"Sales went up after migrating to the IRP platform. We see lots of potential growth in the future."
Marc Moore, CEO, Source BMX, Largest online BMX store in the world
Our customers are generally from the SME to mid-market sector and fit into one of four tiers based on their online turnover:
We have had Tier 1 customers with online turnovers of more than £170 million. IRP technology has also been a great fit for companies in Tier 2 who want to continue growing.
The IRP is a perfect and popular choice for businesses in Tier 3. If your business is in Tier 3, you are in a great position to reap the benefits of IRP technology.
We don't want you to stay in the tier you start in. Once onboard with the IRP, we want to see you grow. And keep growing.
Many things affect the growth potential in a market, including the strength of competition, the demand for products and the resistance to growth within the market. But we want to see our customers realise the full growth potential of the market they are in.
However fast you grow, the IRP will keep pace and meet all your platform requirements.
All of our customers are different. But most of them do have two things in common:
– Their previous solution was stalled or was generating very slow growth and so they have chosen to re-platform and to adopt a solution in which the technology provider is vested in their success;
– They have a strong desire to grow their online business.
The IRP creates an environment for rapid and sustained growth. If you're ambitious for your business to grow, join with us.
"The IRP platform means service, dependability and results. We would easily recommend the IRP to a company wanting to compete on a global scale."

About CHCI
In 1978, a small group of Hispanic members of Congress established CHCI to develop the next generation of Latino leaders with a clear vision of a strong America made possible with the many contributions of educated and civic-minded Latino leaders engaged in and contributing to all aspects of U.S. society. This vision was founded on three cornerstones for success: education attainment and college access, leadership development programs in D.C. and access to a powerful network of Latino leaders in the United States. Today, CHCI is the premier Hispanic nonprofit and nonpartisan 501(c)(3) leadership development organization in the country, firmly rooted in the same three mission cornerstones laid by our founders: educate, empower, connect.

Freemasons parade in Leicester City Centre for first time in nearly 100 years
As part of the United Grand Lodge of England's 300th Anniversary celebrations, Freemasons from across Leicestershire and Rutland took part in a historic parade through the streets of Leicester – which last occurred in 1923
In glorious sunshine, over 100 Freemasons of all ages gathered in Jubilee Square wearing their Masonic Regalia and subsequently paraded to Leicester Cathedral via the High Street, Gallowtree Gate, Market Place, Grey Friars and on to St Martins prior to a Service of Thanksgiving.
During the 18th and 19th Century, Freemasons regularly took part in public processions including assisting with the laying of many foundation stones for buildings such as the Town Hall and the Children's Hospital at Leicester Royal Infirmary. The last occasion was on the 24th June 1923, when a special Masonic Service was held at St George's Church to commemorate the Centenary of the laying of the first Foundation Stone in 1823.
A 20-piece brass band, consisting of members from Croft Silver Band, Wigston Band, Kibworth Band and Foresters Band, began to play at precisely 2pm and proceeded on the route. The Freemasons, including several Masters of Lodges, were lined up in two rows, and followed the band in procession and a steady pace. At the rear was the Provincial Standard Bearer bearing the Leicestershire and Rutland Banner, who was leading the Provincial Grand Master David Hagger, Assistant Provincial Grand Master Peter Kinder and the UGLE's Deputy Grand Secretary Graham Redman.
Many shoppers in the area were intrigued at the unusual sight of the Masonic procession and stopped to watch as it went by. The Procession arrived promptly at Leicester Cathedral at 2.15pm and was welcomed by the Dean, Very Reverend David Monteith who conducted the Service of Thanksgiving.
The Provincial Grand Master David Hagger said: 'This was a wonderful occasion to mark the Tercentenary of the formation of the first Grand Lodge in the world. I sincerely thank all the brethren who took part in this historic procession, the likes of which Leicester hasn't seen for nearly 100 years.
'I hope that it will lead to further interest and a better understanding of our historic society which has been an integral part of our local communities for 300 years.'
iSight Cornwall receive £15,000 MCF Grant Award Boost
iSight Cornwall has received a significant donation of £15,000 via the Masonic Charitable Foundation Grant Awards
iSight Cornwall, who are based in Newham, Truro, were presented with a £15,000 Community Award from the Freemasons of Cornwall following a successful public vote organised with the Masonic Charitable Foundation. The Community Awards are a major part of Freemasonry's 300th anniversary celebrations.
iSight Cornwall was one of six self-funded charities who were recently nominated by the Cornish Freemasons with everyone encouraged to vote, including family members, friends and the general public, the public vote deciding the level of Award each charity would receive. The Masonic Charitable Foundation is distributing three million pounds to 300 charities across the country, with awards ranging from £4,000 to £25,000.
It is estimated that there are some 22,000 people living with sight loss in Cornwall, a figure that is expected to grow to 32,000 over the next 15 years. Founded in 1856, iSight Cornwall is the only charity in the county dedicated to supporting people with sight loss to lead active and independent lives.
Terri Rosnau-Ward, Chief Executive of iSight Cornwall, said: 'We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone that took the time to vote for us, we really appreciate your support. This award will help us to extend our Community Development service so that we can reach even more people living with sight loss across Cornwall and to give them the support and advice they need. We would especially like to thank the Provincial Grand Lodge of Cornwall for nominating us for these amazing MCF Awards.'
Mike Pritchard, the Provincial Grand Charity Steward for the Province of Cornwall, commented: 'The response we've received to the MCF Awards, nationally, has been outstanding, but especially so here in Cornwall. The support for the six self-funded charities nominated has also been immense and shows how much local charities mean to the Cornish communities. I feel extremely proud to have been invited to present this award and see for myself what an incredible charity iSight Cornwall is.
'The support and equipment available to visually sight impaired people is staggering, I've seriously had my eyes opened to some very special equipment that I didn't realise even existed, but clearly is essential to so many.'
The Provincial Grand Master for Cornwall Stephen Pearn added: 'To have met so many wonderful Cornish charities in the last few years is a truly remarkable and emotional experience. The welcome, together with the extra special tour I received at iSight Cornwal,l has been extremely special and a day I will remember for a long time to come.
'To present £15,000 to this special charity fills me with joy knowing what a difference this will make for them and it's so well deserved. The support all the charities have received in these MCF Awards has been staggering and I sincerely wish to thank everyone – especially the Cornish public for their support.'

