Investors in Europe are braced for a series of political and economic risks in 2017, following a year of political shocks culminating in the Brexit vote and Trump election.
Around £2.8bn flowed out of European equities between the start of the year and the end of October, according to the Investment Association, as investors shun the region where growth remains slow, deflation is picking up, earnings are low and geopolitical risks take centre stage.
AJ Bell investment director Russ Mould says the European economy is still "pretty fragile" with banks ultimately paving the trend for fund managers.
The potential for political instability in Europe has been kicked off by the resignation of Italian prime minister Matteo Renzi after the "no vote" of the referendum he suggested.
This threw the country into uncertainty at a time when its banking system is particularly vulnerable.
In 2017 the Dutch, French and German elections and other political events could potentially follow a similar populist path of Italy with a higher risk of destabilising the economy, experts warn.
Invesco Perpetual head of European equities Jeff Taylor says: "Many investors have seen Europe's supposedly systemically weak banking system as a reason to give continental European equities a body swerve."
However, Taylor argues Europe has proven itself to be "remarkably resistant" to global macroeconomic turbulence during the year and says growth, although modest will continue in 2017.
The Eurozone economy grew by 0.3 per cent in the period after the UK's Brexit vote but, in his outlook, Taylor believes GDP growth for next year could reach 1.5 per cent.
He adds: "We also note that investor angst and misconceptions about Europe have led Europe ex UK and Eurozone equities to re-test the highs in equity risk premia seen during the global financial crisis in 2009 and Eurozone crisis of 2011 and 2012.
"Time will tell whether that is telling us more about equities in absolute terms or equities relative to bonds, but either way for all its issues, Europe isn't that bad."
To watch: QE, politics and US bond yields
Meanwhile, the key things that investors in Europe should look out for next year will be the European Central Bank reduction of QE stimulus, European politics, and the sharp rises in US bond yields, argues Mark Burgess, Columbia Threadneedle's chief investment officer for EMEA.
He says: "The US markets have become increasingly important for Eurozone exports, so changes in Trump's stance on international trade could impact Europe too."
In December, the ECB decided to extend its monthly asset purchase programme beyond March 2017 but will reduce it from €80bn to €60bn from April.
The central bank said the quantitative easing programme will continue until at least the end of December 2017, or beyond if necessary, until the Council sees "a sustained adjustment in the path of inflation" consistent with its inflation target.
However, it said if the economic outlook becomes "less favourable" it will increase the programme again in terms of size and, or, duration.
But Burgess says: "Any speculation that ECB might remove QE or at least start tapering has been met by a sell-off in euro area fixed income assets and a sharp rally in cyclical stocks, though we do not see a move of this kind being considered until later in 2017, if at all.
"Although the back-up in bond yields has not been as intense as 1994 or 2004, the rise in cyclical equity prices has hurt the relative performance of European equity portfolios, even as such stocks appear increasingly overbought."

Not me. Not today.I felt pretty motivated today. After Osairis ate we got ready and headed out. As usual I let himself tire out first. Then I strapped him in his stroller, gave him his snacks, and got started.
The field was occupied today with a lacrosse team that was practicing so I had to find another place that I could practice without worrying too much about others. The basketball court was empty so we headed for center court and that ended up being my training circle. As long as you stay out of the circle you don't have to worry about getting whacked by my stick. lol.
Another good practice. Be nice if I could have practiced a little more, but at least I got it in for today. Aight ItsYoBoyFlex and I'm out.

Hello, everyone. I recently built a new computer, and I'm trying to install Mavericks on it for the first time The [important] specs are as follows;
CPU:AMD FX-6350 6 Core
GPU:EVGA GeForce GTX 650 Ti BOOST SC
Motherboard: Biostar TA970
The installation was a hassle, but I finally got it installed Whenever I attempt booting, I either get a blank grey screen or the default Apple booting screen, but nothing happens... I've tried numerous times, with the same results, and use different boot args each time with little difference. Any help would be AMAZING so thanks in advance for answering, or sharing a similar issue.

text: A few days ago I after reading some threads on reboots and decided to check the awake time and found that phone wasnt sleeping. Battery life wasnt affected all that bad I thought, lasting throughout the day, however I did an FDR reloaded only a few programs and the problem went away (along with the reboots that occurred nearly everytime I started navigator and only navigator). Battery life was exceptional afterwards, still having at least 60% remaining after unplugging around 8 am and checking later than 7pm I reloaded the following apps Shazam xing barcode scanner LED desire Google Earth Spare Parts, and just now sys panel lite. Today I experienced another reboot, checked awake time and found it to be at 100% again. After unplugging at 8am and checking at 7 pm, battery remaining is at 36%, way under normal (im usually at 60%+ with heavier usage). Very moderate use today , maybe a dozen short calls, a couple emails, no browsing, took 1 picture and sms'd it, and LED desire (first time used since re-installed) I do keep both my wifi and BT on, 4g off. Ive been in good signal range all day. Anyone have any suggestions or can point to me to a thread that will help me to use the tools (spare parts and/or sys panel to determine what the awake culprit is ? When I last had the problem I installed sys panel, rebooted and rechecked the stats the next morning and the only thing that matched the time was system under internal System processes. Thanks in advance for any help that can be offered. ** correction I believe the reboot occurred yesterday and the phone hasnt slept since then. Up and awake time at 32:21:xx. Basically I believe the phone hasnt slept since it did its reboot, and I cant recall what I was doing at the time of the reboot, however it wasnt navigator this time.

