Perhaps even the library is not standard. Is this correct ? (I didn't have time to look too closely). m2c can produce c code, or produce the final binary. I am noticing, that modula compilers seem to get and use dependency info from the source. m2c handles this ok in the examples. It looks like one has to use an auxilliary program with mtc to generate a makefile with the proper dependencies written in , to compile the translated C code.

Should businesses be wary of employment tribunal verdicts being available online?
Employment tribunal verdicts have recently been made available to the public online, allowing anyone to search for decisions by company name or by topic.

If you need to install an HVAC unit in your home or replace a current unit, the cost of getting the unit put in is likely one of the biggest thoughts on your mind. No one has money to needlessly throw around, so there is little wonder why you want to know what the ticket on this job is going to run.
The HVAC contractors in Virginia that you select for the job is one of the biggest factors in the cost of installation of the unit. It is a good idea to request estimates from three to four contractors before you choose so that you can compare prices.
The type of unit that is being installed is another factor that influences the cost of installation. A larger, bulkier unit is going to cost more than a product that would be a simple install. Keep this information in mind when selecting your HVAC unit.
The area of Virginia in which you reside is also a factor that causes the prices of installation to change. The bigger cities have the lowest prices, so if you live in a small town that is near the city, you might consider looking at one of these names to save a little bit of cash.
Take advantage of any special offers, incentives, rebates, coupons, and/or discounts that you run across. Sometimes HVAC contractors make these available as an incentive to attract new customers. For you, this means significant savings, although the offers vary.
Expect to spend anywhere from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars to get your new unit installed. Although this may seem to be a lot of money, it is all worth the costs when all is said and done and you have an energy-efficient, easy-to-use HVAC system in your house.

Its quite addictive this nail art malarky, especially drawing on the leopard print, once you do one nail you can't stop!
I used Model's Own 'vintage pink' in a previous look (here) and loved the colour so wanted to use it again. In order to create a bit of a different look I also used Model's Own 'purple ash' as a contrasting colour. To create the leopard print detailing I used my Model's Own nail art pen (a very addictive thing).
I went out shopping yesterday and had loads of compliments, no one could quite believe that it wasn't a stamp and that I actually sat there and drew all the leopard print on!