East Kent supports Canterbury Cathedral's apprentice Stonemasons
East Kent Freemasons have given a grant of £31,000 to the Canterbury Cathedral Trust to support the fourth year's training for a young apprentice stonemason at the Cathedral, which comes through the Masonic Charitable Foundation
At a recent ceremony, Provincial Grand Master Geoffrey Dearing, presented the donation to the Dean of Canterbury, the Very Reverend Dr Robert Willis, saying how pleased the fraternity was to be able to continue their support for the scheme.
In reply, the Dean thanked him and all who had contributed saying how much it meant to the Cathedral and to the young apprentices who were just coming into 'these wonderful crafts here at the Cathedral'.
The apprenticeship programme at the Cathedral offers vocational training to young people that is truly life-changing. Seven apprentices are currently employed at Canterbury – four stonemasons, one painter and decorator, one scaffolder and one chef.
Apprentices are recruited through Kent schools, colleges and advertisements in the local press. Coming from varied backgrounds, they are encouraged to explore their creative talents within the inspirational setting of the Cathedral as well as developing the technical and life skills needed for a career in their chosen trade or craft. Whilst these training placements are exceptional opportunities in their own right, the Cathedral also makes every effort to provide subsequent employment for the apprentices.
Heather Newton, the Head of Conservation at the Cathedral, explained how the donation would be used: 'We are incredibly grateful to the Freemasons of East Kent and to the Masonic Charitable Foundation for this continuing support. There are lots of expenses associated with training Craft apprentices.
'We need to cover everything from travelling costs to and from College, to tools, specialist clothing and the time of more experienced Masons who act as trainers and mentors for our young people.'
This latest grant is in addition to the gift of over £300,000 presented to the Cathedral by the Provinces of East and West Kent, Surrey and Sussex, as part of the celebration of the Tercentenary of the founding of the United Grand Lodge of England in 1717. It continues a long and much valued relationship with the Mother Church of the worldwide Anglican Communion which dates back over 150 years.
Cornish Freemasons donate £25,000 to Blood Bikes charity
The Freemasons of Cornwall have donated £25,000 via the Masonic Charitable Foundation Grant to the Cornwall Blood Bikes charity, after it received the most votes in a countywide public poll
Thanks to this remarkable donation, the charity is buying a brand new 1200cc BMW response bike and two further second-hand bikes upgrading its ageing fleet that runs throughout the year in all weathers.
Cornwall Blood Bikes was one of six self-funded organisations in the county to be nominated for the Masonic Charitable Foundation (MCF) Awards, which saw £3 million handed out to 300 charities and other organisations across the UK as part of its Tercentenary Year of celebrations.
All 80 Lodges, their Brethren, together with family members and friends took part in the vote. The promotion and support for the MCF Grant Awards within the local communities resulted in an unprecedented local response.
The Blood Bikers received the highest out of a £58,000 pot of cash for Cornwall, with iSight Cornwall receiving £15,000, Bosom Buddies UK £4,000, Penhaligon's Friends £4,000, Young People Cornwall £4,000 and Ellie's Haven Cornwall £6,000.
The volunteer bikers, who transfer life-saving medical supplies out of hours across the county and further afield saving the NHS in Cornwall around £250,000 each year in taxi fares, arrived at Truro Cathedral to meet the Provincial Grand Master for the Province of Cornwall, Stephen Pearn for the official cheque presentation.
Ian Butler, Fundraising Manager for the Blood Bikes, thanked the public and Masonic Lodges of Cornwall for their amazing support: 'To have this amount of money donated to us is fantastic. It is an iconic day in the Blood Bikes history. We have been overwhelmed by the public response and want to thank the Freemasons across all of Cornwall for their support. It would take nearly two years and a lot of hard work to raise that amount of cash.
'We have already ordered a brand new BMW that is due to arrive in April next year. We are also buying two second-hand bikes to replace two in the fleet that have clocked up 140,000 miles each. The new bikes will cut down on maintenance and off-road time as well as making us more efficient. This is a brilliant start to our campaign to update our fleet of machines.'
Speaking at the official presentation, Provincial Grand Master Stephen Pearn said he was delighted for the Blood Bikes: 'The donation from The Masonic Charitable Foundation will literally save lives and it's also a great way to advertise what the charity does. Cornwall's Masonic Benevolent Fund has been supporting a lot of communities across Cornwall for many years. It's a great organisation that is fun to be a part of as well as helping others. Our members come from all walks of life."
The Charity Steward for Caradon Lodge No. 8543, who meet in Saltash, Ross Fisher, has been giving blood since he was 18 was especially pleased with the Blood Bike's donation: 'Since 1995 I have been donating platelets (these are formed in the blood and help it clot and to stop bleeding). Last week was my 250th donation. I have four times more platelets in my blood than the average man. I keep fit and well and feel very proud that I'm able to help others in times of need. The Blood Bikes are a dedicated team giving their time to keep such a vital service running.'
Also attending Saturday's presentation were several volunteer bike riders local to the St. Austell area. The oldest member of the Blood Bikes team, Conrad Dowding 80, from Launceston, who is still enjoying life on two wheels, said: 'I joined the charity after I lost my wife, Pam to breast cancer. I couldn't do anything to help her which is why I joined the Blood Bikes team. It was my way of giving something back. I feel part of a great team that is working together to do something worthwhile. We get no NHS funding, we use our own bikes and we work out of hours and can be called on at anytime.'
Five other local Cornish charities also won substantial grants totalling £33,000 and can be viewed here.