Wasting water is a sore point in drought-prone South Texas, and San Antonio Water System (SAWS) seeks to husband this precious resource the best it can. The company serves about 460,000 water and 411,000 wastewater customers, or about 1.6 million people, in the San Antonio metropolitan area (including most of the city of San Antonio, several suburban municipalities, and adjacent parts of Bexar County). In addition to serving its own retail customers, SAWS provides wholesale water supplies to several smaller utility systems in its service area. The utility is owned by the City of San Antonio.
SAWS oversees more than 10,400 miles of water and sewer mains.
Geographic Reach
The company serves Texas customers in Bexar County, as well as parts of Medina and Atascosa counties.
Sales and Marketing
The company serves retail customers and also provides wholesale water supplies to several smaller utility systems.
Financial Performance
In 2014 SAWS' net revenue increased by 8% due to an average power rate increase of 5.1% a 3.9% increase in metered water usage, and average customer growth of 1.8%.
The company's net income increased by 57% due to higher net revenues and a decline in salaries and fringe benefits related to retirement incentive program and efficiency improvements implemented and synergies associated with integrating the operations of Bexar Metroplitan Water District with the company.
In 2014 SAWS' operating cash inflow increased by 14%.
The water and wastewater utility expects its population base to increase from 1 million in 2006 to 2.2 million by 2050, and its water demand to double during the same time period. Faced with a regional long term drought scenario, SAWS is pushing conservation measures.
To avoid costly federal litigation over alleged Clean Water Act violations, in 2013 SAWS agreed to invest an additional $492 million in infrastructure and maintenance to reduce sewer spills in San Antonio under a settlement with the EPA and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
The company focuses on integration pipeline and pump station, and brackish groundwater desalination (designed to produce 13,440 acre-feet of water per year) and the expanded Carrizo project, which is projected to produce 21,000 acre-feet of water from the Carrizo aquifer in southeast Bexar by 2027.
Company Background
SAWS and a neighboring water authority, the Lower Colorado River Authority, signed an agreement in 2002 to study the feasibility of drawing water from the lower Colorado River basin for use by San Antonio. The LCRA reported in 2009 that it had found that there was not a sufficient amount of extra water available to build a proposed reservoir. SAWS sued LCRA for $1.2 billion over the results of the study, but the suit was tossed out by a state district judge.
SAWS was formed in 1992 through a merger of three entities: the City Water Board, the City Wastewater Department, and the Alamo Water Conservation and Reuse District.

Fabric petals fall, a field of wildflowers cut and left to blow away. Picked up by loving hands, gathered together.
A daisy chain of fabric. A little quilt top, too small to be of use. Too precious to leave unfinished. In the darkness, patiently, she waits until she's needed. Sleepy flowers, nodding heavily.
When it's time, she wakes. A backing, a bed of moss. Tiny stitches, sewn by hand, footpaths through the woods. Her rough edges bound in cotton voile, soft as wildflower petals. All this time, she thinks of her.
She is on her way, a dandelion seed on the wind. A silly little quilt, light as air. She wants nothing more than to be loved by her, a quiet friend, a lovely mystery. A kindred spirit, a field of wildflowers cut and left to blow away. She is coming to gather her together. She holds out her hands...

Tips on Tracking iPhone with Android
With geo-tracking apps, you don't need to ask your children where they are, you can simply run the app and see their real-time GPS location. While there are some apps that allow geo-tracking on iPhones or Android, there are very few that work on both platforms.
Pumpic mobile monitoring app is one of the few that allow you to track an iPhone with Android and vice versa. If you want to track an iPhone with Android phone, you will need to install Pumpic on your child's iPhone, which won't take you longer than 5 minutes. After the installation is complete, you can monitor your child's iPhone from any part of the world via a PC or a cell phone.
The list of features available to you after installation includes:
- GPS tracking;
- Call logs, SMS monitoring;
- Internet activity monitoring;
- Social media monitoring;
- Apps, VoIP messages and snap chats monitoring;
- Keylogging;
- 18+ websites blocking;
- Contacts, calendar, scheduled events;
- SMS commands;
- Photos and videos monitoring.
You can use one or all features together to track your child's smartphone. The most popular reasons to install parental controls are protection and security of your children. Parental controls allow you to detect and prevent cyberbullying in social media websites like Facebook and Instagram. Control your child's online activity, check bookmarks and sites he/she visits and block the ones you think are inappropriate for your child or contain violence, explicit content, and racial prejudice. In addition, you can view all snap chats and apps to make sure your kid won't fall into ensnare of online predators.
According to the recent poll, modern children spend around 3 hours online with 90% of the time via their cell phones. While the majority claims that they use the Internet in educational purposes, the number of children browsing 18+ websites is constantly increasing.
More than 70% of kids have experienced or participated in cyberbullying, and only 3 in 10 children inform their parents if they have been bullied online.
Parental controls allow us to keep abreast of our children's online life in order to protect and secure them from possible dangers.

