First Filipino Street and Cultural Festival.
The organization won the best float and best costume contests, beating out 30 other organizations.
On Saturday, Nov. 17, the ILOCANOS Association held its fourth sold-out annual gala and banquet at the Marlborough Inn. Proceeds from this popular event go to the care-mission project.
"It is important to keep this organization together and respond to community needs and lead the way to improve the quality of life for all", AIM founder Manuel Joven said.

After my own futile attempts and that of a gunsmith, I finally tracked down one who had built his own custom jig to secure my Springfield Armory XD for a notoriously difficult site removal. I drove on over after leaving Bob Reynolds, a big smile still plastered on my face from shooting his Broadsword carbine.
Though I was in a great mood after my full-auto jaunt, I wasn't too hopeful as we got started on removing the XD's rear sight.
The 'smith, Chris, bent his sight pusher on the first attempt. This was a sight pusher that he had successfully used to push out factory XD sights in the past. "This is the most trouble I've ever had with one of these before," he said.
After some adjustments with the jig he proceeded to try the time-tested, brass hammer and punch technique, and started breaking a sweat. He put the brass hammer and punch down, turned on some large piece of industrial machinery I could not hope to identify, and the next thing I know, he'd milled or drilled what I can only describe as a sabot to hold the punch… a target for the bigger hammer… a ball peen.
I think I winced before he ever swung, and know I stepped back.
When I say he hit it, friends, I'm not doing it justice. HE. HIT. IT. Like Eliot "Client #9" Spitzer with $5k to burn, or Oprah at a dollar menu. Full wind-up, and wham!
About the fourth heavy blow the sight moved a little, and the next shot pushed it halfway out of the slide. After that, a couple of gentle taps completed the procedure.
The smile returned to my face and I headed home, one exhausted puppy.
* * *
It wasn't until tonight that I was able to make a go at installing the Laserlyte RL… remember that? The reason we started this little project?
This time, things were almost disgustingly simple. I was able to start the sight by hand, so I know I wasn't going to have serious problems.
I still needed a third or fourth hand to get the slide adjusted in the RL tool properly, but once that was aligned properly and cinched down, it was simply a matter of pushing the sight home, and the RL Tool performed as designed.
From there, it was a fairly simply process of anchoring the sight with an allen screw from about, and then using an even smaller floss-thin allen wrench to tune the red dot into something vaguely resembling a bore sighting process, as I did the best I could prior to going to the range.
First, pre-range impressions?
It continually amazes me how technology is progressing. Large laser modules mounted under the barrel are still extremely common (and obviously, preferred by some users). Others use a grip-mounted unit, like the Crimson Trace on the Smith & Wesson 637CT I carried researching Six Months Under the Gun.
A simple unit that mounts in your pistol's existing rear-sight dovetail is big enough to hold batteries smaller than a children's asprin and a laser that will provide the shooter with that little extra bit of confidence in tense situations where attitude adjustments may be necessary.
Unfortunately my local range was closed by the time I got the RL mounted and roughly adjusted. I plan on getting there as soon as my day job, daughter's cheerleading schedule (I swear, they train more than SEALs), blogging, and yard work allow.
First impressions are that the LaserLyte is a solid unit that provides a Glock-like sight picture, though one slightly obscured by the battery and laser modules of either side of the sight channel. Is that serious detriment? I don't think so. I think that, like so many things, it falls into the category of personal preference. I'd rather give up minimal peripheral vison in my sight picture in order to gain increased sighting speed and increased point shooting accuracy (is it fair to call it point shooting if you use the laser-dot to aim?) and speed, not to mention the deterrent effect lasers can have on folks with less than honorable intentions.
I suspect that the LaserLyte RL will work very well, and I'll confirm that with a range report for you, just as soon as I can.

Saif Ali Khan's son Ibrahim Ali Khan is the new favourite kid of the media. We bring to you some rare and unseen picture of Ibrahim which are too good to miss!
Ibrahim Ali Khan is the youngest son of Saif Ali Khan and his first wife Amrita Singh. This handsome star kid is also very close to his superhot step mother Kareena Kapoor.
Ibrahim Ali Khan loves to play cricket. Talking about the same Saif told a leading daily, "I'm happy that he's taking an interest. Right now, he is just enjoying the game. There shouldn't be any kind of pressure. No one should even think of comparing him to his grandfather or great-grandfather. It would be really unfair.''
Saif Ali Khan Upset With His Son Ibrahim Ali Khan?
Saif Ali Khan further added, "If Ibrahim is interested, I'll support him in whatever way I can. My parents never pressurised me to do anything. So there's no question of me doing anything like that. Becoming a cricketer is something that will depend on him. He can become whatever he wants.''