A new and exciting exhibition opened in Leicester on Friday 6th October 2017, as local Freemasons marked the celebration of the 300th anniversary of the formation of their governing body, the United Grand Lodge of England
The exhibition provides insights into what Freemasonry is all about and how it has become a significant social institution that is supportive towards local communities.
Freemasonry, What's it all About? explores the intriguing relationship between present, past and the future of Freemasonry across Leicestershire and Rutland. The exhibition covers well known historical figures and Freemasons of Leicestershire and Rutland through the years and showcases current into Freemasonry and its members, as well as featuring a look into the future of Freemasonry.
This welcoming local journey through Freemasonry shares personal stories and insights of Freemasons across the ages, particularly those that have affected the counties of Leicestershire and Rutland.
The Provincial Grand Master of the Leicestershire and Rutland Freemasons, David Hagger, said: 'Freemasonry provides a unique environment for people from all backgrounds to learn skills, make lasting friendships and achieve their potential. This exhibition is an exciting project and I hope it will lead to further interest and a better understanding of our historic fraternity.'
The exhibition is a collaborative project between Leicestershire and Rutland Freemasons, Newarke Houses Museum and the Leicestershire and Rutland Record Office, bringing together a varied and engaging exhibition for all. The exhibition has been kindly constructed by volunteers at the WMG Academy for Young Engineers, Coventry with printing by Gartree Press Ltd, Leicester.
Freemasonry, What's it all About? has been developed and created by a young and exciting local curator, Sophia Kyprianou in conjunction with local Freemasons. She commented: 'Throughout my time working on the exhibition I have been amazed at how much Freemasonry is supportive, committed and involved at the heart of so many local communities across the counties. Unearthing stories from past and present Freemasons has been incredibly interesting and is something I am keen to share with the public in a creative way throughout the exhibition; giving an insight into what Freemasonry is and how it continues to be an integral part of modern society.'
The exhibition was formally opened by the Pro Grand Master of the United Grand Lodge of England, Peter Lowndes on a visit to the region.