So, last week, the Better Half and I are out in the town. Our daughter is at her Pokemon League for a couple of hours, so we have some time to burn. We decide to visit one of the fine book retail establishments, specifically one that sells used books and media. Last weekend, they had a big used book sale, which is like catnip to a feline. We decide to stock up. I find a few nice graphic novel selections, and the Better Half finds some things for herself. After a while, we decide to go pay. This is where things get interesting.
The Better Half is getting rung up first by the nice young female cashier. She appears to be either a senior in high school or a freshman in college. Make note of this detail for it may be important in the narrative. I should mention that the sale is as follows: Get five (5) used books for twenty (20) dollars.
Young lady begins ringing up the purchase. The Better Half notices that the price per book is a bit high, not to mention the total will be a bit more (ok, a lot more) than twenty bucks. We proceed to point that out. The cashier then starts changing the prices manually. OK, we understand that programming a cash register may not be easy; the machine was not set to scan and figure out the sale. Cool, I can go with that.
However, we worry when she starts changing the price to five dollars per book. Again, we gently point out that the sale as stated in "get five books for 20 dollars." It is at this point that the young lady gets a bit distressed. What does she do?
She calls out to the cashier two stalls down, "hey Bob (the name Bob is used to protect the not so innocent), how much are books if they are 5 for 20 bucks?"
We had to gently do the math for her and explain that if you buy 5 books at 20 dollars, it means each book would cost four dollars each. Apparently basic math is not a requirement to be a cashier anymore. In fact, we even told our daughter about it, asking her, "hun, if books are 5 for 20 bucks, how much is it per book?" Daughter right away said, "dad, that's easy. They are 4 bucks each."
I don't know about the rest of you, but if that girl is the future of America, I am worried.

