An Evening With DAR WILLIAMS
Saturday, March 4, 2017, 7:30 pm
"One of America's very best singer-songwriters" THE NEW YORKER
"Her sweet soprano, wicked wit and poetically understated guitar playing have made her one of America's top female singer/songwriters" AMOEBA MUSIC
Opening: TREVOR GORDON HALL
"Young, talented, daring...helping to transform the way the instrument is being played around the world"
-ACOUSTIC GUITAR MAGAZINE (naming Hall to Top 30 Guitarists Under 30)
One of the most lauded singer\songwriters of her generation, Dar Williams has entranced the music world for more than two decades with her poignant lyrical commentary and beautiful musical arrangements. We introduced her to the region as a new talent two decades ago; we welcome her again as a premier American musical voice.
Every new album from Williams represents her thoughts and feelings about both her own life and larger forces in the world. But her ninth studio record Emerald (2015) marked a particularly dramatic confluence between her experiences and broader contemporary culture - and what it means to be a songwriter at this moment in history.
In the past few years, Williams has been involved in a wide range of different efforts and projects: teaching a course titled 'Music Movements in a Capitalist Democracy' at her alma mater, Wesleyan University; working with children at several summer camps; leading songwriting workshops; getting involved in the workings of her village; and writing a book about the ways she's seen towns becoming more independent and prosperous over her 20 years of touring. In addition, in the face of dramatic transformations in the music industry, she is released Emerald on her own after choosing to part ways with Razor & Tie, her label for almost 20 years.
"I'm now experiencing the fruits of the alternative culture I was part of in the '90s," she says. "I think I've made choices about how I lived my life, outside of the world that was going to fit me among the mainstream norms, and I chose to stay with my friends, to stay with my culture.
"That turns out to have been the sturdiest structure I could have built for myself. And that's in my songs, it's in my teaching. I'm a believer in what can happen when we make music together."
He has been featured on various national radio stations including NPR and national and international television networks including NBC, PBS and German national television.
At the start of his career, Trevor caught the eye of nine- time Grammy award winning producer Joe Nicolo (James Taylor, Billy Joel, Bob Dylan, etc.), who produced two of Hall's releases, Finding My Way and Let Your Heart Be Light.
Hall collaborated with various builders to design an original instrument combining an african finger piano (kalimba) and an acoustic guitar. This very original "Kalimbatar" inspired his Candyrat Records debut Entelechy (2011), which rapidly climbed the iTunes Singer/Songwriter charts, as well as YouTube's Top Commented/Top Favorited/Most Discussed categories, gathering millions of views with the release of performance videos.

"When you have vision it affects your attitude. Your attitude is optimistic rather than pessimistic."
"I am confident that, in the end, common sense and justice will prevail. I'm an optimist, brought up on the belief that if you wait to the end of the story, you get to see the good people live happily ever after."
"We're still as confident, as optimistic as we ever were. You know we hit a little stumbling block here, but I think it's going to be good for us because we can learn from it."

I'm just curious about this, not in a position where a client has an investigation coming up.
But if I had such a client, I doubt I'd have the experience to handle anything other than a simple tax office review. A serious investigation would probably be beyond my expertise, if I was intending to give the client the best service etc.
So is it usual to recommend all new clients to purchase fee insurance, etc. And then push them in the direction of a specialist should such a situation arise? Or should I be expected to spot a likely 'potential investigation' client from the start and then recommend the fee insurance?
Who sells fee insurance?
Sorry if the questions sound a bit stupid.
Please login or register to join the discussion.
No it is not always usual but good practice to outline risks and potential costs. Just tell them to join FSB as subscription includes professional fee protection.Not sure who runs FSB scheme (cant remember) however if client makes a claim they will appoint a specialist to deal with investigation if you are not qualified to do so.
Probably costs circa £100 per annum. Give your local FSB a call I'm sure somebody will come and see you to outline things in more detail.
Main thing is to tell them about it
Just to back up what Paul said, ie that it's best practice to make clients aware and to have arrangements to put them in touch (as Paul suggests) or, in our case, take up a scheme on a client by client basis. We use CCH and if something came up that we couldn't handle their experts are their to advice or step in.
We have a very low take up as we don't push it hard but at least clients are aware that it's on offer and only have themselves to blame if they end up paying a fortune to us or an expert should an enquiry or similar happen.
By the way, these schemes cover most anything that could happen, including VAT or PAYE disputes.
If you haven't mentioned it and something goes wrong there could be a PI issue
Thanks for raising that last point about PI
Last week we set up a new Professional indemnity forum on the site, and this thread was the first topic I posted there.
If you want more background, I'd recommend a visit to see what the specialists have to say on the subject (or to comment in more depth yourself).