"Silver Surfers" get online with grant from Leicestershire and Rutland Freemasons
Older people who have never learned to use the internet are to be helped online thanks to a £66,000 grant to Age UK Leicester Shire & Rutland from Leicestershire and Rutland Freemasons
Age UK will recruit at least 20 "Digital Champions" who will support and guide 2,000 older people to use communication tools like email, Skype and FaceTime, which younger people take for granted.
The Digital Champions project is aimed at helping these older people to access online information on everything from benefits to bus timetables. With many services becoming digital by default, older people who are not online face more hurdles in their daily lives to access both private and public sector services. There will also be an emphasis on online safety and protection from viruses and fraud.
The project is supporting older people across Leicestershire and Rutland, with a focus on people in rural areas. It aims to combat loneliness and isolation by helping these budding "silver surfers" to keep in touch with family and friends online.
Age UK Leicester Shire & Rutland's Digital Champions will be holding up to four sessions a week across Leicestershire and Rutland. They will be for around 15 people each and be held in community settings such as libraries, village halls and residential homes, whilst there will also be one-to one sessions available.
Tony Donovan, Executive Director at Age UK Leicester Shire & Rutland, said: 'We are very grateful to Leicestershire and Rutland Freemasons for their generous grant which will improve the quality of life for thousands of older people.
'More than four million older people nationally have never used the internet and we need to help them to benefit from all the advantages of a digital world that most of us take for granted.'
The grant comes through the Masonic Charitable Foundation and David Hagger, Provincial Grand Master of Leicestershire and Rutland Freemasons, said: 'We are very pleased to be able to support Age UK's Digital Champions.
'As well as fighting loneliness and depression, getting older people online has great practical benefits. A household without internet access is on average £650 a year worse off."
Lincolnshire Freemasons gather for unique Cathedral service
More than 1,000 Lincolnshire Freemasons and their families and friends gathered in Lincoln Cathedral for a unique service
Wearing Masonic regalia and parading in the Cathedral for the first time, they were marking the United Grand Lodge of England's Tercentenary and the formation of the first Grand Lodge. The service was conducted by the Dean of Lincoln, the Venerable Christine Wilson, and the Provincial Grand Chaplain of Lincolnshire, the Rev John Spriggs.
The Rev Spriggs said: 'What we know is that 300 years ago formed the first Grand Lodge. From that small beginning, Freemasonry has grown and spread throughout the world.
'As Freemasons we are justly proud of our Craft and all it achieves in the lives of its members and their families, and in the wider community.'
Also in attendance were the Provincial Grand Master Graham Ives, with the Lord Lieutenant Mr Toby Dennis and Lincolnshire County Council leader Martin Hill.
After the service, the PGM Graham Ives presided at a lunch a few miles away at the Epic Centre at Lincolnshire Showground.
Final leg of the Provincial Tercentenary travelling banner journeys across Cornwall
The final journey of the Provincial Tercentenary travelling banner made its way through Cornwall on Saturday 14th October, terminating with a Civic Parade through the streets of St. Mary's on the Isles of Scilly
The Provincial travelling banner has been specially designed by all eight Provinces that make up the South West region. Each of these Provinces have enjoyed being the custodian of the banner throughout its entire journey arriving at many special locations.
The final leg was supported by the Provincial Grand Masters for Cornwall, RW Bro Stephen C Pearn, and Devonshire, RW Bro Ian Kingsbury, together with a special guest, the United Grand Lodge of England's Assistant Grand Master Sir David Wootton.
Despite the arrival of the impending Storm Ophelia, the weather, whilst overcast, remained dry and warm. Proceedings started with a bumper lunch at The Mermaid Inn on St. Mary's Quay, followed by an enthusiastic Civic Parade in full Masonic regalia through the streets, which was supported by local islanders.
The parade continued its way through the streets until it reached Godolphin Lodge No. 7790 , where those who had paraded assembled in the Lodge room together with several lady guests to hear an historic oration by the Provincial Orator for Cornwall, W Bro Mike Murton.
The special events then concluded with a Festive Board held in the stunning conservatory at the Star Castle Hotel.
Tercentenary Choral Evensong in Shrewsbury Abbey
Shropshire Freemasons celebrated the United Grand Lodge of England's Tercentenary with a magnificent Choral Evensong in Shrewsbury Abbey on Sunday 1st October
With over 300 people in attendance, the banners of the Province were paraded into the Abbey and the brethren were invited to wear full regalia for the service. The event was held in the presence of Provincial Grand Master RW Bro Peter Taylor, his Deputy Roger Pemberton and many distinguished guests.
A procession of banners from the province lodges began proceedings with a pageant of colour and ceremony, with the Provincial Sword, Banner and Standard holding pride of place before the High Altar.
The sermon was preached by the Grand Chaplain Revd Canon Michael Wilson, and the service conducted by the Provincial Grand Chaplain Revd Phil Niblock.
The Abbey's great organ was also played by W Bro Jeremy Lund and as proceedings ended, it was agreed by all those in attendance that the Evensong was a memorable way to mark 300 years of Freemasonry.
Penarth Masonic Hall celebrates 90th Anniversary
On Saturday 14th October, Penarth Masonic Hall celebrated its 90th Anniversary with a special dinner to commemorate their forefathers foresight, exactly 90 years to the day
14th October 1927 was the date that the Foundation Stone was laid for the building of Penarth Masonic Hall by RW Bro Col Sir Charles L.D Venables Llewelyn, Bart., in a public ceremony attended by hundreds of people.
The Foundation Stone can be seen inside the Penarth Masonic Temple in the North East corner. As well as Sir Charles' association with the Hall through the Foundation Stone and the remarkable picture of that event, he also donated a chair which bears his name.
Sir Charles Venables Llewelyn was the Provincial Grand Master of South Wales Eastern Division from 1913 to 1938. Penarth Masonic Hall was one of two that he laid that Foundation Stone for during his tenure, the other being Maesteg in 1924.
He was also responsible for consecrating 30 Lodges throughout South Wales, although he was unable to be present at many due to his War Service. He was able to preside however, at Rhondda Lodge in Pontypridd, and Vale of Glamorgan Lodge in Barry, both in 1919.
Windsor Lodge was founded in 1878 and sought new premises, as its then home in Station Approach, Penarth - now Penarth British Legion - struggled to seat 250 members. Penarth Masonic Hall was built on playing fields at Stanwell Road, once used by Penarth Athletic Club. This was to accommodate the growth in Freemasonry due to the expansion of Cardiff & Penarth Docks.
The first sod was cut in 1927 by 87 year old Frederick George (Daddy) Hodges. The Grand Temple, which was open to the public recently as part of Cadw's Open Heritage Events, has a magnificent domed ceiling decorated with stars and planets representing the Northern Heavens in September. It was designed Dan Jones, FRAS, and built by Tucker Bros, Broadway, Roath, Cardiff at a final cost of £10,500. The Hall was opened to coincide with the 50th Anniversary Jubilee of Windsor Lodge.
During a fine meal, pictures of the Founding Forefathers and of the historic laying of the Foundation Stone were projected on a large screen, as well as pictures of all the Honours Boards. Paul Haley, Provincial Communications Officer for South Wales, then explained how the evening had enabled past, present and future Freemasons to dine together and look ahead in making the Hall fit for another 90 years, as well as giving a brief history of the Hall. Chris Pratt of Windsor Lodge then gave a Toast to Penarth Masonic Hall, before a further toast was taken from special commemorative shot glasses that were manufactured for the occasion.
All proceeds from the evening will go to making the building fit for another 90 years and, of course, to prepare for its Centenary.


text: Applying Generalizability Theory to Estimate Habitual Activity LevelsWICKEL, ERIC E.1; WELK, GREGORY J.2Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise: August 2010 - Volume 42 - Issue 8 - pp 1528-1534 doi: 10.1249/MSS.0b013e3181d107c4 Basic Sciences Abstract Author Information Purpose: Relative and absolute decisions in physical activity research are commonly based on a single assessment period that may not represent habitual activity behavior. This study used the generalizability theory to 1) quantify multiple sources of measurement error and 2) estimate the number of days and seasons needed to characterize long-term levels of activity. Methods: Between 2005 and 2006, youth participating in an intervention program were asked to wear a pedometer across seven consecutive days during three separate months (September, January, and May). Total variance in activity was partitioned and quantified according to differences among participants, inconsistency across days, relative differences among seasons, and the interactions among variables. Two coefficients (generalizability and phi) were calculated from multiple decision studies using a random and mixed design to determine the study protocol needed to achieve a reliability of 0.80 for relative and absolute decisions, respectively. Data were analyzed in 2009. Results: Complete data were available for 42 boys and 38 girls. Residual variance accounted for the largest source of measurement error (55.64%), whereas smaller amounts were attributed to the participant (18.74%), season (6.59%), and day (2.67%) terms. Using a random design, both coefficients failed to reach an acceptable level of reliability using a single season. In contrast, using a mixed design, an acceptable level of reliability could be reached using 7-8 d from a single, fixed season. Conclusions: This study demonstrates the potential for using the generalizability theory to make decisions regarding the rank order of activity among individuals (relative decision) and compliance rates for physical activity recommendations (absolute decision). 1University of Tulsa, Tulsa, OK; and 2Iowa State University, Ames, IA Address for correspondence: Eric E.