"…a sweetly satisfying mystery that'll have you licking your lips for more!" – Christine Verstraete, Searching for a Starry Night, a Miniature Art Mystery
"Murder Takes the Cake has all the right ingredients for a delicious read." – Ellen Crosby, author of The Bordeaux Betrayal
Chapter One
For the second time in as many months, I found myself telling a police officer, "I just brought the cake."
We were sitting in my kitchen with its beige walls, white cabinets and light-colored wood floor. It's usually a peaceful, happy place. But then, I'm usually not being interrogated here . . . although, I am interrogated here more than you might thing.
"Yes, ma'am," the police man was saying, "and the lab has already tested remnants of that cake and determined it's not the cause."
"Well, that's a relief." It was also a relief to be dealing with Officer McAfee rather than Officer Hayden this time. Officer McAfee appeared to be on the backside of thirty and didn't seem to rush to judgment the way young Officer Hayden had.
"Nevertheless, ninety percent of the folks who attended the Brea Ridge Pharmaceutical Christmas party are violently ill today," Officer McAfee said.
"Right. As I said, I just brought the cake. I didn't stay for the festivities."
"Lucky you." His brown fingers fumbled with a small blue notebook. "You didn't notice anything unusual going on?"
"Like Momba Womba spiking the punch?" With a name like Daphne, I'm entitled to a Scooby Doo reference now and then, especially when I'm nervous. I can't remember what Momba Womba really did, although I do remember he was a witch doctor. I'm fairly sure he didn't spike any punch, or else Shaggy and Scooby would've been in big trouble. Those guys would eat and drink things found in cobweb covered cabinets in creepy haunted houses.
Officer McAfee's dark eyes widened as he leaned forward in my kitchen chair. "You saw somebody spike the punch?"
"No, no . . . I didn't see anything."
He stood up. "If you think of anything—anything at all—that might've made those people sick, call me." He handed me his business card. "This is deadly serious, Ms. Martin. Fred Duncan is in the hospital in a coma today."
"Fred Duncan?"
"Yeah. You know him?"
"He works at the Save-A-Buck."
I walked Officer McAfee to the door. "That's terrible. Do the doctors think he'll be okay?"
He shook his head. "It's not looking good."
I'd barely had time to put our coffee cups in the dishwasher before my neighbor Myra was at the door. Myra was a feisty widow with too much time on her hands, but she was always entertaining. I invited her in and we went to sit in the living room. I felt I might as well be comfortable for my inquisition.
"I thought I saw a police car over here," Myra said, kicking off her loafers and dropping into my pink and white checked club chair.
"You did. You did see a police car." The Looney Tunes reference was lost on Myra. She was like a bloodhound with a scent to follow.
"What were they doing here?"
I sat down on the couch. "Brea Ridge Pharmaceuticals had their Christmas party last night."
"Were you there? Did it get rowdy? Was there a drunken brawl?"
"I delivered a cake, but I left before the party started."
"So you didn't get to see the brawl?"
"As far as I know, there was no brawl."
"Then why were the police here?"
"A lot of people who were at the party got sick."
"From your cake?"
I held up my hand. "Definitely not from my cake. Officer McAfee said the lab tested remnants of the cake, and it was fine."
"Remnants? I thought only carpet came in remnants. Huh." She folded her legs up under her. "That Officer McAfee is a good looking man, ain't he? He reminds me of Malcolm Winters from Y and R. Of course, he's on that crime show now, so there you go."
"There you go," I echoed, as if her train of thought made one iota of sense.
"What was it that made everybody so sick?"
"They don't know yet. Fortunately, the company had some drugs on hand that lessened the symptoms for most of them. They couldn't help poor Fred Duncan, though."
"He still sick?"
I nodded slowly. "He's in a coma."
"Fred Duncan is in a coma?" She scoffed. "Bet he's fakin'."
"Myra, you can't fake a coma."
"Oh, honey, you can. I did it one time. Me and Carl had this big fight and he stormed out. I wanted him to find me passed out on the bedroom floor when he got home so he'd feel really ashamed for how he'd left."
I merely stared at her with my mouth hanging open.
"I took a couple of sleeping pills and laid down on the floor," she continued. "I don't know how long I'd been asleep before Carl got home, but he was plenty worried when he finally got me revived. He called an ambulance and everything. And that wasn't like Carl. Normally, he was so cheap, he'd have just pitched me in the back of the Buick, turned on the four-way flashers and took me to the hospital himself." She smiled smugly. "Even with our insurance, that trip cost us a pretty penny. They checked my heart and everything."
"You didn't tell the doctor you took the sleeping pills?"
"Nah. That showed up in the blood work later. But by then, they'd gone over me with a fine tooth comb. I even got to have a CT scan. Let me tell you, Carl Jenkins never dared storm off and leave me again."
"I guess not."
"So, you see? You can fake a coma."
* * *
Despite Myra's assertions to the contrary, I did not believe Fred Duncan was faking his coma. I felt horrible for him and his family. His grandfather and my uncle were hunting buddies, and I knew Fred's near fatal car accident and resulting brain damage about a year ago had taken a considerable toll on the Duncans.
My niece and nephew were convinced Fred was "crushing on me big time" after he asked my sister a ton of questions about me at the grocery store and then ordered a cake for his grandfather. He'd ordered a birthday cake; and since Mr. Duncan's birthday was still months away, Fred's mother had called and canceled the order.
All of this pondering somehow led to my hopping in my little red Mini Cooper and heading to the hospital. And I hate, hate, hate hospitals.
I approached the two elderly women volunteering at the reception desk.
"I'm here to see Fred Duncan."
One of the women tapped Fred's name into the computer before directing me to the ICU waiting area. The halls were lined with potted peace lilies. I spotted the door with the sign reading "Chapel" and considered going in to say a prayer for Fred. The chapel would be an excellent place to hide while I steeled myself to actually go and see Fred. On the other hand, if there was a grieving family in the chapel, that would be a terribly awkward situation . . . especially if it was Fred's family. I took a deep breath and went on to the ICU waiting room.
A nurse approached and quietly asked who I was there to see. I told her, and she led me back to a cramped room where Fred lay hooked up to a number of beeping, whirring, whooshing gadgets. A tired-looking woman wearing a pink sweatshirt and jeans sat in a straight-backed chair by the bed and held Fred's hand. I'd been standing in the room a full minute before she looked up.
"Hi," I said. "I'm Daphne Martin."
"The cake lady." She smiled wanly. "Now I can see why Fred ordered his papaw a birthday cake five months early. I'm Connie Duncan."
"It's nice to meet you, Mrs. Duncan. How's Fred?"
Connie looked at her son. "Not very well, Daphne. Would you talk to him . . . let him know you're here?"
"Of course." I moved closer to the bed. "Fred, hi, it's me, Daphne. You'd better hurry up and get well before the Save-A-Buck goes broke. You know they can't run that place without you." I looked from Fred's ashen face to Connie's.
"Thank you," she said softly.
"Can I get you anything? A cup or coffee or a soda maybe?"
"Coffee would be nice. Would you walk down to the cafeteria with me?"
Connie went by the nurses' station to inform them she'd be back within five minutes, and then we headed for the cafeteria.
"I heard about the party," I said as we walked. "Actually, Officer McAfee of the police department stopped by and asked me about it. I told him I only delivered the cake and didn't know about all those people getting sick." I bit my bottom lip. "For the record, the lab confirmed there was nothing in the cake that caused the illness."
"I know, sweetie. This isn't your fault."
"What happened? How did all those people get sick?"
"I don't know. I only wish that if one of us had to be sick, it had been me instead of Fred. He's been through so much already."
"Do you work at Brea Ridge Pharmaceuticals?"
"Yes. I'm the bookkeeper."
"I simply can't understand how everybody—at least, everybody infected—got so sick so fast. Even if they contracted some sort of virus, it usually takes a few days to incubate, doesn't it?"
"You'd think," Connie said. "But the medicine Dr. Holloway gave out when people started getting sick appeared to help everybody except Fred." She looked at me. "Why didn't it help Fred?"
"I wish I knew."
We'd arrived at the cafeteria. While Connie got her coffee, I stepped over to the soda machine to get a Diet Coke. I popped the tab on the can and took a drink. She rejoined me and we started walking back toward the ICU waiting area.
"I was impressed by how you found out who killed Yodel Watson," Connie said. "I read about it in the papers."
I grinned. "I wasn't all that impressive. I'm dating the guy who wrote the article, so he might've fudged a bit."
"No," she said, "I don't think so. I think you were very brave. You set your mind to finding out what happened to that old woman, and you did it. I admire you for that."
"Thank you." Why do I have a huge knot of dread gathering in my stomach? Dread not even Diet Coke can wash away?
She nodded and stirred her coffee. "I want you to do that for me."
I stopped walking. "Excuse me?"
She'd taken a couple steps ahead of me and had to turn around to face me. "That's what I want you to do for me. Find out what happened to Fred."
"The police are already investigating, and—"
"But you're Fred's friend. You know him."
Not exactly.
I started walking again and she fell into step beside me. "But I'm not a detective by any stretch of the imagination."
"Yes, you are! You solved that other crime and put a killer in jail."
Yeah. Not looking forward to testifying in that case. Certainly don't want to get tangled up in another messy situation.
"Mrs. Duncan, I'd love to help you . . . really, I would . . . but the police are doing everything they can. I'm sure they'll resolve this as quickly as possible."
When we entered the ICU waiting area, the nurse on duty rushed toward Connie and propelled her in the direction of Fred's room. Not knowing what else to do, I followed.
The nurse spoke in a hushed but urgent tone. "Fred is in some significant distress, Mrs. Duncan. We're doing everything we can do."
"Distress? What do you mean? What kind of distress? Will he be all right?"
If you've ever seen a soap opera or a movie-of-the-week, then you've heard the beep. As soon as I heard the beep, I closed my eyes.
Please, no. This can't be happening.
When I reopened my eyes, a nurse was pulling the curtain around Fred's bed and the doctor was approaching Connie.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Duncan. We did all we could do."
Connie screamed, dropped her coffee, and threw herself into my arms. "They've killed him! They've killed my baby! You have to help me, Daphne."
"I will," I said, patting her back. I have to. It's my fault you went for coffee.
The nurses gathered around Connie. I heard one say they'd called her family. I waited with Connie in the hallway—mainly holding her hand, patting her shoulder and trying not to say anything stupid—until Walt Duncan, Fred's grandfather, arrived. I then excused myself and told Connie I'd call her later.
I walked down the hall and pressed the button for the elevator. I was relieved to see the elevator was empty. Being in a crowded hospital elevator is especially awkward. Before the door could close, I saw a tall, thin blonde woman with a briefcase and a travel mug briskly approaching.
I studied her while I was holding the "Open Door" button. "Cara? Cara Logan?"
She whisked a long strand of hair off her face with her wrist. "Daphne?" She smiled. "Hi! What're you doing here?"
"I was visiting a friend. You?"
"Following a story. As always. My boyfriend works with Brea Ridge Pharmaceuticals. They had some sort of outbreak during a Christmas party, of all things."
"I heard."
"My boyfriend, John Holloway, saved just about everybody with some kind of miracle vaccine the company has been working on."
I merely nodded. Just about everybody was right.
"The only guy who didn't get better right away was Fred . . . somebody."
"Duncan," I said.
"Yeah, that's it. Anyway, his reaction was more severe than everyone else's, and I intend to figure out why." She lifted her mug and took a drink of—given the scent—coffee. "I meant to talk to them upstairs, but they sent me away. Even threatened to call security."
The elevator door opened.
"Oh, well, see ya, Daphne. Maybe we can get together while I'm in town."
"Sure. That'd be great." I slowly walked out of the hospital.
Cara was a reporter from Richmond. How her paper had the resources to send her all over the country to follow stories was beyond me. Or maybe Cara was the one with the budget, and the paper just gave her free rein to pursue whatever stories she wanted to report on. Either way, it seemed a bit strange to me.
I'd met Cara a few months ago at the Oklahoma Sugar Art Show. We discovered we were from the same area of the country and had lunch together. Over lunch, Cara had talked in depth about her career. She flitted from story to story and subject to subject like a honeybee in a field of wildflowers. Buzz. . . buzz. A murder in Kentucky. Buzz . . . buzz. Katrina restorations. Buzz . . . buzz. Fashion week in New York. Buzz . . . buzz. The Oklahoma Sugar Art Show. And now she was here in Brea Ridge covering a story involving her boyfriend, Dr. Holloway. . . a story—given Fred's death—I wouldn't think Dr. Holloway would want told.