Jacobsen banked in a jumper with 3.6 seconds left as No. 3 Stanford roared back from an 11-point deficit in the final four minutes to beat top-ranked Duke 84-83 Thursday night at the Pete Newell Challenge.
"Now there'll be a new No. 1, and we'll see who it will be," Jacobsen said with a grin.
According to Jacobsen, who tied his career high with 26 points, Stanford's first victory over a top-ranked team since 1988 was more than a thrilling comeback win in front of a deafening crowd.
It was redemption for the Cardinal (9-0), who are still stinging from last season's collapse against North Carolina in the NCAA tournament. Stanford often feels overlooked on the West Coast despite its perennially high national ranking.
After beating Duke, that respect shouldn't take long to arrive.
"We don't get a chance to play a lot of East Coast teams, and we wanted everyone out there to know what Stanford basketball was all about."
It's about heart, apparently. After being outrun and outplayed all night, the Cardinal put together a stunning rally that had everyone from Newell to Jerry West to Stanford alum Tiger Woods standing and cheering.
"There's an aura Duke has because they play with such extreme confidence," Stanford coach Mike Montgomery said. "We need to develop that ... and this was a big step."
Down 77-6 with four minutes to play, Stanford finally sensed fatigue catching up to the Blue Devils' seven-man rotation. The Cardinal made an 11-1 run and tied it at 79 on Julius Barnes' layup with 1:09 left, but Mike Dunleavy's leaner with 51 seconds left reclaimed the lead for Duke (10-1).
"We didn't convert our last few chances, and that put us in a position to lose," Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said. "We came out ready to play, but we just missed at the end."
The Blue Devils led 83-82 when Dunleavy was fouled with 14 seconds left, but he missed two free throws to give Stanford one last shot. With calm and precision, Jacobsen came off a screen, drove the left side of the court and kissed a fallaway shot off the glass.
"We did everything we had to do until the last four minutes," said Dunleavy, who had 13 points. "I thought I'd make (the free throws), and we'd get out of here with a win."
Duke rushed back down the court, but Jason Williams missed a driving layup, and Nate James' follow-up shot came after the buzzer. Woods and his friends hugged each other, and the Cardinal hugged each other to celebrate Stanford's second victory over a No. 1 team in school history.
California faced Georgia in the second game of the Challenge, but all eyes at Oakland Arena were focused on the Bay Area's most high-profile college hoops matchup in years. The game lived up to every bit of its hype.
For most of the game, the Cardinal appeared to be on the verge of suffering a blowout loss. The game was expected to be a contest of wills between Stanford's powerful inside game and Duke's up-tempo style, but the Blue Devils jumped to a big early lead, then continually threatened to pull away in the second half.
"We were kind of timid to start the game, and we shouldn't have been," Montgomery said. "I thought as the game went on, we got accustomed to playing at that level."
Jacobsen kept the Cardinal within striking distance by shooting 11-of-19 from all spots on the field.
Shane Battier scored 26 points for Duke before fouling out with 35 seconds left. Carlos Boozer also fouled out with five minutes left.
Williams had 26 points and played stifling defense, but the confident, balanced offensive club that dominated the first 35 minutes disappeared during Stanford's comeback. Duke shot just 29 percent in the second half.
Jason Collins had 10 points and 15 rebounds for Stanford. His twin brother, Jarron, added 16 points and six rebounds as Stanford improved to 19-0 in games the twins have started together.
Newell, the 85-year-old coaching icon who led Cal to the 1959 NCAA title and coached the Olympic team in 1960, watched from courtside with Jerry West and Oscar Robertson. A few seats down the row, Woods and his college roommate, Jerry Chang, cheered on the Cardinal.

As others have said the Riad Sable Chaud really was an oasis from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech. The staff were charming and friendly being more than happy to write down the recipes for the wonderful evening meals we had. Breakfasts were also delicious, and huge, and both breakfasts and evening meals had a real home cooked feel. As stated the staff were very friendly, always on hand to help with a query or provide a drink, though not in a way that was overbearing. I would definitely recommend the Raid Sable Chaud to anyone staying in Marrakech.