This app is designed to save you money! Users are taken step by step through each aspect of pool barriers and safety requirements. The app has hundreds of coloured diagrams that are easy to understand. The app also clearly explains complex subjects such as door and window requirements, what structures are permitted in pool enclosures and outlines anomalies that exist in pool legislation. This app has everything. It is a must buy for pool owners. Features include: - Easy to use interface. - Hundreds of easy to use diagrams. - Combines 18 complex legal documents into one easy to use app. - Includes outdoor pools, indoor pools, spas and public pools. - Handy tips are provided on how to maintain pool barriers. - All requirements are installation date specific. - The app will be updated as changes occur in legislation. - This app is an excellent reference and training tool for pool inspectors.

Frequently Asked Questions
- "Can I reserve a pitch?" Sorry, we now only take bookings online with full payment, but you can add campers to your party later if you wish.
- "Do you take Motorhomes?" Yes e have a hard standing for one small motor home on Camper Glade but please don't try other pitches as they can sink in.
- "Do you take caravans?" Our site is not ideal for touring caravans and as a rule we will say "No" but if you have a small caravan and are an experienced driver talk to us.
- "Do you take dogs?" Yes if they are under control and do not bother other campers or local farm animals a maximum of 2 dogs per party are allowed. Dogs are allowed to camp free.
- "Do you take children?" Yes our site is a great natural playground but not without its risks so please supervise your children when playing. Please ask your children to respect the 100 year old archaeology and only enter on escorted tours. Sadly due to a minority damaging the trenches and taking reconstruction trench timbers to burn they are now closed and managed by the Love Wood Trust. Organised tours can be booked online but are subject to en actors availability.
- "Are there baby facilities?" No, not at the moment. If you have a baby or a very young child you will enjoy your visit more if you wait a couple of years.
- "Can we forage for wood" No. We used to allow this but sadly a very small minority took it to extremes so to be fair to everyone it has to be a very strict No.
- "Can we bring wood cutting tools?" No. No knives, axes or machetes are allowed on site. It is a criminal offence to hold these items in a public place like a campsite. If you need small wood from a portable wood burner please cut what you need at home or buy our kindling size wood.
- "What happens if we break the conditions of booking?" 99% of our campers comply with the conditions of booking but if you break them you will be asked to leave the site immediately and charged for any damage or distress caused to other campers. DH Ltd will prosecute appropriately.

So, as part of this mission creep, I've decided to rename this site. For one, I was looking for a name less, um, bureaucratic than Betting Market Analytics. And with fewer letters (so many letters in that url, especially with the blogspot.com). Picking a website name in 2013 must be akin to picking out a personalized license plate: all the good ones are taken, forcing you into immediate compromise and uncomfortable questions ("Does anybody ever actually visit a .co domain?", "Can I use a 3 for an E?","What if I add a silent K?", etc.). While the pickings were slim, I was able to snag a domain name I was happy with: www.inpredictable.com.
That's not a word

All links referring to bettingmarketanalytics pages will automatically redirect to inpredictable, but it's probably a good idea to update your bookmarks.

Archaeology Meets Technology
Dr Edel Breathnach and Gary Devlin of the Discovery Programme feature in this Newstalk radio documentary which examines the ways in which technology is redefining our understanding of history and archaeology.
The documentary maker Noel Murphy began his quest at the Discovery Programme. He met Dr. Edel Breathnach and her team in what he described as a 'somewhat antiquated building' where they use cutting edge technologies to record monuments in astonishing 3D detail using laser surveying technology.
Noel then travels to Killarney in search of archaeological treasure, and meets Gary Devlin from the Discovery Programme and Dr.Nora White of the School of Celtic Studies. Mysteriously they've arranged to meet him after dark at an old church ruins to look at an ancient Ogham stone. Their nocturnal adventure results in the recording of this stone in minutest detail for all eternity and for all the world to see, creating better opportunities to decipher its linguistics.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for In-Sync Exotics, Inc., Wylie, TX, USA
After hearing about In-Sync from a friend and following their stories on Facebook, I decided it was finally time to go and check things out for myself. So on a recent trip back home to visit family, we all piled in the car and headed out to see the cats. My 2 year old son loves the zoo, and he loved In-Sync. The animals are so much closer, and it feels like you can really get to see them in their world. It was such a wonderful experience. Also, from Facebook, I constantly read about the new animals they get, and the pictures of where they come from. It is beyond words for what In-Sync does for these animals. The people of In-Sync offer these cats a new life, and they are the definition of GREAT!