Trading is one area where less work can often mean more money for the trader. Many stock traders spend hours doing research, but is spending this amount of time necessary for the average trader? Hedge fund managers and traders who control a large amount of capital need to do research in order to find high probability places to invest all that capital, but individual traders are far more nimble, and in fact, a lot of research may be a detriment to independent traders. While research can benefit some traders, in many cases there are alternatives. Find out why when it comes to research, less is often more. (For more, see Can You Invest Like A Hedge Fund.)
Does Research Help the Short-Term Trader?
Swing traders and day traders often spend a lot of time screening and looking through charts for stocks that are about to move. Whether it is looking for breakouts, ranges, chart patterns, indicator levels or current trends that are expected to continue or reverse, searching for the right set-up can take up a lot of time. For short term traders - and even long-term investors - there are no guarantees that this research will produce profitable results, or even profitable trades. After all, a stock that is expected to move may fail to move for several days, weeks or even months.
Research often builds in a directional bias as well. This can mean that a trader will only trade in one direction based on his or her research, even when price indicates the opposite. While it is prudent to "trade with the trend," only looking at one side of the market can lead to missed opportunities or, even worse, failure to realize when we are on the wrong side of a trade.
Short-term traders have the ability to be nimble, and this is their advantage in the market. They can move in and out of positions at will, and with ease. Too much research, and the bias that comes from it, could make a trader is less nimble and may cause him or her to cling to a position based on that research, even as the expected outcome fails to materialize. (To learn more, see Multiple Time Frames Can Multiply Returns.)
An Alternative
An alternative to running constant scans and poring over charts is to look for stocks that are tradable almost every day based on their daily statistics. For example, if a trader is looking for stocks that are poised to move, he or she may screen each night for stocks poised to break out. Some of these stocks may in fact break out the following day, but many may not. As a "less work" alternative, the trader could run a screen once a week on stocks that move a lot each day. In this way, the trader does not have a directional bias, can trade multiple moves in the discovered stocks, and can be almost certain tradable moves will materialize.
An example of such a screen may be:
The price range of stocks a trader would like to trade. A trader must keep in mind the amount of capital available; a high priced stock coupled with volatility may expose the trader to too much risk. For example, a criterion for price may be to find stocks in the $10 to $50 range.
Independent traders should be nimble and thus be able to enter and exit at will. In order to do this, volume must be adequate. A criterion for volume may be to find only stocks that trade at least one million shares per day. (For more, read Gauging Support And Resistance With Price By Volume.)
Average Daily Percentage Moves Based on Opening Price
The purpose of this screen is to only screen for stocks with high percentage daily moves after the open. This allows day traders and swing traders to take advantage of intraday volatility, with no consideration for gaps. An example may be to screen for stocks that have a daily range of at least 5% based on their daily opens over the last month.
If a trader is able to trade stocks that move regularly, there is no need to find the "next big mover." This screen can be tweaked to find stocks that also have narrow ranges and are suitable for catching small consistent moves; this would be accomplished by screening for stocks with much smaller daily ranges (%) based on their open price.
Because we are looking at averages based on the last month (we can use a longer or shorter filter if desired) the screen can be run each week. The stocks that come up can be filtered by the trader and the three to five stocks that are most preferred are the ones that should be traded that week. There is no need for further research. It is also quite common to find stocks that can be traded for extended periods of time; in this case, no further "homework" is required for finding other stocks.
If the screen fails to produce any results, you can adjust our criteria slightly. If the screen produces too many results, make the criteria more stringent so that you are only left with a handful of stocks. Screening software is widely available, and can be found on many websites. (To learn more, check out How Investors Can Screen For Stock Ideas.)
Again, our purpose here is to find stocks that always move intraday, or that fit within a certain intraday pattern that complements your trading style and has a generally consistent range of motion. This will provide you with tradable stocks each day with very little effort.
The amount of research a trader must do can be reduced by trading stocks that have a tendency to make large intraday moves (in terms of percentage) on a consistent basis. Traders can also screen for stocks that move very little and are good for scalping small consistent profits. Such stocks can be found by running a weekly screen (if needed) for stocks that match our price, volume and daily percentage move requirements. These are the stocks you will trade for the week, eliminating the need for further research.
The best thing about being a trader is your ability to be nimble – piling on too much research will only bog you down. (For more, see Getting To Know Stock Screeners.)