In his soul-searching book entitled: 'Your Personal Titanic', author Ronald Hutchcraft uses the Titanic tragedy as the main illustration for his emphasis on the importance and significance of evangelizing the Lost. In so doing, he begins his book by recounting the tragedy in the following words (And I Quote)
"In the early 20th century, the R.M.S. Titanic was the crowning achievement of human technology- and yet an iceberg in the North Atlantic Ocean sent her to the bottom in 2 hours...For the seven hundred survivors- more than 1,500 passengers and crew died- the images of that horrific April night in the North Atlantic are unforgettable...
The survivor accounts of that night tell us that there were only twenty lifeboats aboard- about half of what was required to fully evacuate the ship. Most of them were only partially full, some were actually half-empty!
As the Titanic was sinking, many passengers were able to put on a lifejacket, but they could not find an available lifeboat. They jumped or fell into the ocean, left floating in the (cold) waters, crying into the night for help.
Again, there was room in the lifeboats for hundreds of them...Though those in the water continued to cry out for someone to rescue them, the people in the lifeboats just kept rowing away. They thought rescue was too risky. So out of those TWENTY lifeboats, only ONE finally turned back, in time to save only SIX passengers.
Three days later when the funeral ships arrived from Nova Scotia, they were greeted by a ghostly sight (of) life-jacketed men, women and children floating in the water, frozen to death. And why did they die? Not because the Titanic sank, but because the people who were already saved would NOT go back for the people who were not." (End of Quote)
With a much greater passion than the aforementioned author, Jesus (in our text this morning) also emphasises the importance and significance of evangelizing the Lost and Dying. But in so doing, He instead uses animal and crop farming as metaphors to drive home the point.
Similar to how it is lamentable that so many lives were lost in the story of the Titanic because those who were already saved in the lifeboats failed to rescue those who were not; so too it is lamentable that souls are dying daily while those of us who are already saved are virtually rowing away from them in our sanctified lifeboats!
Similar to how it is lamentable that wayward sheep and wasted harvests are at times ignored by farm-workers, so too it is lamentable that the backslidden and unsaved are at times ignored by those of us who are saved-sinners!
It is against this backdrop that the action and reaction of Jesus in this text serve as timely and timeless reminders of our duty and responsibility to rescue the perishing and care for the dying; to indeed snatch them from sin and the grave! To weep over the erring one and to lift up the fallen, to tell them of Jesus, the mighty to save!
And so, from this text we are reminded of 4 main things which are important in this regard:
According to verse 36, Jesus "saw the multitude".
Now, there is a distinct difference between "looking" at people and "seeing" people. Indeed it is possible to "look" at someone without "seeing" him or her. And thus many persons literally "look" at people, but very few actually "see" them!
If we are to take evangelism seriously we will need to be observant of people, in terms of "seeing" them and not just "looking" at them.
When we "see" the multitude as Jesus "saw" the multitude we will "see" them both "as they are" and "where they are". We will see them, not only in terms of "sight" but also in terms of "insight" and "foresight". In other words, not just in terms of their wants, but more importantly in terms of their needs. Not just in terms of who they are, but more importantly who they can become.
In the story of the Titanic it is obvious that those in the safety of the lifeboats kept rowing away because they "looked" at those in the ocean but never really "saw" them. In Jesus' metaphor within the text, it is obvious that the farm-workers only "looked" at the scattered sheep and the huge harvest but never saw each sheep and crop for what they were really worth!
What about us this morning? Do we really "see" people instead of just "looking" at them? How much do we take the time and make the effort to "see" people "as" they are and "where" they are? How much and how often do we "look" beyond their wants and "see" their needs? How much and how often do we "look" beyond who they are to "see" who they can become?
Now as we continue to explore this text within the context of evangelism, we not only see the importance of OBSERVATION but secondly we see the importance of:
Again according to verse 36, "When He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd."
Now 'Compassion' is quite an interesting word for 2 main reasons: For one, the Greek word actually means "a deep feeling about someone's difficulty or misfortune". And secondly in the New Testament it is often prefaced with the words "moved with", signifying that Compassion presupposes an "active" rather than a "passive" response to a given situation.
The sad fact is, many people may have "passion" but only a few have "compassion"!
Essentially, true Compassion moves from just "feeling" something to "doing" something, even if there are risks in or costs for doing so. Such was the case with Good Samaritan who, because of his compassion, reached out to help the half-dead man, even though it was both risky and costly!
In the story of the Titanic, those on the lifeboats who allegedly chose to row away quite likely did so because they feared that if they returned to rescue those in the water, their boats would be swamped and eventually sink. It was just too huge a risk to take!
Like Jesus, if we are to take evangelism seriously, we also need to be "moved with compassion" toward the multitude of souls that are lost and dying.
