Last weekend I bumped into a friend in downtown Princeton and we got to talking about co-working spaces. My friend, Susan, actually brought up the topic, asking if I knew anyone who owned a co-working space. As it turns out, I do, so that's what we talked about; although the more we talked the more I questioned her about the wider co-working industry.
During our conversation Susan mentioned she was busy setting up a new co-working space. A building owner in her town was willing to reconstruct his building's interior to suite her co-working space blueprint. But as she mentioned design it got me thinking about co-working and, above all, I wondered how people make a profit from it. There had to be more to it than just opening a space and selecting the right software package to manage the space.
In the last fifteen years co-working spaces have cropped up in countries all around the globe and especially in cities all over the developed world. But how do these spaces succeed. Now that they are becoming better known and widely used, which co-working sites make money and which ones don't. I started looking for answers and found there are a few basic categories of co-working spaces and that a co-working business in any of these categories is capable of being successful if the owner/manager matches the category to his or her particular market's needs.
As I thought about my friend opening up a co-working space and read through dozens of articles about co-working spaces here are the four categories I found. There are curated spaces, dedicated spaces, enhanced spaces and cool spaces. Let's get into it.
Curated Spaces Get Results
In our newly evolving work force there are many more independent contractors than there were just ten or fifteen years ago and these independent contractors seek more than just an office to work in. They are looking for relationships that can grow in directions they would not have access to without other people. The right combination of people with the right contacts among them can generate a great deal more work than any of them could generate independently. One technical expert brings in another and then another and they all vouch for each other. But how does a small group of free agent contractors come together in the first place? And how do they get to know each other?
A discerning owner of a co-working space can be the catalyst that bring together a covey of energetic, professional experts. It can be a little like the French salons of the eighteenth and nineteenth century. This is a bit of a reach, but the space manager is the madam of the room carefully looking to bring together professionals who will share and support one another.
It's a great way to fill a co-working location and the space manger serves as the initial scrutiny of integrity, professionalism, contacts, dependability and general value to a larger group of professionals. That also means the manager has to turn down people who don't match the spaces' needs. And, the manager has to help keep the resident companies focused on productive work, which means the space's amenities all have to work efficiently. There's money in owning a co-working space where the manager becomes that central impresario.
Why You Should Focus On Just One Type
Another way of making money with co-working space is by dedicating the space to a particular industry or a particular part of the workforce. When Regus originally opened their spaces they were looking for traveling businessmen and businesswomen. They were, at first, dedicate co-working spaces for travelers. There have been co-working spaces dedicated to women and to non-profits, but most often there's money in dedicating a co-working space to a particular industry. The friend that I knew who already managed a co-working space, when Susan approached me about co working, has a dedicated space that deals with the public relations industry. Everyone who rents office space and or use of her space is involved in PR. Other spaces deal with design, technology and food. The money works when the space is carefully matched with a local community or is located in a city large enough to support one of these specialized spaces.
The challenge for this strategy is to build a culture among subscribing members that allows each member to participate but also that protects their proprietary projects and professional secrets. To that end these co-working spaces often use thumbnail security systems for internal offices and also wipe data and browsing histories off of shared computers and equipment every time someone new sits down to use the electronics.
Get Ahead Faster With Extra Features
Yet another way of profitably marketing co-working space is to offer an enhanced working environment. This is not about being interesting or cool, it's about offering specialized amenities like machinery, laboratory equipment, or a specialized library, or other equipment that would be prohibitively expensive for a small office to finance, but which can be supported by a larger group of users, such as at a co-working space. For instance if a co-working space in a community that has lots of scientists offers use of their electron microscope as part of the available features in their co-working space, that would be an enhanced co-working space. Use of the microscope would be by appointment and at no extra fee.
The key to success with this strategy is to know the work force in a particular locality and know their work needs. Offering those needs at a rental price point that allows amortizing the special equipment purchases over a large group is what makes it work. The co-working space manager has to know the area of expertise of these workers and may even have previously participated in that type of work.
What Exactly Is The Cool Factor?
Finally, we come to the most commonly known strategy of co-working spaces and that is, of course, just offering a very cool working environment. Co-working spaces have gotten a lot of media attention for these cool spaces with their fancy coffee machines, gym workout equipment, pool tables, leather couches, musical equipment and a whole lot of other life-style paraphernalia. The spaces are often designed with attractive colors, fabrics and materials that make them uniquely a work and home cross bread – maybe something like a clubhouse environment.
But don't be fooled by the cool strategy's visual trappings, that is only part of the strategy. The cool features offer the public relations come on and are magnetic for workers, but the money is in the real estate arrangement. Most of these cool co-working spaces offer many small private offices. The key to financial success is to lease out densely occupied floor space – many offices with low square footage is critical to making the strategy work.
Often these spaces are reworked commercial office spaces that a commercial realtor was no longer able to rent out at workable prices. By allowing an entrepreneur to step in and convert the space to a more densely packed co-working space the new arrangement makes a bad situation work – at least for awhile. The risk is that if the economy turns down and workers don't renew their co-working space memberships then the whole strategy falls apart, leaving the co-working entrepreneur on the hook for monthly rent to the original space owner.
Well there you have it, four strategies that co-working space managers and owners are using to profit in the new working environment of the twenty-first century. Look for new spaces to open near you and try to identify what strategy they are using.