Hospital Authority supports workforce by stepping up training, succession management and workplace enhancement
The integrity of a public healthcare system has a stake in the overall well-being of the society as well as its workforce.
In view of this, the Hospital Authority (HA) has taken a range of measures to improve the working conditions at public hospitals. This includes the implementation of a series of well-structured training and development to support the personal and professional development of the authority's 57,000 employees.
"Most of our clinical staff see a reasonable workload, structured training and modern equipment as top priorities. It is our role to cater to these needs," says David Rossiter, head of human resources, Hospital Authority.
Taking nurses as an example, Mr Rossiter explains that the authority responded to their concern about intensive workload by recruiting additional staff and investing in new equipment.
"For instance, we purchased 1,500 electronic hospital beds last year to help ease the physical strain of nursing duties," he notes, acknowledging that optimum working conditions for staff are a prerequisite to providing high-quality patient care.
Succession management
The Hospital Authority also has a strong focus on opportunities for career advancement. A succession management policy is now in place to identify potential leaders, and training programmes have been tailored to equip such employees with the necessary skills to move ahead in their careers and lead the HA towards the future.
"Instead of recruiting from the outside, we look to our existing staff population, as we believe we have enough talented people to take up senior executive positions and management roles," Mr Rossiter says. Through effective succession management, the authority is capable of grooming its next generation of leaders through internal training programmes.
Five years ago, HA started to identify potential leaders in accordance with 12 core leadership competencies. These include the ability to act with courage and conviction, to help ensure that different parts of the organisation work well together, and good communication skills. The authority also looks for people with the compassion for others.
Senior executives are constantly on the lookout for potential candidates. Staff who possess the right leadership attributes and potential are invited to join the authority's 18-month executive leadership programme.
Out of 250 potential candidates, only 30 were selected for the programme last year. They underwent a stringent selection process, in which the HA's CEO and chairman, some of the HA's board members and Mr Rossiter actively participated.
"Most of these candidates were nominated by the hospitals they work for, while 10 per cent applied of their own accord," he explains. The authority makes use of a multi-input "360-degree assessment" approach and various interview techniques to review applicants' skills and suitability.
In addition to classroom training on general leadership skills and coaching, the programme also incorporates half-day visits to other organisations to meet with their leadership teams.
At one such meeting, Ocean Park chairman Allan Zeman and chief executive officer Tom Mehrmann shared some of their leadership and management insights with candidates.
Developing leaders
Potential executive leaders are given "stretch assignments", major projects that push them beyond their normal comfort zones, helping them to pick up new skills. One such assignment required two candidates to prepare a new vision, mission and value (VMV) statement for the authority over several months.
The outcome was so successful that the HA is extending the programme through a one-year HA leadership pipeline programme to include 50 more potential leaders. The key difference between the two programmes is that the HA leadership pipeline will focus less on coaching and more on building leadership skills.
The authority is also about to launch a new "management 101" programme to train future managers on core management skills. About 300 potential managers are expected to sign up.
"To facilitate mutual understanding, we spearheaded a 'learning contract' initiative between candidates and their supervisors. Progress is closely monitored by their mentors and coaches," Mr Rossiter notes.
HA's top management is passionate about its succession management. "Last week, our chief executive, Shane Solomon, attended our leadership pipeline programme and ended up spending three hours there," Mr Rossiter says.
In line with its succession management principles, the authority recently created new executive development positions to allow aspiring senior leaders to work in new roles and learn the different aspects of executive leadership. To further enhance the overall learning environment, all staff have access to a wide range of e-learning programmes including language courses like Mandarin and English.
One of the HA's aims is to keep staff happy, Mr Rossiter stresses. He remarks, "To achieve this, the senior team is focusing more on listening to their voices. We also adopt a more holistic approach in promoting staff wellbeing, for example, by organising a wider range of leisure and social activities like swimming competitions, basketball tournaments and Tai Chi classes."

Five skeletons have been unearthed at a late-Roman Villa in north Dorset.
It's thought the remains, which date back to the mid-4th century, could belong to three generations of the same family who owned the villa.
The skeletons of two adult males, two adult females and one elderly female were discovered at the farm, which is currently being excavated as part of the Durotriges Big Dig project.
Miles Russell, senior lecturer in archaeology at Bournemouth University and one of the archaeologists leading the dig, said: "The discovery is of great significance as it is the only time where evidence of a villa and the villa's occupants have been found in the same location in Britain.

QUADE Cooper was so clueless about the Waratahs flyhalf he is likely to face on Saturday, he had to google "Ben Volavola" and study trial footage of the 22-year-old rookie.
With Berrick Barnes set to miss the derby between the Reds and Waratahs, coach Michael Cheika will have to turn to Volavola or the inexperienced Bernard Foley, who is struggling with an ankle injury.
If Foley, who did not train on Monday, passes a late fitness test, he will play, but Volavola has trial runs on the board. Foley has 14 Super Rugby caps to his name while Volavola has none.
Cooper said the Waratahs playmaker was a mystery the Reds would have to study hard to solve.
"No matter who they put out on the field they will be a threat," Cooper said.
"We just have to worry about ourselves and prepare for either option.
"From looking at tapes, that new young bloke (Volavola) looks like a talented player.
"I saw a story from the paper on him and he seems pretty confident too." Volavola said he wanted to mark Cooper, and it would be "interesting" if he played against him.
Volavola has been a standout in Sydney club rugby and represented Australia at the 2011 junior world championships in Italy alongside Waratahs and Wallabies flanker Michael Hooper.
Play FoxSports Fantasy Super Rugby for a chance to win $10,000
Reds No.6 Ed Quirk was also in that team, and will provide the Reds with information on his abilities and weaknesses.
Volavola was the Waratahs flyhalf in their narrow loss to the Crusaders last week, and performed well against All Blacks star Dan Carter. The Waratahs' other debutant at Suncorp Stadium will be Israel Folau.
Reds winger Digby Ioane threw down a challenge to code-hopper Folau, stating he hoped the rugby rookie played opposite him this Saturday night and not at fullback.
Folau will make the Waratahs' starting team for their first match of the season despite playing only three rugby games in his entire life.
While he ran at fullback at training on Monday, it is understood Folau could spend the majority of the Suncorp Stadium clash on the wing.
It is a prospect the affable Reds winger relishes.
"Of course I want to," Ioane said when asked if he hoped to mark Folau.
"I'm one of those blokes who likes the challenge.
"I like to challenge the best wingers in the world, like Bryan Habana and Israel Folau.
"I'm from Melbourne and I'm a big fan of the Melbourne Storm (Folau's former club).
"He's done well, to be honest. He can always beat the man one-on-one.
"It's a good chance for him to show what he's got."