* Press-shy Bramson keeps tactics the same
* F&C saga shows similarities to past boardroom battles
By Tommy Wilkes
LONDON, Jan 28 (Reuters) - Edward Bramson may wake up next week Friday to find himself at the helm of F&C Asset Management FCAM.L, one of Britain's oldest fund firms, after pulling off his trademark tilt for control by stealth.
The New York-based investor, founder of Sherborne Investors SIAGS.L, has a long record of quietly accumulating shares in weakened companies, wooing key investors and staking sudden claims for control without much of a laid-out strategy.
Critics argue the self-styled turnaround expert has failed to offer an alternative strategy to merit increased control at F&C, a company he says needs more conservative financial policies to regain an edge over better-managed peers.
But the press-shy investor, who is shunning all requests for interviews, has a habit of getting his way.
"He did it without communicating with anyone ... just one day this purchase appeared and they were there," said one person who headed a company Bramson previously took over.
Guernsey-domiciled Sherborne, F&C's largest shareholder with a 17 per cent stake, wants to remove Chairman Nick MacAndrew and has won over third-largest shareholder Aviva Investors (AV.L) for its plans. [ID:nLDE6BF247]
A war of words has escalated since then, with both predator and prey questioning the other's strategy and trying to drum up enough support before a shareholder vote on Thursday.
"I came away with no clear idea of what his strategy was. He has made absolutely nothing clear other than the fact he wants to become chairman," Alain Grisay, CEO at 140-year old fund house F&C, who has met Bramson twice, told Reuters.
Sherborne, in its defence, says it will only be in a position to set out its strategy when Bramson, described by his critics as elusive, joins the board.
The 59-year old has taken charge and sold on his stake in three UK firms since 2003 -- marketing company 4imprint (FOUR.L), chemicals group Elementis (ELM.L) and communications company Spirent (SPT.L).
Shares in these UK ventures were sent soaring in the months after the boardroom coups and remain higher since his exit. But not everything Bramson touches turns to gold.
Ampex, a U.S. electronics company Bramson took over in 1987, filed for Chapter 11 in 2007, while shares in Nautilus (NLS.N), a gym equipment manufacturer he still chairs, have dived 75 percent since Sherborne acquired a stake in July 2007.
Sherborne declined to comment.
UK-born Bramson left London for New York in the mid 1970s to pursue his corporate turnaround ambitions. He has since married a woman he met there and picked up a New York accent, a source close to Bramson said, describing him as "quiet, reserved and very bright."
A study of his past tactics reveal remarkable similarities to how he is operating now.
Bramson began buying a 14 per cent stake in Spirent Communications in mid-2006, before calling an EGM for Dec. 22 with the backing of asset manager Artemis and Credit Suisse.
Spirent fought back against claims the company was underperforming and -- like F&C -- accused Bramson and Sherborne of lacking a strategy, more interested in financial engineering and less in the long-term interests of the company.
Yet in a closely-fought vote, Sherborne triumphed.
The F&C punt reconnects Bramson and some of Spirent's key investors including Edinburgh investment manager Aberforth Partners, which owns 2.82 per cent of F&C, and Artemis, which holds 4.43 percent of F&C and 4.8 percent of Sherborne.
By March 2007, Spirent CEO Anders Gustafsson had resigned, giving Bramson effective control.
Three years earlier, Bramson played a similar hand at chromium maker Elementis, taking over as chairman in June before moving into the CEO role in August.
Ian Brindle, Sherborne's chairman, remains non-executive director at both Spirent and Elementis and is now seeking appointment to F&C. (Editing by Sinead Cruise and David Holmes)

Drinna hopped up and down on her uninjured foot, and peeled the ant off her leg. The ant's sharp feet scratched her, and Drinna nearly gagged as she watched the ant's long tongue slowly come out of her leg. She threw the ant as far away from her as she possibly could and raced for the house. She knew it was wrong, that the ants were feeling her movements and coming towards her, more so with every step.
Her ankle was already swelling from the poison the ant had injected. She tripped and fell in the sweet grass.
More of that eye-and-nose-burning stench attacked her face. An ant came crawling onto her arm, another on her back. She could feel their legs, their tiny feet digging into her skin. The one on her arm opened its mandibles and its pink proboscis stuck out towards her. She snatched the ant off and rolled over the one on her back, swatting it until it fell off, taking some of her leaf shirt with it.

Android Wear is a version of Android that is designed for wearable devices such as smart watches. This section includes instructions on how to install and configure tools required for Wear development, a step-by-step walkthrough for creating your first Wear device, and a list of samples that you can refer to for creating your own Wear apps.
Introduction to Android Wear
About the Android Wear ecosystem.
Installation and Setup
Xamarin.Android 4.2 and later has support for Android Wear. Read this guide for details on how to download and install the latest Xamarin.Android SDK and tools required for Android Wear development. This guide also explains how to configure a Wear emulator or device for testing.
Getting Started
How to create your first Android Wear app and run it on a Wear emulator or device.
Explains Android Wear-specific controls and provides links to samples that demonstrate how to use these controls.
Creating a Watch Face
A step-by-step walkthrough for implementing a custom watch face service for Android Wear. Instructions are provided for building a stripped down digital watch face service, and then more code is added to create an analog-style watch face with extra features.
Working with Android Wear
Explains how to preview and optimize your user interface for available screen sizes, and describes the steps for manually packaging Wear apps for distribution in the Google Play Store.
You can find a number of samples using Android Wear (or go directly to github).
|A simple example of the basics of wearable projects, including GridViewPager and interactive notifications.
|A simple demo of the WatchViewStub control that detects screen shape and automatically loads the correct layout. See how WatchViewStub works in the Resources/layout/main_actvity.xml layout.
|Demonstration of Wear notification pages, in the form of recipe steps. Notifications are created in RecipeService.cs.
|Fun sample of interacting with a "personal assistant" called Eliza, using Wear interactive notifications to create a conversation using canned responses.
|GridViewPager implements the 2D navigation pattern, where the user swipes vertically and then horizontally to navigate through options and content.
|WatchFace is a custom watch face with analog-style hour, minute, and second hands. This sample demonstrates how to create a watch face service that draws the current time and handles ambient mode and visibility change events. It includes a broadcast receiver that listens for time zone changes and automatically updates the time accordingly.
Check out these video links that discuss Xamarin.Android with Wear support.
|Android L and So Much More
The Android L Developer Preview introduced a plethora of new APIs for developers to take advantage of, including Material Design, notifications, and new animations, to name a few.
|C# is in my Ears and in my Eyes: Google Glass and Android Wear
Wearable computing might seem like something from the future (or an Inspector Gadget episode), but many people are already embracing the future today! C# developers know this and already have the tools and skills to harness the power of wearable devices (from Evolve 2014).
|What's new in Xamarin.Android
Android L, Android Wear, Android TV, Android Auto, Material Design, and ART; what does this mean to you as a Xamarin developer? from Evolve 2014.