Disable jack detection and device disconnected?
Hi there.
I decided to test out Windows 7 and take it for a testrun and until now I have noticed a few issues I have let passes but this one takes the cake.
My jack detection is a little bit out so if the cable moves in a certain direction, it will detect it as the jack being disconnected and connected again with the slightest movement.
This was no problem with XP, it would still stream out audio throught the audio jack even if it detected that the jack was disconnected or not. In Windows 7, not so much.
If the jack port is not properly sending a message about it being connected, Windows 7 will disable it, shut down and disable every option for it until you connect it again. This is particle annoying when the motherboard itself has a broken jack detection and the only resolution is to buy a new motherboard.
In my previous case of the instant disconnected/connected, it will create an empty space of silence for like a 0.5 sec - 2 sec in the middle of the song.
What I was thinking is if it's possible to disable this behavior in any way?

Hi there.

My jack detection is a little bit out so if the cable moves in a certain direction, it will detect it as the jack being disconnected and connected again with the slightest movement.
What I was thinking is if it's possible to disable this behavior in any way?
Jonatan Nilsson
In my case I sprayed the 3.5mm speaker plug with a small amount of contact cleaner and worked in in/out of the speaker jack a few times.
Yes, WinXP ignored the auto-sensing and worked flawlessly. Win-7 has several new layers (of mostly cr@p) built into the audio system.
If your audio device is Realtek, there is at least one related parameter that I know of. Open the Realtek control panel. Right click on the simulated input/output jacks on the right hand side. If you see "connector retasking" select disable the auto pop-up dialog check box. There is also a small folder at the top right, open and select "Disable Front Panel Jack Detection" de-select the auto popup dialog.
Don't know why but this seemed to stabilize my system even though these are related to inputs.

With operations around the globe, Pall is not small. The company operates two businesses globally: Life Sciences and Industrial. The Life Sciences business group is focused on developing, manufacturing, and selling products to customers in the Medical, BioPharmaceuticals and Food & Beverage markets. The Industrial business group is focused on developing, – more... manufacturing and selling products to customers in the Process Technologies, Aerospace, and Microelectronics markets. In fiscal year 2012, the company reorganized its Industrial markets for greater efficiency. The Machinery and Equipment submarket and Energy and Water submarket were combined as the Process Technologies market.
Geographic Reach
The company has operations in Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand, Norway, the Philippines, Portugal, Russia, San Marino, Singapore, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, the UK, the US, and Vietnam.
Fiscal Analysis
Pall's total revenues increased by 6.1% in fiscal year 2012 thanks largely to a 7.3% increase in Total Life Sciences segment revenues due to the 12% increase in sales in the BioPharmaceuticals market, and a 0.3% rise in sales in the Food & Beverage market, where as sales in Medical market decreased 1.3% compared to fiscal year 2011.
Industrial segment sales increased by 7% reflecting growth in the Process Technologies and Aerospace markets, partly offset by a decline in the Microelectronics market. Process Technologies market reveneus grew by 9%, and Aerospace market sales by 12%. However, Microelectronics sales decreased by 4% due to a decline in semiconductor chip production.
Pall's net income grew by 1.2% thanks to higher revenues. Net earnings from continuing operations and net earnings from discontinued operations increased as foreign currency translation had a positive impact on earnings per share in FY 2012.
Pall's strategic plan calls for a focus on geographic expansion in high growth regions (Asia, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America) and on beefing up (through acquisitions and organic growth) its position in high-growth markets such as biotechnology, diagnostics, cell therapy, vaccine production, micro and macroelectronics, next-generation aircraft, energy and water.
Strengthening its expertise in the fluid management systems market in Latin America, in 2011 Pall acquired Engefiltro, its long-time Brazilian distribution partner. Engefiltro, primarily known for its filtration systems engineering capabilities, also has interests in the mining, oil and gas, chemical and petrochemical, power generation, food processing, and pharmaceutical industries.
Pall continued its shopping in late 2011 by acquiring California-based ForteBio, which develops analytical systems to speed up discovery and development of biotech drugs. Pall hopes that the technology platforms added with the acquisition will help its biopharmaceutical customers in getting their products to market on time.
To pay down debt, in 2012 the company sold its blood collection, filtration, and processing product lines to Massachusetts-based Haemonetics, a global healthcare company. Pall will also divest some blood media manufacturing assets to Haemonetics by 2016. – less