Post in the Introduce Yourself section of the boards and you will be given links to many guides that will answer your questions and help you out.
To start you out, check the Softmod Any Wii guide in my signature.
just a yes/no please
if possible
I gave you the means to find the answer for yourself. If you don't like it, there are other sites out there that can give you other means to find your answers that you can ignore.
to be honest... i've learnt how to mod xbox and 360's
and i dont own a wii... but was thinking of getting one
so just wanted a quick simple answer, rather then reading a whole guide(which i normally would)... before buying one
i dont see why you cant just say... i will not be modding without reading in the furture.. just wanted to know for now
For those in IRC who I give the link to softmod guide to, it comes with these requirements:
So, this does two things, answers your question that you seem to be to uppity to read the first paragraph, wasting my time to save your prescious time, and tells me that you lack one of the requirements, since you can't even open a link.Quote:

This paper introduces a generalization of cellular automata in which each celi is a tape-bounded Turing machine rather than a finite-state machine. Fast algorithms are given for performing various basic image processing tasks by such automata. It is suggested that this model of parallel computation is a very suitable one for studying the advantages of parallelism in this domain.

G4's evolution into the Esquire Network became that much easier when Adam Sessler parted ways with the network. He had hosted X-Play since its beginnings as GameSpot TV in 1998. The cable channel had long abandoned any real pretense of being "TV for gamers." X-Play and Attack of the Show were the only remnants of that culture. Industry rumors about NBC Universal's new plan for the channel were swirling for a while. Personalities including Sessler and AOTS' Kevin Pereira saw the way things were headed and moved on. The former X-Play host didn't comment on the negotiations but there were multiple reports of a contract dispute.
A games journalist with Sessler's experience wasn't going to be out of work long. In November 2012 Sessler landed at Revision3, a digital video network owned by Discovery Communications. While G4 programming execs struggled with the network's identity, online sources quickly moved to fill the void. It makes sense that one of TV's biggest names in games news would find his new home at such an outlet. One of Revision3's founders is David Prager, a former producer for G4.
Sessler's involvement is already paying big dividends for Revision3. The special interest network has formed a partnership with Microsoft. Revision3 will broadcast over Xbox Live during the 2013 Consumer Electronics Show. Since Sessler is still a relatively new hire, a lot of people who watched him on TV will just be finding out about his new gig. Microsoft has used G4's familiar faces to bring in viewers before. Former G4 hosts Tina Wood and Laura Foy have also done videos for Xbox Live.

MacNaughton is the forty-third highest peak in the Adirondacks but is not one of the original 46 as defined by the ADK 46ers. It was the one peak that was raised to 4000 feet by the 1953 USGS map. Actually, it is about as close as one can come to being a 4000 ft as if one take the highest contour on this metric map and convert it over to feet it is actually less that 4000. The peak is actually higher than that contour and a GPS reading from the peak does bounce between 3990 and 4040 feet peak which to me means it is 4000+. There is a spot height on the peak as well that is below 4000 but this is on the lower of the two peaks.
That aside the access to the peak is to say in no uncertain terms is brutal. There is no heardpath, per say, and the area is covered with blowdown which has only gotten worse since Hurricane Floyd in 1998. Since it is not one of the 46 I can't see the 46ers, DEC AMC of anyone doing any work on it either.
As there is no clear heardpath I can only give you my suggested route, which is to head into Wallface Ponds and then from the middle pond head in on a SE compass line until the summit ridge is met. There is not much to see on top but one can see the Santanoni Mountains and the backside of Algonquin and Iroquois and Marshal since the recent blowdown has cleared the view. There was a summit register but I imagine the 46ers or DEC has taken it down and replaced it with a sign.
It is a rough climb perhaps the hardest of any of the 4000+ because of the bushwhack, but the seclusion and beauty of Wallface Ponds make it quite worthwhile. This is the one climb that truly requires map and compass skills since it is quite easy to go off course in this area.
Note: On some USGS maps this peak is incorrectly named Wallface Peak which is quite near it and forms the dramatic wall overlooking Indian Pass.
Getting There
The best way to get to Wallface Ponds is to head in from Adirondack Loj since the trail is easy and the parking is good.
One can also approach from almost anywhere else in the park but the walk in is greater.
Red Tape
No permits as of yet but one has to pay for parking at the Loj and make sure you sign in and out of the trail log. As well large groups 10+ will require a permit.
As of June 30th, 2001 all parties regardless of size in the Eastern Zone (High Peaks) of the Park must fill in and possess a self-issuing "trip ticket," which may be obtained at the trailhead. People have been fined and turned around for not having one and at the more popular trailheads the Ranger on duty will not let you pass without one. This can cause some delays in getting onto the trail.
When To Climb
Winter might be the easiest time since the normal snow cover will bury the blowdown.
General rules for the Adirondacks
1) No Camping above 4,000 feet
2) No camping withing 150 feet of a stream or other water source except at a designated campsite.
3) No soap or washing withing 150 feet of water
4) Pack it in Pack it out is the rule for garbage
5) Only dead and down wood can be used for fires and set in a proper fire pit. ( local etiquette is to use a stove and not a fire)

What's in a Name
MacNaughton is name for James MacNaughton, the grandson of Archibald McIntyre of Adirondack Iron Works fame.
MacNaughton was the last private owner of Mt. Marcy. I believe he sold it to the State of New York early in the 20th centenary for 1$.