Agios Dionyssios, Patras
This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (April 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Agios Dionysios (Greek: Άγιος Διονύσιος meaning Saint Dennis) is a neighbourhood in the city of Patras, Greece. Its boundaries are a street north of Agiou Dionyssiou, Riga Fereou Street to the east and 28 Oktovriou Street to the south.
Much of the area are made up of residences. The square is by Agiou Andreou and Norman Streets. The Patras Freight Yard is to the northwest and the Port of Patras is to the west.
Until 1828 when the city was liberated from the Turks the area held farmlands, vineyards and olive groves. Farming became notable in the era of Ioannis Papadiamantopoulos. In 1829, the Zanteans settled in the area and built the church of Saint Dennis.
Houses and buildings were added and in the late-19th and the early-20th centuries. After World War II and the Greek Civil War, the eastern and the northernmost portions of the subdivision received taller buildings, reaching eight stories, amidst buildings with neo-classical architecture. In the 1960s and the 1970s, the Port of Patras expanded with more piers and an entrance in which is moved north of Agios Dionyssios.

If there is one thing we have learned from the advent of the internet age, it's that life can be a whole lot easier with a few tips from the experts. Life hacks have taken over YouTube, leading the charge and improving everyone's lives with simple little tips, like a collective grandmother giving everyone advice.
My favorite life hacks all involve food because I am pretty much the furthest thing from a professional chef. All of these food hacks will make your life cheaper, easier and of course – more delicious!
Gummy Bear Pops
Freeze gummy bears in Sprite, adding in a Popsicle stick to create a cheap, refreshing treat for those hot summer days.
Smooth Measuring
Spray some non-stick cooking spray into your measuring cups to ensure that you are using the right amount every single time. Plus they are much easier to clean so it's a win/win.
Easy Cheesy Bread
Grab a loaf of sourdough, some mozzarella cheese and chives to make this savory appetizer for your next dinner party.
Chocolate Bowls
Combine a balloon and dipping chocolate and you can make a chocolate bowl that's actually part of the dessert!
Supreme Grilled Salmon
Instead of reaching for the tin foil, throw down a layer of lemons onto the grill to take your boring salmon to the next level.
Smile Snacks
Apple slices, peanut butter and mini-marshmallows can easily be transformed into this healthy, creepy treat just in time for Halloween.
Question of the week: If you could take a vacation anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Taco Stand
Hard-shell tacos are definitely the best, but not when they fall to the side and all the ingredients fall out. use a fork to keep everything upright and in place.
Instant Vacuum Seal
Instead of buying an expensive vacuum-sealing machine, simply grab a straw and use your lungs instead.
Hanger Chip Clip
Clips from the bottom of broken clothes-hangers make a great chip clip in a pinch.
No More Bees
A cupcake wrapper with a straw punched through it can do wonders to keep your tasty beverage bug-free.
Frozen Chocolate Strawberries
If you like your chocolate strawberries to be more chocolate than strawberry, grab and ice cube tray and try this one out.
Jelly Worm In A Straw
This has to be the easiest way to make a creepy treat and these worms are sure to scare even the bravest trick o' treater.
Spring-Loaded Chopsticks
Chopsticks can turn even the most delicious meal into a frustrating nightmare. Simply add in a clothespin spring and your life will get 100% easier.
Quick Mushroom Chop
A hard-boiled egg slicer makes for a great mushroom slicer as well, as long as you know how to use it.
No More Burnt Cookies
Use a cheese grater to remove all that black stuff from the bottom of a burnt cookie. Now it's just pure deliciousness!
Salad In A Jar
Salads aren't usually seen as the best meal for someone on the move, but add a jar into the mix and the whole concept really starts to come together.
Mini Grilled Cheese
Make mini grilled cheese in seconds with a rolling pin, a slice of bread and American cheese slices. A side of tomato soup goes perfectly.
Which one of these food hacks is your favorite? Sound off in the comments!