Russell Brand Katy Perry
February 15, 2012 by staff
Russell Brand Katy Perry, Angelina Jolie said Wednesday working as a director has rekindled her love for the film industry, even if it was something of a personal artistic rebellion.
Jolie told The Associated Press in Sarajevo that she was starting to feel "disheartened" and uninspired by her acting roles.
She knew she wanted to use film as a medium to deal with weighty matters, such as human rights abuses.
"We must remember to use this medium in a responsible way when we can," she said.
Jolie had several roles in action movies, like the one in Mr. and Mrs. Smith but with her new film, she felt she was making a difference.
Her directing debut "In the Land of Blood and Honey" is about the horrors of the war in Bosnia. The film, which has already been released in the U.S., follows what happens when the man becomes an army officer and the woman is held in a military prison camp where rape occurs.
Jolie said she hopes it will inspire viewers worldwide to "speak up" and push for intervention in places such as Syria, where a government crackdown has killed thousands in the past year.
This is why it makes her happy when people watch the film, get "frustrated with the lack of intervention and they immediately say 'Syria.'"
That's exactly what Jolie wanted.
"I wanted people across the world to watch this movie and say …'that is a family like mine, that is a mother like me. So when they see a headline that says a bomb went off in Aleppo they think of the characters in this film and they think they are related to them and they maybe feel that much more invested," she said.
What was not done during Bosnia's war, could be done now, Jolie believes. Her movie should raise awareness and make everybody who sees it "speak up" and "push … to aid these civilians, they are in such a horrible situation," she added.
"This film has taught me to love film again because I see what film can do and I see and I am re-inspired because I was not feeling very inspired as an actress. I was feeling very disheartened," she said.
Asked whether it was her artistic rebellion against the perceived ignorance of the world toward crimes against humanity, Jolie said: "Yes! I suppose it is."
"I came to this film not because I wanted to be a director, I came to this film because the more I researched, the more I learned, the more angry I got," Jolie said a day after she premiered her film in Sarajevo.

Does opening a contact and clicking the Link option let you link it up manually? I had to do this for a number of them that wouldn't map automatically.
That did it. Thanks!
I also had to link several (like 30-50 or so). But now i've noticed that when someone calls that's linked to their facebook/photo - it's really fuzzy. like it only synced pictures that were large enough for the thumbnails =/

Spanish firm Broseta Abogados has launched a Latin American alliance with counterparts in Colombia and Mexico as part of a plan to target investment flows in and out of the region.
The firm has founded the alliance alongside Colombia's Esguerra Barrera Arriaga and Mexican firm Cervantes Sainz, and is on the cusp of finalising deals with firms in Chile and Peru.
Broseta partner Julio Veloso, who has led the initiative, said he had been working to find alliance partners for three years. The decision to forge an alliance in Latin America came off the back of Broseta's decision to remain an independent firm while being able to offer clients an international network which was as integrated as possible.
"For us remaining independent is critical and we accepted from the beginning that the people we'd be talking to would feel the same way," said Veloso.
He added that Broseta wanted to work "very very closely" with its new allies, including having a Broseta lawyer on permanent secondment to Latin America.
Alliance talks in Chile and Peru are advanced, but not yet finalised, Veloso said. The firm also wants to add an Ecuadorian firm to the alliance. Meanwhile it has associations with firms in other Latin American countries, which over time may also join the alliance.
Veloso said Broseta wanted to make sure it was able to serve the growing number of Spanish small and medium-sized businesses moving into the Central and Latin American region, as well as those businesses from the continent looking at Europe.
All three founder members of the alliance are small firms. Broseta, with 13 partners, is the largest, while Cervantes Sainz has 10 partners and Esguerra Barrera eight.
The move comes just months after the largest European and Iberian firm, Garrigues, pulled out of its own Latin American alliance with a view to setting up its own offices in the region (13 May 2013).

{Book Review} Marathon Woman: Running the Race to Revolutionize Women's Sports by Kathrine Switzer
by Kathrine Switzer
Publisher: Carroll & Graf
Release: March 9th 2007
Genre: Non-Fiction- Adult: Running, memiors
How I got it: Bought it
Katherine Switzer ran the Boston Marathon in 1967 where she was attacked by one of the event's directors who wanted to eject her from the all-male race. She fought off the director and finished the race. From the childhood events that inspired her to winning the New York City Marathon in 1974, this liberally illustrated book details the struggles and achievements of a pioneering women in sports.
Review: This was an amazing book. I loved Ms Switzer story of how she began running and kept running all her life. She is an inspiration. Her dedication and devotion to getting women recognized not just in running but other sports is mind boggling. I found her time in Syracuse fascinating, living an hour north of the city. I was super impressed by her running those long distances in the dead of winter. Sorry you would never catch me out there.
Detailing the trials that she encountered during her running career, this book tells the untold story of the second woman to run the Boston Marathon. I found it interesting the myths surrounding women running when Ms Switzer started running. I couldn't wrap my mind around that people still believed things like a woman's ovaries would fall out if they ran farther than a few miles.
Ms Switzer's writing style was good, like talking with a friend. She shared her highs and lows, the pictures made the book offering a real feel to all the tales. I really enjoyed this book and found it inspiring.