Is Movik Networks the Next Starent? A Chat with Highland VC Sean Dalton
(Page 2 of 2)
did, and another office in the U.K. as it goes after the international market for mobile data delivery. What's more, there are some parallels with the telecom industry in the early 2000s, with carriers all moving from 3G to 4G wireless systems and trying to upgrade their data services.
All of this fits with Dalton's, and Highland's, main investment themes—especially what global can do for local innovation. "Entrepreneurialism is a worldwide opportunity," Dalton says. "In order to invest effectively in the U.S., you need to know what's going on in other geographies." And in Starent's case, creating real value abroad was crucial. "A huge part of Starent's success is that India was developing a big part of the product, not just [quality assurance]," Dalton says.
Highland has a separate China-focused team that has made eight deals in the past seven years, including investing in Beijing-based Web firm Qihoo 360 (NYSE: QIHU). In Europe, Highland also has been involved in about 10 deals, mostly growth-stage investments, with companies such as PhotoBox (sort of the Shutterfly or CafePress of Europe), Wooga (like Zynga), and Spartoo (like Zappos).
Of course, we provincial types are most familiar with Highland's Boston-area investments—in companies like Gemvara, SCVNGR, Session M, Kyruus, PerkStreet Financial, Heartland Robotics, and, yes, Movik Networks.
So I asked Dalton how the firm keeps its focus while being spread over so many geographies, sectors, and stages. Like others, Highland has developed a thesis around "how to scale a venture firm," he says. One key component is consistent decision making. What he means is that "every decision is made as a firm, but from the entrepreneurs' point of view, they are dealing with decision-makers in local areas," he says.
Another part of the venture strategy is how each deal fits within the overall framework of Highland's investments. "We don't worry about [finding] the greatest opportunity in Europe or China," Dalton says. It comes down to whether a deal is a great venture opportunity for Highland, he says, and that boils down to an assessment of the management team and the market. Not that everyone agrees on what's a good investment. "Our best deals are the most controversial," he says, pointing to Starent, Vistaprint, and Qihoo as examples of investments that spurred lots of internal debate.
As for his firm's biggest failures, Dalton points to Amp'd Mobile, a California startup that flamed out in 2007 after raising more than $300 million in venture capital. "Ultimately it was VCs losing their mind," and the company not executing the "basics of blocking and tackling" and not investing in the right people, Dalton says.
But back to Movik Networks—which, of course, is looking at a very different mobile landscape compared to what Starent saw 10 years ago. Mobile data networks are well established now. But some of the key challenges are that the average revenue per mobile subscriber is down, while data infrastructure costs are going up. "The question is how to ensure mobile [operators] can still be profitable while still making investments," Dalton says.
Answering that question will require a truly global perspective—one that Movik is looking to build on as it prepares to demo its technology at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona next week. And yes, the world will be watching.

I'm Shay, and I've just finished my second quilt in a year. Prior, the last quilt I made was 15 years ago. or something. (sigh... that sounds SO long ago).
I've managed to get my roommate into quilting as well, she's working on quilt #2. We'll be moving to a new and larger house soon, with a place for a crafting studio. I am... thrilled doesn't cover it!
Anyway. I live in Fort Worth, TX. When I am not quilting, I do other crafts and do renaissance faires.

Hi Mike, I read you did repad a Superba II soprano, is that right?
I have one as well which I might repad and I was wondering which set of pads did you buy and where, if you have exact details about measures.
I was comparing them with my JK SX90 but they seem to be a bit different so I wanted to ask you before buying wrong pads.

Straujuma to become Latvia's first woman prime minister
Laimdota Straujuma is set to become Latvia's first woman prime minster.
Straujuma (62) is to replace Valdis Dombrovskis, who stepped down after a deadly supermarket roof collapse in a suburb of the capital Riga in November.
Latvia's agriculture minister since 2011, Straujuma impressed with her negotiating skills to press for a better European Union deal for her country's farmers.
Dombrovskis remains as caretaker premier pending the formation of the new government, which is expected to take two to three weeks.
The new administration will rule until scheduled elections in October.
"I am confident that this centre-right coalition can work effectively," Straujuma told reporters in Riga.
Dombrovskis, a 42-year-old trained physicist respected for his squeaky clean politics, resigned on November 27 over the catastrophic collapse of a supermarket roof in Riga which killed 54 people.
He was the longest serving premier since Latvia gained independence from the Soviet Union in 1991.
Baltic state
Latvia, a largely rural Baltic state with a population of two-million, became an EU member state in 2004.
This year it became the 18th EU country to adopt the euro as its currency.
Straumjuma, who was previously an economist and civil servant, has up to now served as a non-partisan politician.
On Sunday, though, she was made a member of the liberal-conservative Unity party in order to become their official nominee.
At her Riga news conference she was flanked by representatives of four political parties which supported her candidacy as prime minister in principle.
Funding and education
Straujuma said her priorities heading the new government would be using EU funds effectively, and improving education.
"It is necessary to maintain stability for the next nine months," she said.
Having received presidential backing, Straujuma will now hold talks with political parties represented in parliament.
The coalition of four parties, plus independent lawmakers, which she outlined on Monday would give her control of 66 out of the 100 seats in the Latvian parliament or Saeima.
Though no woman has ever headed a government in Latvia, Vaira Vike-Freiberga held the presidency for two consecutive terms from 1999 to 2007 and is widely regarded as one of the country's best presidents. – Sapa-AFP. .