According to the verse, Jesus was so moved with compassion toward them Because Of and In Spite Of: Because of their Weariness (in that they had fainted) and In Spite of their Waywardness (in that they had scattered as sheep without a shepherd).
Please permit me here to elaborate a bit about this sheep analogy and imagery. You see, recently I stumbled upon an interesting and intriguing article on sheep where the writer notes the following:
- Sheep are slow learners.
- Sheep are stubborn animals.
- Sheep oftentimes stray.
- Sheep are copy-cats.
- Sheep are oftentimes unpredictable.
- Sheep are restless and oftentimes get little sleep.
- Sheep are very demanding creatures.
- Sheep are easy prey and are prone to many diseases.
- Sheep are extremely dependent on their shepherds.
Need I say more? True Compassion encourages and enables us to reach out to others in spite of their and indeed our own "sheepish" behaviour!
A further and closer examination the passage reveals that along with OBSERVATION and COMPASSION, the task of evangelism must also include:
In verses 37 to 38 Jesus then turns to His disciples and says to them: The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He will send forth labourers into His harvest."
The original Greek word for "Pray" here actually means "to entreat, to make a request, to beg or to petition". Its imagery is that of a citizen going to a king or a servant going to his master petitioning him for help.
In this statement to His disciples Jesus ostensibly asks and answers 3 important questions:
- Why the Petition? Answer: Because the harvest is plenteous and the crops will spoil if they are not reaped! This highlights the importance of urgency in reaching the Lost.
- Whom should we Petition? Answer: The Lord of the harvest. This point to the priority of prayer in all our evangelistic efforts.
- What should be the Petition? Answer: That He will send forth labourers into the His harvest. Note that Jesus did not say we should pray that sinners come into churches. Instead we are to go into the harvest field of the world and reap the souls that ripe and ready to be harvested!
On that note of going into the harvest field, the text implies a fourth and final important ingredient:
Again in the closing verses of our text, Jesus instructs His disciples to "Pray to the Lord of the harvest, that He will send forth labourers into His harvest." Who were these labourers that He was talking about? Well the answer is found in the opening verses of the very next chapter of Matthew where Jesus Himself calls them by name and commissions them to go and preach that the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. Of course, in that initial stage He told them to go primarily to the "Lost sheep of the house of Israel". But in the final days before His ascension into heaven, He told them the following: "Go therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always." The simple fact is, those disciples were to be the answers to their own prayers. In essence Jesus was telling them in Matthew 9 verse 38 that they were to prayerfully petition Him to send them into the harvest field to reap the harvest of souls!
Obviously Isaiah understood this principle very well when, as he records in Isaiah 6 verse 8, he heard the voice of the Lord asking, "Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?" And he instinctively and immediately responded by saying, "Here am I, send me."
Unfortunately, a number of us Christians today seem to be asking the Lord, "Where am You" instead of saying, "Here am I." And a number of us seem to be suggesting to the Lord, "Send them" instead of saying "Send me"!The fact is, if we are to take evangelism seriously, if we are to reach the Lost at any cost AND if we are to reap the harvest of souls, we must be in submission to the call of God be labourers in His vineyard.
Submission means yielding wholly and fully to the plan and purpose of God, in a way which says, "Wherever You lead me I will go." It speaks of living the sacrificial and surrendered life to the glory of God, and to do so in spite of our flaws, faults, failures, fears or frustrations. And speaking of flaws, faults, failures, fears and frustrations, we should always bear in mind that the 12 disciples were called and commissioned by the Lord even though He knew they were far from perfect.
Indeed they included persons such as Impetuous Peter who obviously had the "foot in mouth disease" in that he oftentimes talked before he thought. Furthermore, he was the guy who once said to Jesus, "I will die for You" and then a few days after, deny ever knowing Him! Then there were James and John, the Sons of Thunder (and may I add Lightning!), who seemingly had a serious temper problem, as in a flash they wanted to call down fire on a group of Samaritans because they prevented Jesus from passing through their hometown. Incidentally, these were the same brothers who requested of Jesus to grant them VIP seats in the Kingdom of God!
And who could forget that the 12 disciples included Doubting Thomas who demanded that he had to see for himself the nail-prints in order to believe that Jesus had truly risen from the dead!
Still Jesus called each and every one of them to be labourers in His harvest field! This morning He is still calling for more labourers to go into His harvest field and reap the harvest of souls that are there. This morning He is still inviting us to go into the highways and byways and rescue the perishing, while caring for the dying.
Maybe this morning He is calling or recalling someone to Pastoral Ministry or any other Ministry for that matter. Maybe this morning He is reminding someone of the promise or pledge they made months or years ago to be more involved in winning-souls for Christ. May we never be like those in the Titanic story who kept on rowing away from those who needed rescue and were dying in the cold North Atlantic Ocean (over 105 years ago).
In so doing, may we forever see the importance of Observation, Compassion, Petition and Submission as we join with Isaiah in declaring to the Lord, "Here am I, send me!" In Jesus name...Amen