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce this week is airing more than $10 million in advertising in some of the most competitive House and Senate races, a massive infusion by the business lobby against Democratic candidates in about 30 contests.
The amount is the single largest one-week expenditure by a group outside of the national political parties. The chamber has expressed a goal of spending $75 million in this year's election.
The boost in spending comes as liberal groups raise questions about the chamber's financial sources. The Center for American Progress and MoveOn.org suggest the trade group could be using foreign money to air the ads, which would be illegal. The chamber denies the claim. It says money raised from foreign corporations is segregated from its political spending.

The Bucket List Life believes that an excellent life well lived consists of creating more experiences, sharing those moments with others and the ultimate payoff, helping others without the expectation of return. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Bucket List Life -> Create More - Share More - Live More Model Life is not about what you do, but who you do it with. The Bucket List Life believes that an excellent life well lived consists of creating more experiences, sharing those moments with others and the ultimate payoff, helping others without the expectation of anything in return. These concepts, steps and themes are simple which is why they are so often overlooked. The Bucket List Life in its simplicity brings this to the forefront of people's minds and helps them start to feel alive, perform better in the workplace and share their most special moments with their closest friends and family. These moments are then positive core memories for the rest of our lives. Create More Experiences Through the creation of more life experiences, each person starts to wake up from their self-induced mental coma. They remember what it's like to learn something new, challenge themselves to grow and ultimately have that 'first timer' feeling again. These experiences are the base foundation of everything we desire in life so that we 'feel alive'! Share More Moments Once an experience has been completed, it's deep in our natural essence to share those moments and stories with others. We do this through social media, conversations at the office and storytelling around the proverbial campfire. It's these very stories that make what we do and have done…'real'. Sharing stories dates back to days of the cavemen with drawings on the wall. As humans, we tell stories and we share these very experiences with others through the recreation of the original event. Without sharing moments and experiences, there would be no evolution of our society. Live More Fulfilled The next step in having a fulfilled life is helping another human being. That very process of reaching down and lifting another person up through helping, without the expectation of return, is invaluable. The basic act of human kindness ripples exponentially through the receiver and anyone who witnesses it. In return, the shared experience fulfills the giver. To live more, we simply give/share our passions, expertise and skill sets to those that need it most. Fostering Excellence Ultimately, we can all create excellence in leadership in the world through focusing on our personal growth, followed by the learning time we have with friends/family and finally through our hearts in giving freely to our work/community. We then simply repeat for continued life success!

Clemson Researchers Optimizing End-To-End Movement Of 'Big Data'
CLEMSON, South Carolina — Today's scientists are riding an unprecedented wave of discovery, but the immensity of the data needed to facilitate many of these breakthroughs is creating internet roadblocks that are becoming increasingly detrimental to research.
Finding ways to deal with "Big Data," which is defined as data sets too large and complex for both traditional computers and average network throughput to handle, has become a science in itself.
But with an eye to the future, Clemson University researchers are playing a leading role in developing state-of-the-art methods to transfer these enormous datasets from place to place using the 100 gigabit Ethernet Internet2 Network. Owned by the nation's leading higher education institutions, the advanced Internet2 Network is the nation's largest and fastest coast-to-coast research and education infrastructure designed for next-generation scientific collaboration and Big Data transfer.
"We've leveraged advanced research networks from Internet2 and parallel file system technologies to choose the optimal ways to send and receive massive data sets around the country and world," said Alex Feltus, associate professor in genetics and biochemistry in Clemson University's College of Science. "What used to take days now takes hours – or even less. And these same methods apply to any project that uses large, contemporary data sets."
Genomics research is rapidly becoming one of the leading generators of Big Data for science, with the potential to equal if not surpass the data output of the high-energy physics community. Like physicists, university-based life-science researchers must collaborate with counterparts and access data repositories across the nation and around the globe.

For starters you need to download and run Malwarebytes, then do an online scan with SUPERantispyware. Once you run those and remove anything that they find, then run a scan with HitMan Pro.

Thank you so much for your time. I can say that my problem seems to be solved. I ran MBAM previously (before my original post) and of course, it picked up a few things. So, after running SAS, everything seemed to get back to normal. I then updated and ran MSE and it picked up 4 java exploits. Do you still suggest running Surfright?