7 Tips for Buying a Used Harley Davidson Motorcycle
Posted Thursday, Jan 3, 2008 by
The great thing about buying a used Harley Davidson-is that no one cares that it's used. A used Harley ranks right up there alongside a new one, and finding a used one isn't really that difficult at all.
Some great places to look are the classifieds published in newspapers, bulletin boards, magazines, and the internet and so on. You'll find a lot private sellers and buyers looking in these venues.
Going straight for the jugular is not a bad idea either. You can go straight to the Harley Davidson Dealer and find a good deal. The benefits are obvious; you can look for a host of models such as Cruisers, Softails, Dyna, V-Rod, and Buell to name a few.
Some Great Buying Tips:
1. Do your Homework
A Harley is a great buy, but there are a lot of Harleys on the market, and having an idea of what you want up front will help you thread through a lot red tape. Doing your homework can help you get your priorities straight. Think in terms of where you'll be riding, and how often.
2. Inspect Everything
When you find the model that fits your eye, back up and take a moment to get your wits together. Just because someone is selling a Harley, it doesn't mean the bike is in the best of health. Take heed of the old saying, "let the buyer be aware". Listen to the sound of the Harley especially; it'll speak volumes about the health of the Harley.
3. Take the Harley for a Spin
Take the Harley for a cruise, even if you have to take the seller with you. This will be the perfect opportunity to check out the brakes, horn, gears, indicators etc. Take the Harley over a few bumps in the road. This will let you know up front how it performs on lumpy pavement. Don't make any hasty decisions. There will be plenty of time to snatch the perfect deal.
4. Check the Credentials
Make sure you verify the credentials. You'll want to make sure all the paperwork is up to date, and that the individual selling the bike is on the up and up. The last thing you want is a lemon in the shape of a Harley Davidson.
If you love riding or repairing motorcycles, why not get the motorcycle classroom training that can help land you a job in the Motorcycle Technology Field. Request our WyoTech DVD today.

Startup Weekend is coming back to Beer-Sheva!
Hi all, After the forced break we had to take in the middle of the Beer-Sheva Startup weekend event, we […]
Startup Weekend is a global network of passionate leaders and entrepreneurs on a mission to inspire, educate, and empower individuals, teams and communities. Come share ideas, form teams, and launch startups.Startup Weekend Global Site
The professional and personal challenges, the high and lows, the failures and the success?
Startup Weekend is a global grassroots movement of active and empowered entrepreneurs who are learning the basics of founding startups and launching successful ventures. It is the largest community of passionate entrepreneurs with over 1800 past events in 120 countries around the world in 2014.
The non-profit organization is headquartered in Seattle, Washington but Startup Weekend organizers and facilitators can be found in over 200 cities around the world. From Mongolia to South Africa to London to Brazil, people around the globe are coming together for weekend long workshops to pitch ideas, form teams, and start companies.
All Startup Weekend events follow the same basic model: anyone is welcome to pitch their startup idea and receive feedback from their peers. Teams organically form around the top ideas (as determined by popular vote) and then it's a 54 hour frenzy of business model creation, coding, designing, and market validation. The weekends culminate with presentations in front of local entrepreneurial leaders with another opportunity for critical feedback.
Whether entrepreneurs found companies, find a cofounder, meet someone new, or learn a skill far outside their usual 9-to-5, everyone is guaranteed to leave the event better prepared to navigate the chaotic but fun world of startups. If you want to put yourself in the shoes of an entrepreneur, register now for the best weekend of your life!
After the forced break we had to take in the middle of the Beer-Sheva Startup weekend event, we are happy to announce that we are back to finish the great event!
When? Where?
On December 6-7 (Thursday-Friday) at 8:30 we will join forces again in "Tapuach" Center which is located in the corner of Juda HaLevi and Shaul Hamelech Streets, in Beer-Sheva.
What is the plan?
we stopped the event after the 10 ideas were chosen, so we will pick it up on the same stage. Please make sure that all the groups are meeting again and starting to work according to the list :
Start weekend – what is it? A quick reminder
For those of you who are unfamiliar with Startup Weekend, it is a 54-hour Hackathon that is being held in over hundreds of different cities throughout the world. In Israel, we usually start it on Wednesday and finish on Friday. In the beginning of each event, every entrepreneur gets to pitch his idea in front of all the other entrepreneurs, and after a short voting process, the audience picks the best ideas of the bunch and all the entrepreneurs divide themselves into teams and start a 50-hours Hackathon in order to make their project into something real.
Beyond great good, drinks and an awesome T-Shirt, The experience includes mentoring from dozens of experienced entrepreneurs who share with us their road to success, failure and life stories. At the end of each event, each one of teams should present their project in front of an expert judge's panel and the first place winner would get a services package worth thousands of dollars, just to help them make their project into a real-life kicking-ass startup.
We have great support from the local scene!
We are planning to continue with over 100 entrepreneurs, developers, designers and mentors who signed up for the event and the awesome support from local municipal authorities such as the city of Beer-Sheva, the municipal business development company "7×7" (7 is Sheva in Hebrew) and the ministry for the Negev development alongside with huge support from the industry by companies : EMC (That has its own innovation center in Beer-Sheva), Sandisk, Incubit, APM Law Firm, NegevCo., Gav-Yam (A company that is in charge of building Beer-Sheva's Hi-Tech Park), Ness Technologies, Paris Region, WMG and Negev Jobs.
Following them, the local universities and colleges will again join us in and together we will do our best to have a winning products.
If you have more friends who want to join the teams on the second and third days, just send them to the registration page, where they can find a discounted ticket.
Looking forward to seeing you in Beer- Sheva.