Pillars of Life
by Joe Colling
Wisdom is present all the time.
Whether that person senses wisdom when it reveals itself, is dependent on their inner state; their thoughts. The mind is like a mirror and will reflect, into your life in the form of circumstances, whatever it is focused on be it base or beautiful. From the heights of one's cherished aspirations to the depths of one's unchastened, most base desires – Wisdom is always revealing and being revealed around us.
It calls aloud in the streets.
Wisdom is revealed knowledge and not something gained like academia. Wisdom is secret knowledge revealed to a person, thus is cannot be learned; only realized. This is because there are so many variations that make up individual human circumstances, to compare one with another would prove futile. Every person is shown wisdom at differing times in their individual life that is pertinent to their life; never another's.
When Wisdom touches a person,
he/she is lifted up and transfigured. He/she becomes a new being that has never existed before; has new aims and mental powers. He/she inhabits a new universe of thought in which to accomplish a new and glorious destiny. Wisdom guides a person. A wise person adapts him/herself to others and acts for their good, yet never violates the moral virtues or the principles of right conduct. Wisdom is always upright.
The foolish
cannot adapt him/herself to others because he/she acts for him/herself only, thus continually violating the moral virtues of right conduct. The understanding mind needs no external support. It stands alone; it is free because it stands on the firm ground of knowledge; not academia, but Wisdom which is realization through life experience; revealed knowledge from the creator. It moves through all minds and knows them. It has traveled with all spirits and knows their journeyings in joy and sorrow.

I can paint you a picture
In colors gay and bright
But my favorites are the ones
I make late at night
The tortured works of art that see into my soul
The ones that help me feel in control
The ones that help me cope with all that's inside
The ones that can help me say
Copyright © Shyla Contreras | Year Posted 2015
The ambient glow of the fireplace becomes hypnotic.
Home alone, always, without true love to snuggle me.
Each of many pains of night makes my mind neurotic.
Pathetic it may seem for a young and beautiful girl.
Alone again after years of searching; life becomes a whirl.
Incessant longing gnaws away at self-control.
Night brings its darkness to the weariness of my soul.
Satan takes a grip upon my sanity; I am no longer whole.
Oh, that I could find true love and live a life of joy.
Forever, I live searching, only to be someone's toy.
Night without you, my true love, is a lonely curse.
If only I could find you, whoever you are, wherever you are.
Grateful love, come; I beg you and quench my thirst.
Heaven is but a thought away…as is suicide.
Touch me with your warmth; Save me and let love abide.
Where is the dream that I dreamt as a child.
I never knew that the world could be so wild.
Today is just one step in eternity, but forever alone.
How can I face another day; I know not!
Over and over the thoughts circulate in my mind.
Utter self-destructions seeming the only solution.
Then, I fear the great and dreadful consequence.
To live eternity alone would be unbearable.
Reality visits at the break of dawn, briefly.
Underneath these fancy clothes lies a broken heart.
Each day takes me to a new horizon…until night.
Loneliness tortures me; at dark I am immobile.
Oh, the pains of night without true love destroy.
Vitality sinks into Satan's sullen ship; sips sorrows.
Everything seems lost, but I pray for true love, tomorrow.

Slowly my world shatters
Unravelling all around me
Inside my heart is
Cold, empty, broken
I have fallen apart completely
Drowning in the waves of sorrow
Everything I once was is swept away

Heavy-hearted beneath your bridge with tides drowning
Eccentric beyond repair and never learning your lesson
Relief found comfortable only when you're frowning
Somber ruefulness contingent on your severe depression
Addicted to any mind altering chemicals; lost not found
Dastardly and wicked like a cowardly lion and a thief
Nondescript and lacking the ability to stay earthbound
Embezzlement of your felicity was your only relief
Sedated from tranquilizers and subdued from persuasion
Suicide found alleviation and refrained from confrontation

I sit here feeling empty. Physically, I am in this world, mentally, gone. No one in this world, really knows what I feel inside. I lay shaking, pure confusion as I ask myself "should I do it?" Selfish me for not staying alive, no one hearing the painful screams and fearful cries. God please- can you hear me? The constant whys. Take me from this world, end my cries. The bottle of relief sits in front of me, staring me down. Take the pills and all the pain will go away. It will all be okay. I am unwanted. I am replaceable. I am unneeded. Thoughts running through my head screaming at me as I slowly open the bottle. 1..2..3.. I am free.

Life it is meant be more than an existince
I know our life is never meant to be perfect
Visiting a darkness where i know i can hide
I know there are options which I can take
Never giving into the nightmare which I live
God i hate living the way that i do it my fault
Sometimes I lay awake thinking of options
Until I suddenly wake up in middle of night
I wake up and face the world in which i live
Choosing to live the way in which i chosen
Ignoring the option in which can truly help
Deep down I truly hate myself for who I am
Existence it the life in which we live our life

Life it'what we make so we are often told
It is hard when you hide it in the darkness
Viewing it from your own tormented mind
Isolating yourself so that other don't know
Not allowing anyone to know who you are
Giving up on life makes it easy yes i did it
Sometime I do give a glimpse of who i am
Until my own mood darkness want to hide
I placed myself where that I felt the safest
Choosing the way I'm it wasn't meant to be
Ignoring the friends who are always there
Deep down i know there are things i regret
Existing it is like borrowed time it not living
Bang! The cartoonish noise echoes
Underneath those fluorescent
Lights. Everyone is silent, even the
Librarian, who is usually shhh-ing everyone
Even though the bullet did not touch me, it
Took me 6 feet under, where I could not
Suffer, could not remember watching you take your own life.