Good to hear it. Yes, I would absolutely run Hitman Pro. Before you scan just uncheck tracking cookies in the settings menu. Let me know what you find!

Sounds like you're clean. Maybe just repeat the MBAM and HMP scans every few days for a couple of weeks to see if any of the signature updates catch anything.

Welcome to our website. We continuously strive to add new components and design features so your visit to it is more convenient, efficient and productive. A key function of Durvet.com is to be an extension of our corporate mission and a window to our company culture and character. The more time you spend with us here on the website – or with our distributor representatives in the field or our associates in the office – you'll see we approach every day with these goals in mind:
But there's more to it. Our mission is accomplished when we ensure our products and services result in Healthy Animals, Healthy Savings and Healthy Value for our distributors and their customers. Over the years we have operated efficiently to keep prices low while aiming for higher standards of service.
And we accomplish our mission by staying true to our core values:
Enjoy your visit. We applaud your dedication to the care and health of America's livestock and companion animals, and we will endeavor to earn your business and loyalty.
Todd Muenstermann President/CEO Durvet, Inc.
When Durvet opened for business in 1970, its doors were literally attached to a van carrying its animal health care products warehoused in a tiny 500 square foot rented facility. Durvet was the first entity in the OTC animal health market to be involved with both manufacturing and distribution, and this vision proved to be the model for the animal health supply chain business. Its original 13 distributor/owners had combined annual sales of $20 million. But from those modest beginnings, Durvet itself has grown to over $169 million in sales, while each year its 21 independent distributor shareholders sell in excess of $1 billion of animal health and agriculture products.
Over the years, Durvet has diversified its inventory with equine care and pet health lines. After tripling sales between 1994 and 2004, it expanded its facilities in Blue Springs, Missouri, and currently operates from a 78,000 square foot warehouse with state-of-the-art logistics and distribution technology. The Durvet organization employs 41 people at its Blue Springs headquarters and supports 50+ member distribution points with nearly 700 sales professionals strategically located around the country to meet the needs of livestock, equine and pet owners – offering them the product performance and affordability they demand.

Salon de Provence is one of Provence's oldest villages and derives its wealth from the production of olive oil and soap known as 'Savon de Marseille'.
Its wealth is seen in the neat and tidy 'vielle ville' with its leafy avenues bordered by plane trees and numerous cafes and restaurants. This is a great place to savour the 'real Provence'.
You also won't be short of things to do and see.
Salon was home to Nostradamus who married a local Salon girl and settled here as a doctor in 1547. However, it was his occult writings and poetry that gained him fame and fortune with Catherine de Medici travelling from afar to ask for advice. Nostradamus was particularly popular at the time but today Salon pays homage to its famous son in the Maison de Nostradamus.
Salon is a great place to base yourself if you're looking to venture out and discover the Bouches du Rhone and Vaucluse - you have the choice of surrounding Provencal villages, Aix en Provence, Marseille and the Camargue.

For the relaunch of Prindiville (a London-based bespoke coachbuilder), a lineup of performance enhancements and stylish visual tuning packages has been offered for three of the famous iconic vehicles of today -- the Ferrari 458, Range Rover Evoque and Lamborghini Aventador.
With its decades of experience in automotive design as well as carbon-fiber construction and engineering techniques, Prindiville has developed a personalization program for these three vehicles that will enable discerning individuals to enjoy a bespoke, one-of-a-kind vehicle that's manufactured by skilled British technicians and craftsmen.
The replacement body panels are made of aircraft-grade carbon fiber and provide weight savings of at most 65% versus standard items. At the same time, they offer an extra visual flourish that brings the Prindiville interpretation outside the traditional showroom variant.
Moreover, Prindiville has also developed titanium high-performance exhaust systems for the vehicles, which are around 80% lighter than the standard ones. High-flow induction systems and uprated ECUs boost power, making the most of the weight reduction. Also available are upgraded brakes and suspension packages.
In the interior, the Prindiville Design collection can be trimmed to the owner's preferences. They can choose from a wide array of luxurious leathers and other premium upholstery materials, which are available in a massive assortment of colors. Exclusive to the Prindiville Design are luxurious interior "jewellery packs", which changes the conventional cabin trim components with alternatives made from highly polished milled aluminum.
Taking its cue from both the Spanish Corrida and its own car making tradition, the new flagship from Lamborghini has the name of a bull. Aventador was the name of the bull that won the "Trofeo de la Peña La Madroñera" when it was entered into competition in 1993 at the Saragossa Arena.
Extreme dynamics: Meant for a Lamborghini
Design has always meant beauty in aggression for Lamborghini. That usually meant an elegant yet dynamic design. Even with only one look, the Aventador is undoubtedly a Lamborghini as it exudes all the characteristics and the one of a kind design philosophy of the car brand. It has powerful proportions, tight muscularity in all of the details, precise surfaces and exact lines.
The designers working at Centro Stile Lamborghini have meticulously developed the design language to give the new Lamborghini Aventador an edge. It is a masterpiece with its dynamic sculpture: from the front end through the very low roofline to the one-of-a-kind rear diffuser. Each line you see here has a clear use and every form is shaped by aerodynamics, but the overall appearance is breathtaking and spectacular.
The doors: Opening heavenward!
The car has a length of 4.78 meters, width of 2.26 meters and a very low 1,136 mm in height. With that impressive proportion, the doors add more allure by opening upward, the same feature that you have seen in the legendary Countach and all the V12 models that come out after.
Lamborghini Aventador, however, also takes its cue from the Murciélago, in that it has electronically managed air intakes that vary its opening based on the temperature outside and the demands for cooling air so that you get the best aerodynamics. If you want, you can opt to get a transparent engine bonnet to let people see the twelve-cylinder engine inside.