FMB World Tour 2012 presents the first ever Amateur Champions
Dec 6, 2012 at 9:41
FMB World Tour
The debut of the FMB World Tour Amateur rankings was a great success! For the first time in 2012, AM riders were divided into a North American and European AM ranking. Patrick Leitner (AUT) and Nick Tingren (CAN) became the first FMB World Tour AM Champions! FMB World Tour partner - GoPro, is happy to award both podiums with their newest GoPro Hero 3 cameras!
North American AM ranking
1st : Nick Tingren (CAN) : 372.20 pts
2nd : Grant Schnell (USA) : 352.80 pts
3rd : Shane McKenzie (USA) : 302.60 pts
European AM Ranking
1st : Patrick Leitner (AUT) : 1020.50 pts
2nd : Urs Reinosch (GER) : 735.50 pts
3rd : Steffen Graf (GER) : 610.20 pts
This year the FMB World Tour introduced an Amateur ranking to offer a platform for talented riders to progress and gain high-level competition experience. AM and Pro riders are distinguished by their FMB World Tour rider licence. AM licences are designed to introduce young riders into the competitive world of mountain biking. They are accessible to anyone with a bike, a helmet and the drive to compete! AM riders can climb the AM ranking by scoring points at Bronze and Silver events. Thanks to GoPro, their efforts and competitiveness are well rewarded – Both overall first place riders receive the brand new and awesome GoPro Hero 3 Black edition. Second and third place riders are awarded the GoPro Hero 3 Silver edition. For AM riders this is great news – with their new GoPro camera they will be able to capture unique shots and create stunning video edits. We hope that this additional material will help AM riders to further develop their riding career.
Succeeding as an AM rider is a blend of sick skills and smart tactics. Canadian rider Nick Tingren clinched the title with high scores from the Silver event Ranchstyle and the Bronze event Wam Bam Dirt Jam. Nick who is completely stoked about his win told us: "It was really rad to be a part of the FMB World Tour this year! I met tons of cool people and got to ride in lots of cool places, I'll definitely be back in 2013". Next to Nick in second place is Grant Schnell, who finished in the top ten at the first ever Bearclaw Invitational AM competition. Rounding up the podium in third place is Shane McKenzie with a solid season. Freeriding is a highly competitive sport in North America so finishing on the podium is a great result for these talented riders.
Patrick Leitner from Vienna, Austria won the European AM ranking. He told us: "Man, I'm so happy to finish the European AM tour in first place, but to be honest, I´m even more pumped to be in the top 30 of the FMB World Tour overall ranking! Winning the Symphony Jam Session in Wagrain was pretty awesome as well. For 2013, my goal is to make the top 20 in the FMB World Tour and to compete as a Pro rider." Urs Reinosch from Germany achieved second place in the European AM ranking. Urs had his highlight at Treeline Dreck Attack, finishing ahead of the crowd in first. The last spot on the podium goes to Steffen Graf, also from Germany. He had solid appearances, highlighted with a respectable 10th place at Dakine Airstrike.
Huge congratulations go out to the podiums of both AM rankings – we hope to see them competing next year as well as seeing all the fantastic riding footage taken with their new GoPro Hero 3 cameras! The AM ranking is a great stepping stone to later compete with the Pro's in the FMB World Tour overall ranking. Rider registrations for the FMB World Tour 2013 open soon on the FMB World Tour

The deal will give Intel full control over the assets and intellectual property of NetEffect, which specialises in adaptors for networking systems.
The company will retain all of its staff and continue to operate out of its Texas headquarters.
NetEffect's products enable servers to link with 1Gb and 10Gb Ethernet connections. The company also produces iWARP, an Ethernet system designed as an alternative to Infiniband networks.
Intel plans to use the acquisition to kickstart a line of network interface cards for servers and cluster systems.
"NetEffect's role as a data communications solution provider and the company's technology will enhance Intel's current Ethernet efforts," said Tom Swinford, general manager of Intel's LAN Access Division.
"The combination of Intel and NetEffect technology will allow Intel to address our customers' most important 10Gb Ethernet needs, including server virtualisation, convergence of network and storage traffic, and server compute clusters."
Intel to buy NetEffect for US$8m

The Witcher 2 - Retrospective @ Eurogamer
While I think The Witcher 2 hasn't been out long enough to have a retrospective it seems Eurogamer thinks the opposite. So visit this link for the article.
In The Witcher 2, the choices are grander, more closely tied to the overarching narrative and more obviously sign-posted. There's little room for the neutrality of the first game, instead you're explicitly forced to pick a side; to kill a tyrant or save a damsel; to stay the hand that would kill a king or let it swing regardless. It's a sign of CD Projekt's grander ambition for its sequel, but it's a shame that the notion of neutrality fell by the wayside, especially when the first game had invested time and effort in establishing that it was the true path of The Witcher to stand outside of society's squabbles.
Despite this, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings remains one of the best examples of a game with a strong lead character and focused narrative that still allows you to tell your own story and shape your experience. The Witcher 2's own story is one of evolution and just as the world of the Witcher is in a constant state of flux, so too was the game during its first year in the wild as it underwent its transformation.
It's one of the few tales featuring Geralt of Rivia to have a happy ending.