Shows what one smile can hide
One girl who thought her life, was
Full of joy and pride, she could go
Through life full of joy, pride and not
Smile her pain away.
She didn't know if she could stay,
She would pray every night for all
The tears and pain to go away, but
She thought cutting was the only way.
Then it got worse, she posted a picture
On Facebook the comments were rolling
In saying your worthless you don't fit in
She didn't know any other way, so she
Chose the easy way.
It was too late the girl you all had hate on
Was gone, she was as cold as ice, this poor girl
Took her own life, she's at peace now, her minds
At rest she's gone to the other side happy she's
No longer depressed.

Here I am
Emotional disaster
Ruining what's left
Only going down
I don't want to survive
Copyright © steven starkey | Year Posted 2016
Angels and demons have fought inside my warring mind,
Battling between light and shadows in a penumbral bind.
Coruscating clashes of such a photon fury,
Divided myself into two, one calm, one worried.
Eight long years since I've tried to escape,
From astral beings arriving in emotional shape.
Gagged by this battle between light and dark,
How could I not snap in myself's bending arch?
If I might find the chance to recover,
Just mend the battle wounds, I might discover,
Killing the self is neither the answer nor way to,
Lose the chains of memory's traumas of truths untrue.
Maybe if I will myself to look forward,
Never again shall I battle what's backward.
Open my mind, oh universe, to hope yet again,
Please spare me of the sorrow and apathy I've been.
Quiet the demons of whatever negativity remains,
Resisting my will while holding me in pathetic pain.
Someday I will recover from these wounds,
Time shall heal with passing suns and moons.
Under the starlit canopy of the parchment sky above,
Veneers of viridian and vermillion views I'll learn to love.
When the age of depression shall be a prepubescent time when,
Xenophobic fears and self-destructive thoughts shan't ever be again.
Yes I shall recover from the battles between an angel and demon,
Zen shall then surface in a lucid and languid life of hopeful dreaming.

Libations of Prayer
O loving Father,
When our hope begins to fade
And our strength fails,
Again you send Your servants
To come alongside us,
Visible, tangible messengers of Your care.
In prayer we cling to ancient promises
With brokenhearted faith that cries,
Weeping yet once again over loss.
Their tears fall together with ours,
Forming on faces and floors
The sweetest libations of Your Spirit.
As we arise from sacred moment,
To look through bleary eyes
Upon pained yet radiant faces,
We behold the glory of a Savior
Who, having shed tears and blood,
Even now fellowships with us.

Gronk joins Rick Ross onstage at Shrine Nightclub.
The New England Patriots celebrated their Super Bowl victory with all of their fans in Boston yesterday and the party went on all night, and is probably still going on if you're name is Rob Gronkowski.
Gronk was chugging (and spiking) beers all day during the Patriots championship parade but still had plenty of energy to party on stage and chug champagne right out of the bottle with Rick Ross last night/early this morning.
Gronk and Ricky Rozay took over Shrine Nightclub at the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut- check out a quick clip of the footage below as well as some of Gronk's finer parade moments.

Chinas holdings of U.S. Treasuries declined to the lowest level in four years, as the worlds second-largest economy runs down its reserves to support the yuan.
The biggest foreign holder of U.S. government debt had $1.16 trillion in bonds, notes and bills in September, down $28.1 billion from the prior month, according to U.S. Treasury Department data released Wednesday in Washington and previous figures compiled by Bloomberg. Thats the lowest level since September 2012.
The portfolio of Japan, the largest holder after China, fell for a second straight month, down $7.6 billion to $1.14 trillion. The Treasury holdings of oil-producing Saudi Arabia declined for an eighth straight month, to $89.4 billion.
Chinas foreign reserves, the worlds largest stockpile, are down to $3.12 trillion from a record $4 trillion in June 2014 amid support for the currency.
The report, which also contains data on international capital flows, showed net foreign selling of long-term securities totaling $26.2 billion in September. It showed a total cross-border outflow, including short-term securities such as Treasury bills and stock swaps, of $152.9 billion.
Net foreign selling of U.S. Treasuries was $76.6 billion in September and $3.21 billion in equities, while foreigners purchased a net $1.08 billion of corporate debt and $32.1 billion in agency debt, according to the report.

Fross Hessian soldier
I am the decendent of Johaan Georg Fraas, later to become George W Fross(Frost)Sr., whom was a soldier that served in the Anspach/Bayreuth regiment. Johaan was captured at Yorktown in October 1781, and was later kept as a P.O.W. in Frederick, Maryland. After the war George, changed name after naturalization, moved to Clark County,Ohio with his family. George died sometime between Jan-Mar 1827 near Donnelsville, Ohio.
I am searching for any information on George(Johaan) and his life before and/or after fighting in the Revolutionary war. One record I have from Frederick Church records gives a possible birth date on February 5,1765.
Thank you, John email@example.com