This organization was formed in the wake of a terrible hate crime that left people all over West Virginia shocked and feeling powerless. Those of us from other parts of the state watched as this community came forward with positive action. As a mediator, dedicated to promoting understanding and peaceful resolution of conflict, I was impressed and encouraged to see the way Marion County made collaboration the center of their efforts to educate themselves and their neighbors about living beyond tolerance. I have been asked to speak at their Building Bridges of Respect Conference many times, and have always been eager to donate my time. The crown on their work, for me, is their full and respectful involvement of the youth of their community. This not only recognizes the dignity of their young people in the present, but is an investment that will yield benefits to us all.
Review from Guidestar
As a certified prevention specialist and someone who is very familiar with asset based community development I am quite impressed with the work of Communities of Shalom in Marion County, WV. I have participated in their Global Gathering, which celebrates the local nationalities and diversity of our area. I have been part of their Building Bridges conference which allows people of various backgrounds to learn more about community collaboration. I recognize them as an 13 year old organization committed to systemic and sustainable change.

text: I was on a job last week and there was a yard/garage sale across the street. Since I had parked my truck and trailer nearby I went over to let them know that I could move the truck as soon as I finished edging and blowing the driveway. One thing did catch my eye, it was a hand held Troy Built blower, looked brand new, for five bucks. The lady explained that her late husband had bought it and used it one time before his death. Anyway I bought the blower, and yes gasoline had been left in it for over a year. I poured out the gas and put in fresh. It will almost start, but that's not good enough. Would carb and choke cleaner do the trick, or do you think I will have to remove the carb, etc. Thanks in advance for any reply.

Hot Car Deal hunters please note:
- The car brokers and deals featured are not vetted, endorsed or recommended by Which?. Always check the specifics of the deal so you know exactly what you are getting and who is supplying the car. Make sure all aspects of the deal are confirmed in writing before committing to buy.
- Not all brokers deal in UK sourced vehicles, and this may have an impact on standard equipment and warranty levels.
- The term 'pre-reg' or 'pre-registered' refers to vehicles that are brand new but already registered with the DVLA. This means that you will appear as the second owner on the V5 registration document.
- Beware of unscrupulous brokers who tell you they will have to retain the V5 registration document for a period of time after your purchase of the car. Vehicles sold this way may be cheap, but there are legal implications, including the risk that you the buyer could be committing a criminal offence when you drive the car, so they should be avoided.

A spur of the moment mini-roadtrip along the Great Ocean Road
Great Ocean Road Travel Blog› entry 1 of 1 › view all entries
December 16th, 2009 – by: callufrax
On the Wednesday (the 16th), I set out fairly early. The day, unfortunately, started out as being rather cloudy and overcast, and some of the earlier photographs weren't all that great, due to the lousy lighting. However, as the day progressed, the cloud cover began to dissipate for a while. I quickly discovered that the Great Ocean Road is the RV capital of Australia. I've also never seen such a concentration of RVs anywhere in the world, including the USA and Canada.
As this was the first time I'd driven along the Great Ocean Road, for quite some time, some changes were quite noticeable, such as the new visitor's center and parking lot at the Twelve Apostles (of which there are no longer 12 of them!), and the remains of London Bridge.
After a day's driving, I finished up at Warrnambool (the city I lived in during my primary school years) for the night. The original plan had been to sightsee around Warrnambool, and continue on to Port Fairy, the next day. However, the weather put an end to those plans. Instead, I decided to make the grueling 1341 km (833 mi) drive back to Sydney, through some of the most featureless landscapes I've ever seen - the 'Hay Plains'.