Super cool design.
I've had some trouble getting it to turn out using a Replicator 2. I tried it the first time on high quality with rafts and supports, but the model bonded with the raft and couldn't be removed. Tried again on medium with only supports, but I had trouble removing all of the supports on the inside of the case and it didn't fit the phone.
Any tips/tricks on how to position the model on the build platform or what settings to use? I'm currently placing the back of the case flat on the middle of the build platform.
I'm determined to get it to work because it's fantastically awesome. ;-)
I've been having similar problems! To be fair, I can't print any cases on the Rep 2 without failing. Do you know what it means when it's printing the sides of the cases and suddenly stops extruding? I'm thinking either flow rate is too high and it gets jammed or feed rate is too fast.
Do you have successful settings for more standard iPhone cases?
I used Shapeways to Print my case. Ben Rockhold had to scale Up to 101%.
What I would do is:
1) Measure the from the inside on one side to the other side.
2) Measure the out side of your Phone
3) Divide #1 into #2: #1/#2=Scale%
I have to do this with some of my files that I print.
As for the rafts. I don't know what to tell you. I have access to a Stratasys Mojo printer and have a soluble support material.
Ah, gotchya. I'll try scaling it a little bit, and do a couple more test runs. I'll put up another post if I find a configuration that works well for the MakerBot.
Thanks for the fast reply.
I printed one! I had to scale it up to 101% to fit my phone, and printed with support material to hold the tabs up. I think it worked great!
Have you considered sharing the original files? I'd like to make some small changes.
This is really cool!

Monster Hunter 4 will allow players to customize their main Felyne Comrade. Weekly Famitsu reveals players can create their Felyne partner's eyes, ears, and fur.
On quests, you'll be able to take a sub Felyne in addition to your main Felyne. Depending on which sub Felyne you choose, your union technique will change.
Felynes can cling to monsters and snatch away their freedom. By clinging and hitting, they can also drop enemies from out of the sky.
Famitsu this week also introduces three returning monsters: the Fire Wybern Rathian, the Bird Wyvern Genodrome, and the Pelagus Congalala.
Thanks, Tale Tale Source.

Thank you!
The lack of anything Blue Squadron and no regular tie baffled me too....pure repaints would have sufficed. Hopefully they make the effort in the near future.
Agreed on the battle packs, they were always a great way to get unique, or older and desirable items back on the shelves.
Hoth - Luke and Han, both with taun tauns, probe droid and crash site (repaint the sarlaac opening from the skiff pack).
Echo Base 1 - FX-7, 2-1b, Bacta tank, recovery bed with Luke ("phantom of the opera mask"), Luke in just the red flight suit without gear.
Echo base 2 - Consoles (from the Ultra set), Wampa holding cell (deleted scene), transport speeder (essentially a rolling box with car lights)
Rebel forces - Snow trench with attaching turrets, Hoth rebel (with the unique backpack seen running towards the 1st downed at-at)
Complement any of these with the 2010 snowspeeder, now with red markings.
To further the point of battle damage, I loved the Force Unleashed Vader (worst day ever disguise). Figures like Endor Leia, something as small as the blaster wound on her shoulder or the bandaged arm thereafter would be cool for a battle pack. K2-SO with sculpted blaster hits, circular console, vault door and Cassian in Imperial officer disguise = sold.
A retooled y-wing, perhaps with blast off nacelles similar to the solar panel feature of the tie fighters. Since the latter half of it may not withstand any real play, keep it attached with a hinge or strong cords (think vintage Micro World x-wing and tie battle damage features).
Definitely new mini-rigs too. My ideas thus far were all based on alterations to mostly existing toys. Ideas for new toys are forthcoming.
Enjoying this creativity of this thread!

I've been blocked a lot!! It's so stupid.. cause I don't even care.. It's weird to me when people take online general comments personally and seriously... And even more weird when they are fucking old grown people. It's too weird.
But here's the thing... Many of these easily offended people get but hurt by my lovely comments😁😛!! So they reply back and then bOoM!! Block me!! 😯!! Haha it's so lame.. At first I was like okay whatever.. Lame people usually it's ignorant people who annoy me with their lack of intelligence so I say something that makes thems super angry 😛!! Oops!! So I figured if they comment back and block, it's probably because this type of thing bothers them... Soooo I started doing it to them too😁😁!! I never cared to block anyone at all... But now I do it just to tick the. Off more cause it makes them angry... It's so pathetic... 😂😂😂😁😁!!
He same with people who get so mad and cry about down votes... 😖!! I dislike dumb people !! 🙈🙉🙊!!!31|21|0

Yes, I do believe that I make very logical, sound and rational comments, opinion. I wouldn't say arguments exactly because I stay away from arguments. I only express myself and it's up to the other person to agree/disagree or accept what I am saying or not.
Yes, because of this I am sure many people dislike me here on GAG but as I always say I don't care about that.10|10|0