A budget of 2,000.00 per head, covered na ang transportation from Manila to Batangas Port, Ferry to Puerto Galera, Room, Dinner and Lunch.
A 2 - hour Ceres Bus ride from Gil Puyat (formerly buendia) to Batangas Port then another 1 hour Father & Son Line Ferry ride to White Sand Puerto Galera.
Along the coastline of Puerto Galera, you will see a lot of resorts offering from the cheapest to expensive accomodations. Yacht can also be seen and among others.
What I enjoyed the most during our 2 days stay sa Galera was the performances ng mga Fire Dancers. Amazed by there performances talaga ako, napakadelikado yet they were able to showcase their talent smoothly.
Maraming pwedeng gawin sa Puerto Galera, from Trekking to Banana boat ride, dahil kunti lang ang oras namin doon, hindi ko masyado na explore ang Galera as a whole at doon lang kami nagfocus sa beach area.
I am not a beach person kaya hindi ko masyado naenjoy ang lakad na to. Too crowded ang area. I guess hindi ako pangganitong venue. :P

As expected, Toyota unveiled today the 2014 Tundra at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show and honestly to tell you, this looks the most significant refresh of the popular pickpup since its launch as a 2007 model. According to the official press release, the 2014 Tundra will be available in five versions: the SR, colume-leading SR5, Limited, Platinum and 1794 Edition.
Regarding the design, the 2014 Toyota Tundra comes with a new hood and grille, chromed grille, new front lower bumpers with a three-piece design, a new bed design, an integrated spoiler and "Tundra" stamped into the sheet metal. The integrated spoiler in the deck helps with fuel efficiency, while the tail lamps express a tool-like quality to match the appearance of the body.
Like the front bumper, the rear bumper changes from one piece to three, for lower replacement costs. Inside, the 2014 Tundra was improved and focuses on styling differentiation between grades and improving the availability of features most important to truck buyers. The SR5 features a professional gear theme, with metallic accents and bold contrasting fabric.
Most importantly, the all-new design uses premium surface treatments to enhance interior quality and durability. The Limited grade features leather seating surfaces matching soft-touch stitched door and console surfaces, and wood-style interior trims. It will be available with Black, Sand Beige and Graphite leather-trimmed interiors and will have standard auto HVAC controls.
Platinum grade gets perforated black leather-trimmed seats with double-stitched diamond plate leather, door and instrument panel inserts, and chrome seat and console accent badging for an upscale yet urban feel.
Moreover, it receives many standard amenities, including a 12-speaker JBL audio system with Entune, heated and ventilated front seats, navigation and Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic Alert. The 1794 Edition offers a western lifestyle theme and includes exclusive premium saddle brown leather seating with embossed leather and ultra-suede accents.
Just like the Platinum, the 1794 Edition includes an array of standard features that includes heated and ventilated front seats, JBL audio and Entune, navigation and Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross Traffic Alert. The 2014 Tundra will be available with a choice of three engines. The entry-level 4.0-liter V6 engine (paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission) delivers 270 horsepower and 278 lb.-ft. peak torque.
The 4.6-liter V8 engine (paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission) offers 310 horsepower and 327 lb.-ft. of peak torque, while the 5.7-liter DOHC i-Force V8 (paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission) produces 381 horsepower and 401 lb.-ft. of peak torque, in both gasoline and "Flex Fuel" variants.

A Song of the Ascents. Unto Jehovah in my distress I have called, And He answereth me.

Sainsbury's are hosting a #Switchthefish campaign again this year to show their customers how tasty lesser known fish can be. I am a creature of habit and admit to choosing the same fish often. There are so many varieties to try so why not broaden your horizons? On Friday the 12th of June, customers who ask for one of the 'Big 5' fish will be offered a free portion of a lesser known fish. So make sure you get to Sainsbury's this Friday and catch one of the other many fish in the sea!
To inspire you to cook with lesser known fish, Sainsbury's have challenged 12 bloggers to share a fish recipe with our readers. I've chosen to cook with Sea Bass.
Serves 2
Original recipe here
2 x Sea Bass fillets
Olive oil
1 Tsp Dijon Mustard
1 Heaped Tbsp Capers
1 Lemon
Salt & Pepper
1-2 Maris Piper potatoes
2 cloves of Garlic (Minced)
Seasonal vegetables (We used french beans & roasted peppers)
To make the dressing, mix the Dijon mustard, Capers, a pinch of salt & pepper, 2 Tbsp of Olive oil, 1 Tbsp of Lemon juice & the zest of half a lemon.
Pre-heat your oven to 200c/ Gas mark 7.
Peel & chop your potatoes and boil until they are just soft. Lay on a baking tray, with the minced garlic, salt, pepper and a generous drizzle of olive oil. Toss the potatoes and bake from 40-50 minutes until golden (turning them every 15 minutes or so).
Line a baking tray with grease proof paper. Lay the fillets of Sea Bass skin side up on the tray, drizzle a little olive oil on top and season lightly with salt. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
Chop up a handful of parsley and mix into the dressing before lightly pouring over the cooked fish.
Serve with seasonal vegetables.
I really enjoyed this dish. It was so easy to put together and the fish barely took any time at all to cook. It tasted really nice, I will definitely be purchasing Sea Bass again and hope to try many other species of fish.
I hope you are feeling inspired!