Strength Training
I need some help with this. I have NO experience with strength training.
We have a bowflex and I want to use it. I enjoy cardio (I love the rush once I do half an hour of it), but since my plateau, I realize I need to add in strength training. Doing many reps with 3lb and 5lb weights just isn't going to cut it (Jillian Michaels videos).
So, has anyone worked with a bowflex or have any suggestions? I am going to watch some youtube videos and such for form, but other than that...I need help!
Re: Strength Training
I don't have a whole lot of experience either, just getting started so I'm hoping for suggestions too. Right now I have just been doing a few arm exercises I found online with some 8lb (plenty heavy for me atm, I can only do 10-15 reps with them) weights.
As far as I've figured out researching thus far, it's better to do fewer reps with more weight to really build muscle, but that's all I have really nailed down so far lol.
Re: Strength Training
I'm also pretty new to weights. I did a 10 minute solution target toning video last month that really made my muscles burn, but a lot of the stuff on there used your own body weight. I've also heard that using heavier weight for less reps is better for gaining muscle.
Re: Strength Training
When I started strength training I felt the exact same way. I had no idea what to do. My sister told me about Body for Life and I used their program for 12 weeks. I think it is a great program for beginners. Body-for-LIFE Weight Training
Now I do something a little different, but similar.
I do 2 exercises per muscle group
Chest, Back, Shoulders, Biceps, Triceps, Quads, Hamstrings, Calves, & Abs
I do 3 sets of reps for each exercise. I start with a lighter weight that I can do a set of 12 of. The next set I add weight to (usually 5 lbs) and try to do another set of 12. Then I do a third set (add another 5 lbs) and just do as many as I can. Once I can do 12 reps on the third set I bump everything up so if I was doing 10 lbs, 15 lbs, and 20 lbs, the next time I work out I would do 15, 20, and 25.
I made myself workout logs that lists all the exercises. I have two workout logs because I rotate some of the exercises for example, on Monday I do bench presses, on Wednesday I do incline bench presses. This way I can get a bigger a variety of exercises.
I found a great site that lists all kinds of bowflex exercises.
Bowflex Exercises | Your Guide to Bowflex Exercises
I would pick two exercises per muscle group to do for your workouts. And personally I like splitting it up between upper body and lower body, otherwise your workouts can get really long. I used to do a full body workout three times a week but it took forever.
I would definitely keep a log. This way you can track your progress and know when to increase the amount you are lifting.
I am not the weight training expert but if you have any questions or need help I'll do my best to help you. I would love to see more girls doing strength training over here.
Re: Strength Training
Here's what my workout logs look like just to give you some ideas. I added a glutes section to the legs because I wanted that and some of the exercises don't fit into their category perfectly. Dh skips all the glutes exercises LOL. I don't have my ab routine on here but I thought this might give you some ideas.
Re: Strength Training
Wow, Patty, so organized!
I don't have a lot to add, I don't have a big piece of weight equipment like the bowflex, most of my strength is done with free weights/bar weights (when I'm at the gym) and bodyweight training.
Re: Strength Training
Ohhh Patty! Thank you for sharing those!!!! Going to print them off! You are super organized!
I used the link you provided above, and did some of those this morning, 3 reps of 12 each, at 30lbs, 35lbs and then 40lbs....I could barely finish them so I think that's my starting weight for back/chest/arm exercises. I did some dead lifts, and I could easily complete them at that weight so I'll up them, but I kinda figured my legs would be stronger.
I'm getting super excited for this, thank you again Patty!
I don't have a gym membership and I workout while Cam naps so anything I can do at home :D

[Plugin: Advanced Post List] Using shortcodes in List content section.
First of all, I want to publicly thank the developers of this amazing plugin. It's just awesome for us developers.
That been said,
I have figured out a way to insert shortcodes in the List content section, so you can enhance even more the power of this plugin.
Hope this is helpful for you guys.
1.- Do the known to get [php_function name="function_name" param=""] enabled in the APL. Please refer to (kalinbooks site).
2.- Create a function in wp-config.php immediatly after defining the constant "KALINS_ALLOW_PHP" similar to the following:
define("KALINS_ALLOW_PHP", true); function sh_code($post, $shcd){ $shcd=str_replace('#','"',$shcd); //needed to parse " marks if(function_exists('do_shortcode')){ $output=do_shortcode('['.$shcd.']'); }else{ $output="[error: do_shortcode function doesn't exist!]"; } return $output; }
3.- Use the [php_function name="function_name" param=""] code like this -in the List content section-:
[php_function name="sh_code" param="gallery id=#[ID]# size=#medium# columns=#3#"]
NOTE: Pay special attention to the use of «[ID]» and «#» in the example .. «[ID]» is an APL code that is parsed before the param is.
Well, that's it. I have successfully proven this so, This WORKS!
Enjoy it!
Again, thanks to the authors of this amazing plugin.