Discontinued App
Now with Clear Admit Essay Topic Analysis & Tips for 24 schools! Stay on top of your applications with the Clear Admit MBA Planner! Applying to business school is a time-consuming and complex process. In parallel with researching one's target schools and connecting with students and alumni, a candidate must juggle recommenders, transcripts and multiple essays for every program on his or her list. The Clear Admit MBA Planner provides organizational tools and puts a wealth of school-specific information at your fingertips, saving valuable time and keeping your applications on track. Here's what you get with the MBA Planner: Program Information When first investigating schools of interest, MBA applicants typically spend hours searching each school's website for the information they need to make meaningful comparisons between programs and iron out application requirements. The MBA Planner brings the data to you. Access student demographic information, job placement and salary statistics, application deadlines, essay questions and more - all within moments - right on your iPhone or iPod Touch. With 30 U.S. and 17 international MBA programs covered in the current release, the MBA Planner is a significant time-saver for candidates targeting a wide range of schools. Application Organizer Once you've selected your target schools, the MBA Planner keeps you on target to meet your deadlines. The app's To Do feature generates a checklist of application components for each school, visually representing what you've done and what you have left. Meanwhile, the My Schools Dashboard provides a snapshot of the bigger picture. With running countdowns to each deadline and a progress bar reflecting the completeness of each application, you'll be able to plan your time and prioritize your work at a glance. Digital Notepad Inspiration can strike at any time. The MBA Planner lets you capture your essay ideas and school-related notes when you're away from your computer. The app features a Notes field for each and every essay, meaning you can sit and brainstorm on the train, jot down ideas that come to mind while you're walking down the street, and even compose whole sentences and paragraphs that you can cut and paste into an email to get feedback from friends. A separate section for school-specific notes allows you to record things you learn from students or alumni, and questions you'd like to ask when you speak with them again, facilitating your research process and ensuring that your knowledge of the program will come through in your applications. Contact Manager The MBA Planner makes managing your application communication a breeze. Each school profile includes admissions office contact information, meaning that you can call with a quick question or visit the program's website with just a quick touch. Drawing from your iPhone or iPod Touch contacts, the MBA Planner lets you attach recommenders to each application, making those friendly reminder calls extra convenient. Similarly, you can associate students and alumni school-by-school, helping you keep track of who you met where. You can even include notes about what you discussed and your plans for following up. The MBA Planner Full Version includes the above features for the following schools: U.S. MBA Programs Anderson/UCLA, Booth/Chicago, Columbia, Cox/SMU, Darden/Virginia, Foster/UW, Fuqua/Duke, Georgia Tech, Goizueta/Emory, Haas/Berkeley, Harvard, Johnson/Cornell, Kelley/Indiana, Kellogg, Kenan-Flagler/UNC, Marriot/BYU, Marshall/USC, McCombs/Texas, Mendoza/Notre Dame, Olin/Wash U, Owen/Vanderbilt, Ross/Michigan, Sloan/MIT, Smith/Maryland, Stanford, Stern/NYU, Tepper/CMU, Tuck/Dartmouth, Wharton, Yale Global MBA Programs Cranfield, Desautels/McGill, ESADE, HEC, IE, IESE, IMD, ISB, INSEAD, Ivey/Western Ontario, Judge/Cambridge, LBS, Manchester, Queen's, Rotman/Toronto, Said/Oxford, Schulich/York

How's the inside of your fridge looking? Crammed so full that contents that you have to unload and rearrange items to get to the back of the fridge? Sagging door shelves filled with barely touched jars of special ingredients that are probably way past their use-by-date? Fruit and vegetable draws with sad wilted produce going slimy on the bottom?
Okay, you're possibly not going to admit to the world that your fridge is this bad but at times many fridges get out of control and so need a good make-over.
Click through here to discover a fridge make-over that will help your body.
What you store in your fridge may also be an insight into your health.
Set aside 30 minutes to complete this fridge make-over. Leave the freezer alone. You can do that another day!
What will you need?
1. Ruthless attitude
2. Esky and freezer bricks if it's hot weather
3. Magnifying glass to read the fine-print on labels
4. Clear table and kitchen workbench
5. Clean-up gear (cloth, garbage bags)
6. Thick marker pens and notepad
How to do it?
1. Place the entire contents of your fridge onto one side of the kitchen bench or table.
2. Check the use-by dates on all products. Throw all expired products away.
3. Look on opened packets and jars for a "use within ..... days of opening" message. If you don't know when you opened them and you can't tell by the date whether they've expired, throw them away. If you do know when you opened them and they've still got some life left then write your own use-by-date onto the container using a marker pen.
4. Throw any leftover meals that are more than 3 days old or are of unknown age into the garbage or compost bin.
5. Sort 'surviving' foods into product categories along the lines you'd find them at the supermarket. The goal is to group foods logically to suit the way you think and cook. The grouping below may not suit you but they're a good starting place.
a. Dairy products: yoghurt, cheeses, custard
b. Flavouring agents and spreads: jam, pesto, sauces, bottled herbs
c. Cooked meats: deli meats, leftover cooked meat, opened cans fish
d. Uncooked (raw) meat, chicken, fish
e. Pet food
6. Pull out the fruit and vegetables from the crisper draws. Dead and slimy goes into the compost bin. Slightly wilted or not quite perfect is for today's soup, meal or fruit salad. Wash out the crisper drawers and dry them well before returning edible produce back to them.
7. Clean down all shelves and wipe dry.
8. Arrange your mini-supermarket back into your fridge in the same logical way you grouped them. If you have many of the one item, then put the pack with the longest life towards the back of the shelf and line up the other packs in front of it with the opened pack at the very front.
9. Place raw and uncooked meats, fish, chicken on the lowest shelf on an extra drip tray to catch any blood or other juices that leak from wrappers. The blood and juices could contaminate other foods that you don't need to cook and in turn this could lead to food poisoning
If you have any doubt about the item's value for your health you could shoot EasyDietSwaps an email. If you know in your heart of hearts that it's not wise to have the item sitting in the fridge for your health then throw it out. Be ruthless.
To keep the fridge tidy and efficient, avoid buying more than you need. Use a fridge list to keep track of what you've got and what you need to replenish. It's much more efficient to do shopping from a list and it's easier to confidently whip up a quick meal when you know what ingredients you have at hand.
Take a make-over challenge - send in your fridge's before and after photos.
What else do you do to keep your fridge healthy and organised?