I follow Hanafi Madhab . Here we don't raise hands before going to ruku or prostration.
And Allah Knows Best.
I m confused.
I have read at many places that one should raise his/her hands before goin into ruku and prostration.
Recently i read somewhere that this practise was later prohibited by our Prophet(S).
Hazrat Jaabir Ibn Samurah (radhiallahu anhu) relates that once Rasulullah (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) came out of his house towards us and said: "Why is it that I see you all raising your hands as though they are the tails of stubborn horses. Be tranquil in salah". [Sahih Muslim, Hadith 430]
[This hadith alone makes it clear that those narrations which mention the raising of the hands (during the salah) were narrated prior to the prohibition of this practice].
Why this differnce of opinion?
I follow Hanafi Madhab . Here we don't raise hands before going to ruku or prostration.
And Allah Knows Best.
It depends on which madhab you follow. I follow madhab syafii and I raise my hands before rukoo and prostration
From Islamqa:
When should hands be raised during the prayer?
I would like to know raising the hands during the prayers. What is the right act exactly? As we know in the deen there must be unity, even in the daily prayer. So there are many ahadith speaking differently about raising the hands: one of them speaks of raising the hands only after the first takbeer, and another is speaking about raising the hands after all takbeer. What is right? We have only one messenger (Muhammad s.a.w) so there must be one way of praying!!
Praise be to Allaah.
It is Sunnah to raise one's hands in four places during the prayer:
When pronouncing Takbeer al-Ihraam (the first Takbeer), when bowing in Rukoo', when rising from Rukoo' and when standing up after the first Tashahhud. Ibn 'Umar (may Allaah be pleased with him) narrated that when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) started his prayer, he would say "Allaahu akbar" and raise his hands, when he bowed in rukoo' he would raise his hands, when he said "Sami'a Allaahu liman hamidah [Allaah hears those who praise Him]" he would raise his hands, and when he stood up after two Rak'ahs he would raise his hands. (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 2/222; Abu Dawood, 1/197).
The meaning of "when he stood up after two Rak'ahs he would raise his hands" is, when he stood up after the first Tashahhud.
The hands may be raised to the level of the shoulders or the ears. See Al-'Ayni fi'l-'Umdah, 5/7; Sharh Muslim by al-Nawawi, 4/95; Sifat Salaat al-Nabi by al-Albaani, 87.
Islam Q&A
Sheikh Muhammed Salih Al-Munajjid
- Allah's Messenger was referring to some bedouins who would just raise their hands without any purpose in the salat.
- Allah's Messenger was referring to those people who would raise their hands instead of making the tasleem at the end of the prayer. This is why you'll find this hadith usually mentioned under the chapter heading 'Bab fee at-Tasleem' (chapter concerning the tasleem) in Hadith books.
* Also, if this hadith was indeed referring to the raising of hands before and after the ruku', then it would apply to ALL instances when one raises the hand, even the beginning of the prayer. (However, it is proven that we raise our hands, as you can see from naidamar's post)
[These points were highlighted by Sh. Suhaib Hasan (UK) during his explanation of Muwatta Imam Malik]
Thank you
The issue of Raf'ul Yadain (raising the hands before and after Ruku) is a very intensive one. There are many Muhadditheen and Mujtahideen that supported each of the opposing views. According to Imam Abu Hanifah (RH), Sufyan Thawri (RH) and one view of Imam Malik (RH), the hands are to be raised only during the start of the Prayer.
Imam Shaf'i (RH) and Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal preferred the view that the hands should also be raised while going to the Ruku and after raising up from the Ruku.
Both these views are based on authentic narrations of the Prophet . For a detailed discussion of the narrations that limit the Raf'ul Yadain to the start of the Prayer only, please view: http://www.central-mosque.com/fiqh/detraf.htm

Cedar River recedes in Cedar Rapids after crest
City officials confident city preparations enough to keep city protected
Jul 3, 2014 at 6:33 pm | Print View
CEDAR RAPIDS — The National Weather Service projected that the Cedar River was to crest overnight Thursday at 16.47 feet before it begins to drop.
On June 24, the river climbed to 17.34 feet, and a year ago, on June 2, it reached 18.23 feet, the sixth highest recorded level.
Major flood stage in Cedar Rapids is 16 feet, though city officials now feel confident that they can protect the city up to at least the 19-foot level without too much inconvenience.
The river reached 31.12 — 11.12 feet higher than the previous record of 20 feet in 1851 and 1929 — during the city's flood disaster of 2008.

WOW! So I haven't shaved in over a week (DH is gone and it's been rainy and cold so I figured what was the point) I just felt my legs after reading this post and HOLY crap... there is like nothing there. I usually have dark leg hair and usually have to shave every other day. This is awesome lol. At least since this little girl is making me break out horribly (which has never happened) she has decided to help me with the whole hair issue lol. This will def come in handy this summer when I'm too big to really shave my legs and it's too hot to wear pants LOL.

After a long-awaited absence, the son of legendary Lebanese singer Fairuz – and himself equally legendary these days – Ziad Al Rahbani held a series of three concerts on December 20-22 in northern Beirut.
"Ziad Al Rahbani & Les Artistes" showcased Rahbani's newest jazz compositions, his favorite world jazz classics – mainly Brazilian Bossa Nova tracks – and a few of his own Arabic tracks originally composed and sung by Fairuz. Six up and coming vocalists took to the stage at different times, backed by a live band and Rahbani on keyboards, to bring the tracks to life with their voices and occasional samba dance moves.
Known not only for his music but his deep-rooted political leftist beliefs and farsightedness on Lebanon's socio-political history, Rahbani didn't miss this occasion to highlight these either, as five of his so-called "Manifesto" – his political column for Lebanese daily Al Akhbar – were also read on stage in between performances.
Still, Rahbani made it easy for the audience to completely forget that this was his concert, let alone that he was on stage. His intermittent quips in between acts and sporadic singing along with the female singers were the only proof that he was part of the concert at all. Numerous shout outs from the audience, asking him to sing, fell on deaf ears.