"The Phantom Creeps" was Universal's 44th sound-era serial (between "The Oregon Trail" and "The Green Hornet")and was re-issued to theatres in 1949 by Commonwealth Pictures Corporation, a distribution set-up handling primarily Universal re-issues. Commonwealth had no hand at all in the production of this serial (as incorrectly shown on site) as they were a distribution company only. Some sources mistakenly identify them as the serial producer because all of the 1949 re-issue prints (and the 16mm prints sold to television circa 1952) show "Commonwealth Pictures Corp. Presents" above the title.There is a whole lot of difference between "presenting" and "producing", a fact that some sources appear to not know or don't care. The serial is of interest to some collectors as it re-unites Bela Lugosi and Edwin Stanley from 1931's "Dracula", and the crater-discovery of the meteorite fragment by Zorka (Bela Lugosi)in the serial is stock footage from Universal's 1936 "The Invisible Ray." The stock footage of an explosion and avalanche used in Chapter 11 comes from Universal's 1934 serial, "The Vanishing Shadow." Plot finds eccentric scientist Dr. Alex Zorka (Bela Lugosi)carrying on various experiments in his secret laboratory with the aid of his assistant Monk (Jack C. Smith). Zorka has invented many strange weapons of warfare, including a devisualizer belt which renders him invisible; a terrifying, eight-foot tall robot (played by stuntman Edwin "Bud" Wolfe and not circus giant Bud Wolff), and he also has a deadly meteorite fragment (which he found in a 1936 movie with Boris Karloff)from which he extracts an element which can induce suspended animation in an entire army. Foreign spies, operating under the guise of a foreign language school (great cover), are trying to buy or (mostly) steal the meteorite element, while his former partner, Dr. Fred Mallory (Edwin Stanley), miffed that Zorka will not turn his inventions over to the U. S. Government, blows the whistle on him to Captain Bob West (Robert Kent) of the Military Intelligence Department. Tired of answering the door and saying no to the spies and the government, Zorka moves his lab and when his beloved wife (Dora Clement) is killed, Zorka, puttering around for his own amusement up to this point, gets hacked off as only Lugosi can, swears eternal vengeance against society, and decides to use his inventions to make himself world dictator. And would have if not for his assistant Monk, an escaped convict virtually enslaved by Zorka, who is cowardly, treacherous and totally incompetent, and whose accidental or deliberate interference with Zorka's efforts repeatedly frustrates his master's grand schemes.

UK pressing for small business exemptions from WEEE Directive
The Government is optimistic that the costs of proposed EC legislation on electrical and electronic equipment will be sharply reduced by exemptions for small businesses, Industry Minister Patricia Hewitt has told a House of Commons hearing. But views on when mandatory collection of waste equipment should begin remain polarised among both governments and industry, with some arguing for a lead-in of 18 months but others demanding five years.

Versatile and strong, the ASUS will provide all the needed computational power a typical user might anticipate from a laptop. This laptop has a rather sleek design and it's a sports machine which every gamer would really like to walk around with. Inside this post, we'll discuss ASUS K501UX-AH71 laptop. It is a terrific laptop to use around the home and at the workplace. This notebook might not have the optimal/optimally memory and storage but it's still decent to execute some basic tasks. Granted, this laptop needs a lot of some improvements. Here, we'll review the ideal laptop for photoshop that are not very costly but are strong enough to support the photo editing computer software.
Storage space might appear short initially, but don't forget the laptop has a good state drive installed. It won't be a problem with the Asus K501UX 15.6-inch because it comes with a decent 256GB solid-state hard drive. Advanced storage Inside the laptop also includes a tremendous 1TB hard drive and quick 128GB SSD. You are able to test the hardware in another system to learn whether the matter results from the hardware. Software isn't as plentiful but you'll locate what you require. However, when you wish to use this editing tool effectively, you have to have a laptop which is capable of supporting the program.
While not the most effective in the marketplace, most users should locate a lot to be pleased with in this high-powered little machine. I believe this is the ideal configuration which gives better performance whilst gaming. In this instance, you have to carry out a clean installation of the application.
The K501UX doesn't have the best in regards to battery life. ASUS K501UX is very good for activities requiring a good deal from the processor. The Asus K501UX may not be the ideal laptop out there with regard to performance and price. Regarding connectivity, the Asus K501UX isn't far behind the most recent computer systems on the market. The Asus K501UX(-AH71) is among the most inexpensive laptops geared toward gaming.
Additional information about your system will assist in checking on that which we are able to do to help. Additional information is found in our Notebook Purchase Guide. This usually means that to be able to upgrade, you'll have to eliminate the four gigabyte module and install an 8 gigabyte one.
Aside from the case being aluminum, it's also blue in color making it seem super slim. Whether there are driver problems, Driver Talent will inform you to really repair them. This could help to correct this issue resulting from the driver. For those who have any issue, contact us. If your solution is Yes, you may want to take a close look at the Asus K501UX. So that's the normal thing. In addition, we recommend to have a on-line course to learn how to use the software 100 percent.

4 Essential Tech Tools for Your HR Department
Technology is essential to running most businesses nowadays, and few departments can benefit from a tech boost more than human resources. With the right tools, you can manage, track and engage your employees, all from your mobile device or computer. Here are four types of HR tech tools that businesses of any size can implement for a happier, better organized workforce.
Recruiting software
As the name implies, recruiting software helps you streamline the hiring process. You can post job ads, sort and accept applications, manage candidates and more, saving you the hassle of manually tracking everything yourself.
For small businesses in particular, you'll want to check out the pricing and features on each solution you consider: Many recruiting programs are geared toward bigger companies with large volumes of applicants, so you may be better served by a less expensive product with fewer capabilities, depending on your hiring needs. Check out Business News Daily's best picks for recruiting software here.

Let's begin with the basics. What is a theme, for instance? A theme refers to a collection of flowing/coordinated elements which together constitute the full look and feel of your signage digital display. Many elements are taken into consideration when creating or choosing a theme. A few of them include layouts, bulletin backgrounds, logos, templates, layout wallpapers, weather modules and date/time modules among others.
Benefits of themes
- Having a theme creates better visual appeal than choosing backgrounds that don't match with the content. In themes, all elements are carefully selected and coordinated to create a certain effect.
- You can use a theme as a reinforcement of your corporate identity or brand.
- It is easier and faster to command attention on a beautiful screen as well as the gain better grasp of the information presented.
- There is a wide selection of themes and regularly changing them may keep your followers on their toes, eager to see your next move.
- They add an air of sophistication even to simple content.
- If you want to go for a new look or a transformation, you can achieve it by simply changing your theme – no need to burden your content creators.
When thinking about designing a theme, be creative. There are guidelines, of course, but you can make a theme anything that you want it to be. Draw from sources that inspire you as a designer or brand owner and create a theme you and your audience connect with. A few ideas include:
- Branding – create themes that work into your organizational or brand identity.
- Holidays – match your digital signage with the major celebrations!
- Seasonal – you have at least four looks to explore every year.
- Colors – create a series of themes that draw from your branding color palette.
- Departmental – different themes for pages highlight different parts of the organization.
- Décor – align you themes to your physical ambiance.
What are templates?
Templates are pre-designed layout blocks or blueprints, which content creators can then just use to fit content in for a complete look. Templates are usually designed by the digital signage manager, according to a business owner's tastes and requirements. They include background images, text blocks, image blocks and text styles. All that needs to be done is to fit in content.
Why are templates important?
- Templates help you to maintain control over the look and feel of your digital signage – content creators have a standard to follow.
- They are an avenue for you to reinforce your branding standards.
- They contribute from others much easier and faster.
- They eliminate the need for all contributing parties to have some digital knowledge or creative abilities.
- The administrator can limit the number of people allowed to change and edit templates by restricting user account permissions.
Last word
Now that you know what themes and templates are and the different roles they play, you are well on your way to being able to create the best corporate digital signage and redefine your brand online. Effective use of templates and themes will give your digital signs that look of sophistication and professionalism that everyone will appreciate.