RELATED – Mashrou' Leila: The soundtrack of an Arab generation
It was as if Rahbani came to present everything that was liked and favorited by him and not the audience. Every time one of the female vocalists who sang Rahbani's Arabic compositions – a Syrian originally from Homs with an exceptional voice and slight resemblance to Fairuz – came on stage the hall erupted in cheering and clapping.
"When Ziad saw this," one person in the audience noted, "he should have taken it as a queue to play more of such tracks he knows we all came for. His music is great, but he is just doing what he wants to do and hear," she lamented.
Even though Rahbani's latest performances truly disappointed many of his fans, thirsty to hear his voice rather than just playing the piano in front of them, to hear his own fresh new musical marvels, insightful socio-political observations, characteristic humor and endless wit, it is still very doubtful he lost any followers due to a lackluster show.

Our start time today was 9.30am, half an hour later than the traditional 9am summer start time. Again this is intended to make the rides more attractive to members from outside Cambridge. Once again, please let us know what you think.
The weather forecast for today was excellent, with a cold start due to be followed by warm sunshine for the rest of the day. I woke up at the usual time and was rather frustrated having to wait for a later start, but decided to make the best of it and rode down to Brookside for the 9.30am start. There just three outer members waiting: Rupert, Greg and newcomer David. We didn't have a leader today, but we didn't really need one: Rupert offered a choice of routes via Coton or Wimpole, I chose Wimpole, and so off we went.
Barton Road, Cambridge
At 9.30am it was still cloudy and cold, so we took the 20 miles to coffee at a brisk pace. We rode south-west from Cambridge along the Barton Road cycleway to Barton. There we turned south towards Haslingfield and climbed Chapel Hill before dropping back down to Barrington. From here we continued to Orwell, crossed the A603 and entered the grounds of Wimpole Hall.
Wimpole Hall
Wimpole Hall is a popular venue for organised runs and bike rodes and today we noticed that there were both. The running event was the Wimpole Estate Junior Parkrun which had finished earlier and people were now clearing up.
We rode through the estate to the Arrington Gate, crossed the A1198 and continued west to Croydon. As we climbed the short but steep Croydon Hill we met our first sportive riders coming the other way. At the time we assumed they were all riding back to Wimpole but I later found that they were actually riding the Strawberry 50 and were on their way back to Impington.
A little further along we noticed some sportive riders turning left onto what appeared to be a rough track. It became apparent that there was a second event taking place for off-road riders. This was the Tour of the Cornfields Cyclocross Sportive and would eventually be returning back to Wimpole.
Refreshment stop at East Hatley for the Strawberry 50
Perhaps inspired by the other riders, Rupert, Greg and David were riding quite fast despite the westerly headwind and after I stopped in East Hatley to take a few photos I had to work hard to catch up with them.
I reached them just before Gamlingay and a few minutes later we all stopped for coffee at Woodview Farm Cafe. Already in the cafe were David W, Richard (from St Neots) and a new member who I now know to be Vin.
Coffee and cake at Woodview Farm Cafe, Gamlingay
After coffee my companions for the second stage of today's ride were David W and Vin, with everyone else returning back home. It was only about nine miles to our lunch stop by the direct route so I suggested going the long way round via St Neots, using the Willow Bridge to cross the Great Ouse. The weather was improving rapidly and by the time we arrived in Willington it was warm and sunny.
Lunch by the Ouse at Danish Camp, Willington
We stopped for lunch at Danish Camp. This is a cafe and cycle-hire place right next to the NCN 51 railway path, with a large lawn leading down to the River Great Ouse.
After a pleasant light lunch sitting by the river we discussed what to do next. David and Vin decided to head back home whilst I was keen to make the most of the fine weather and stay out a little longer.
After going our separate ways I continued west along NCN 51 towards the edge of Bedford. This took me into Priory Park, a large country park built on former gravel workings which was busy with people enjoying the warm September sunshine.
Boats on the lake at Priory Park, Bedford
NCN 51 continues west from Priory Park into the centre of Bedford but today I turned south, along the side of a large lake and along a series of not-very-well-signposted cycle paths towards Cardington.
The lake at Priory Park, Bedford
I emerged from the park into a business park and rode around a large roundabout before turning off onto quiet lanes towards Cardington.
The historic airship hangers at Cardington
I continued south, passing close to Old Warden before continuing on into the small town of Shefford. Here I turned east and carried on through Clifron and Henlow to Langford.
When I'm out cycling I like to stop for food and drink every two hours, so when I noticed that Langford had a Garden Centre I decided to call in at the cafe for coffee and cake. It was now 3.30pm, and with about twenty miles to go I was due to take on a few more calories. As I sat in the sunshine enjoying my latte and carrot cake another cyclist came up to me to say hello. It was Stuart, a familiar face from Stevenage who occationally joins our rides. Today he and a fellow-riders were on their way home from a trip up to St Ives.
Coffee at cake at Langford Garden Centre
Suitably refreshed I got back on the bike for the final stage back to Cambridge. I crossed the A1 by the water tower at Edworth and turned onto the road to Hinxworth.
Water tower near Edworth
I'm always looking out for possible food and drink stops so was interested to see a sign for teas at Lower Farm, Edworth. A later web search shows this to be the Summer Barn Tea Room, open until 4.30pm and possibly worth investigating further.
I continued to Ashwell (where I saw that the church room was open for teas until 5pm) and pressed on along familar roads through Steeple Morden, Litlington and Bassingbourn to Kneesworth. I crossed the A1198 and continued east to Meldreth.
Wind turbines near Langford
Our usual route from Meldreth involves riding through Shepreth, Barrington and Haslingfield, but we'd been that way in the morning so I decided to take a slightly longer route back via Melbourn, Fowlmere, Thriplow, Newton and the Shelfords. I returned to Brookside, turned off the GPS and rode the final mile home. I arrived home at 6.15pm, having cycled 87 miles.