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen
We'll start this one with a disclaimer. The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, along with every other Alan Moore-owned property, is probably the least likely comic in the world to ever be adapted into a Lego game. We're going to delude ourselves for a bit and imagine it as a possibility.
The League comics feature an unorthodox team of Allan Quartermain, Mina Harker, Edward Hyde, Captain Nemo, and other popular British literary heroes. As with the other games, each would bring their own abilities to the table. Quartermain has his guns. Hyde is a towering brute. Mina, on the other hand, would probably be forced to borrow a page from the horrendous League movie and display vampiric powers.
All three books offer a wealth of potential for gaming scenarios. The first pits the team against the fiendish Professor Moriarty and Fu Manchu. The second sees the team attempt to repel the alien invaders from War of the Worlds. Black Dossier may not make for a great game in the traditional sense, but the numerous flashback material would make for great single dose levels featuring other literary heroes.
The important thing is that the sky is truly the limit when you're dealing with a series that combines every public domain character into one meta-verse. The Lego trappings would provide just the right pinch of fun and charm.
Justice League of America
Obviously we're writing this article in honor of Lego Batman. Batman is Lego's first foray into the world of comics, but we hope it's not the last. The most natural extension of this franchise beyond the inevitable Lego Batman 2 is Lego Justice League.
Lego Batman already has a respectable cast of heroes ad villains. Think how much grander a Lego game could be with the full stable of DC's finest heroes to choose from. Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, and Flash are obvious choices. The same goes for iconic villains like Lex Luthor, Sinestro, and Gorilla Grodd. Wed love to see the game go much further, though, including fan favorites like Blue Beetle and Booster Gold alongside the bigger names.
It's hard to imagine all the various directions this game could venture in. Should the developers use the Grant Morrison era of JLA as inspiration? What about the Justice League International era. Or maybe a more classic story inspired by the likes of JLA: New Frontier? The potential is ripe in a game like Lego: Justice League.
Incredible Hulk
We've all seen Hulk smash in videogames. However, what happens when Hulk smashes Legos? Hmm?
The only thing more fun than constructing massive Lego structures is tearing them down mercilessly. That's essentially Lego Hulk in a nutshell. The game would turn Hulk loose in a massive, fully realized version of Legoville. The missions might vary, but it all boils down to causing as much destruction as possible. We're picturing of something along the lines of a next-gen sequel to Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction, but with that childlike flair only Legos can provide.
To do this game right, the developers will have to grow a little more ambitious. No longer is the linear, segmented approach to level design going to cut it. Hulk needs a full, open-ended world to run around in. Multiplayer should be an important element, but perhaps not as much as past games. After all, Hulk has little in the way of friends.
We would like to see numerous unlockable costume for Hulk – Gray Hulk, Smart Hulk, King Hulk, and Maestro, just to name a few. Naturally, other characters like Doc Samson, She-Hulk, The Leader, and The Abomination are must-haves as well. Hulk and Abomination never seem to get along, but they could work out some aggression together by destroying Legoville down to its very foundations.
Before you go thinking that only marvel and DC heroes have potential as Lego franchises, take Image's Invincible under consideration. This series is family friendly (to an extent), and we could see it working very well as a Lego action-adventure title.
Lego Invincible could follow the series relatively beat for beat, with the occasional side quest thrown in for good measure. Retaining the co-op focus of past Lego games, players would start out controlling Mark Grayson and his father as Mark learns the ropes of being a hero. Later levels will allow the likes of Atom Eve, Robot, and numerous others to join the fray.
However, Lego Invincible is another title we'd like to see veer away from the straightforward formula of past games. Taking a cue from the recent Spider-Man games, we'd enjoy taking control of mark and patrolling the streets of the city. Outside of the main quest, this allows Invincible to solve crimes and vanquish muggers in the streets of Legoville. Hopefully the game would provide a bit more variety in these side missions that the Spider-Man games do.
Last, but certainly not least, is the plucky crew of vampire slayers at Sunnydale. Buffy may be primarily a TV show, but the Season 8 comic is enough to qualify it for consideration. If you don't like it, you must be a Buffy hater.
The show certainly has a cast worthy of Lego interpretation. As with any good Lego game, each character has their own unique talent to bring to the fold. Buffy is agile and stabs things with her stake. Willow has her witchy powers. Xander can do... whatever it is he does when he's not possessed by a hyena spirit. We don't expect one game could follow the show in its entirety, but that's why nature invented sequels.
Perhaps Buffy's most signature element is its humor, and we'd love to see how that humor translates to a silent Lego game. Can Lego figures accurately pantomime Joss Whedon's trademark wit? The surest way to find out is to bring in Whedon himself. We'd rather see him devote his time to a project like Lego Buffy than the ill-conceived Buffy and Firefly MMORPGs.
Those are our picks for comic book franchises that should make the jump to the realm of Lego videogames. What are your ideas? Sound off in the comments thread below.