President Obama visited Trinity Structural Towers in Newton, Iowa. yesterday. Trinity is a business that produces the huge steel pedestals that support wind turbines for the windmills that are popping up all around Iowa and the nation. The business is located in one of Maytag's old production plants and employs some former Maytag employees.
President Obama toured the plant and spoke with workers before making his speech in front of the 170 people gathered on the factory floor. His visit highlighted how Iowa's wind industry has created good paying jobs in Iowa.
Obama's visit to Newton undoubtedly helped to highlight Iowa's alternative energy industry, but that issue comprised only one segment of his remarks. Obama spent considerable time talking about climate change and advocating for his cap and trade policy. Under his proposal, the government would set a limit, or cap, on the amount of a carbon that can be emitted into the atmosphere by any one entity. Companies and individuals would then be issued emission permits.
Obama's cap and trade proposal has plenty of critics – some even on his own side of the political aisle – and it coincides with other new regulations coming from his administration. A new EPA proposal would charge farmers thousands of dollars per acre because farmers engage in carbon producing activities when putting their fields into production. This new proposal ignores the fact that these same farmers are planting millions of carbon consuming/oxygen producing plants.
One also has to wonder what Obama's cap and trade proposal would mean to a company like Trinity. While they produce products that are used to build energy producing windmills, the company basically creates huge steel tubes. The amount of energy and the carbon emitted in producing these enormous structures has to be considerable, and that doesn't even take into consideration the impact of transporting these structures to their final destinations.
Another theme in Obama's speech was that there are some things that we can all do to use less energy. Once again, Obama said that Americans should make sure their tires are inflated properly to make sure they are getting the optimum gas millage for their vehicle. He also said that, if every American would switch out one regular light bulb for a compact florescent bulb, we could power 3 million homes.
Obama also continued to support tax credits for people who buy energy efficient furnaces, but said we need to look for other home appliances where we could cut energy use. Obama called for more efficient refrigerators and dishwashers. I thought these were odd comments to make in a factory that once housed a proud Iowa company that produced those products.
Obama said that politicians in the past have been unwilling to make the difficult decisions to help curb America's thirst for energy, but he said he is not afraid to lead on the issues of energy and environment. He admitted that it will not be easy, and all Americans will have to sacrifice.
It seems certain that Obama's new regulations will have a major impact on life as we know it. While having the government mandate tire pressure, thermostats, and light bulbs is one thing, Obama's cap and trade policy will certainly increase the costs of essential goods for all Americans, which is a sacrifice that Americans simply cannot bear during these tough financial times.

As of yesterday the brand new trailer for Doctor Strange was released to the public eye. After watching it for the first time I can only tell you that for about five to ten minutes after doing so I was completely speechless.
With Scott Derrickson famous for directing movies such as Sinister, The Day the Earth Stood Still and The Exorcism of Emily Rose and Writers C. Robert Cargill, Jon Spaihts and Steve Ditko, from what I have seen in the trailer so far is just wondrous and enchanting. A couple of parts seemed very Inception and Harry Potter like, but don't let that elude you because it's said that this is going to be the most darker and twisted Marvel Universe movie yet.
So just hang on to your seats people cause as of this coming November you can expect to see Sherlock's Benedict Cumberbatch as the famed Doctor Strange along with Chewetel Ejiofor as Baron Mordo and Tilda Swinton as the Ancient One plus Rachel McAdams and also Mads Mikkelsen who you may remember in Casino Royal. Doctor Strange arrives to cinemas November 28th this year. IT'S GOING TO BE AWESOME!

Issue No. 01 - January (2008 vol. 34)
pp: 33-49
We outline a methodology for designing and composing services in a secure manner. In particular, we are concerned with safety properties of service behaviour. Services can enforce security policies locally and can invoke other services respecting given security contracts. This call-by-contract mechanism offers a significant set of opportunities, each driving secure ways to compose services. We discuss how to correctly plan services compositions in several relevant classes of services and security properties. To this aim, we propose a graphical modelling framework, based on a foundational calculus called lambda-req. Our formalism features dynamic and static semantics, so allowing for formal reasoning about systems. Static analysis and model checking techniques provide the designer with useful information to assess and fix possible vulnerabilities.