Post-traumatic stress disorder is a type of anxiety disorder. It can occur after you've seen or experienced a traumatic event involving threat or injury.
Because of the alarming numbers of U.S. personnel returning from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan with post-traumatic stress disorder, the Tug McGraw Foundation recognizes the need for addressing behavioral health care issues for men and women in uniform, their families and retirees.
What is PTSD?
Anyone who has gone through a life-threatening event can develop PTSD. These events can include:
- Combat or military exposure
- Child sexual or physical abuse
- Terrorist attacks
- Sexual or physical assault
- Serious accidents, such as a car wreck
- Natural disasters, such as a fire, tornado, hurricane, flood or earthquake
After the event, you may feel scared, confused or angry. If these feelings don't go away or they get worse, you may have PTSD. These symptoms may disrupt your life, making it hard to continue with your daily activities.
How does PTSD develop?
All people with PTSD have lived through a traumatic event that caused them to fear for their lives, see horrible things or feel helpless. Strong emotions caused by the event create changes in the brain that may result in PTSD.
Most people who go through a traumatic event have some symptoms at the beginning. Yet only some will develop PTSD. It isn't clear why some people develop PTSD and others don't. How likely you are to get PTSD depends on many things:
- How intense the trauma was or how long it lasted
- If you lost someone you were close to or were hurt
- How close you were to the event
- How strong your reaction was
- How much you felt in control of events
- How much help and support you got after the event
Many people who develop PTSD get better at some time. But about 1 out of 3 people with PTSD may continue to have some symptoms. Even if you continue to have symptoms, treatment can help you cope. Your symptoms don't have to interfere with your everyday activities, work, and relationships.
What are the symptoms of PTSD?
Symptoms of PTSD can be terrifying. They may disrupt your life and make it hard to continue with your daily activities. It may be hard just to get through the day.
PTSD symptoms usually start soon after the traumatic event, but they may not happen until months or years later. Symptoms also may come and go over many years. If the symptoms last longer than 4 weeks, cause you great distress, or interfere with your work or home life, you may have PTSD.
There are four types of PTSD symptoms:
1. Reliving the event (also called re-experiencing symptoms)
Bad memories of the traumatic event can come back at any time. You may feel the same fear and horror you did when the event took place. You may have nightmares. You even may feel like you're going through the event again. This is called a flashback. Sometimes there is a trigger -- a sound or sight that causes you to relive the event.
Triggers might include:
- Hearing a car backfire, which can bring back memories of gunfire and war for a combat Veteran.
- Seeing a car accident, which can remind a crash survivor of his or her own accident.
- Seeing a news report of a sexual assault, which may bring back memories of assault for a woman who was raped.
2. Avoiding situations that remind you of the event
You may try to avoid situations or people that trigger memories of the traumatic event. You may even avoid talking or thinking about the event.
For example:
- A person who was in an earthquake may avoid watching television shows or movies in which there are earthquakes.
- A person who was robbed at gunpoint while ordering at a hamburger drive-in may avoid fast-food restaurants.
- Some people may keep very busy or avoid seeking help. This keeps them from having to think or talk about the event.
3. Feeling numb
You may find it hard to express your feelings. This is another way to avoid memories.
- You may not have positive or loving feelings toward other people and may stay away from relationships.
- You may not be interested in activities you used to enjoy.
- You may not be able to remember parts of the traumatic event or not be able to talk about them.
4. Feeling keyed up (also called hyperarousal)
You may be jittery, or always alert and on the lookout for danger. This is known as hyperarousal. It can cause you to:
- You may suddenly become angry or irritable
- You may have a hard time sleeping
- You may have trouble concentrating
- You may fear for your safety and always feel on guard
- You may be very startled when something surprises you
What are other common problems?
People with PTSD may also have other problems. These include:
- Drinking or drug problems
- Feelings of hopelessness, shame or despair
- Employment problems
- Relationships problems including divorce and violence
- Physical symptoms
Can children have PTSD?
Children can have PTSD too. They may have the symptoms described above or other symptoms depending on how old they are. As children get older, their symptoms are more like those of adults. Here are some examples of PTSD symptoms in children:
- Young children may become upset if their parents are not close by, have trouble sleeping or suddenly have trouble with toilet training or going to the bathroom.
- Children who are in the first few years of elementary school (ages 6 to 9) may act out the trauma through play, drawings or stories. They may complain of physical problems or become more irritable or aggressive. They also may develop fears and anxiety that don't seem to be caused by the traumatic event.
What treatments are available?
When you have PTSD, dealing with the past can be hard. Instead of telling others how you feel, you may keep your feelings bottled up. But treatment can help you get better. There are good treatments available for PTSD
- Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) appears to be the most effective type of counseling for PTSD. There are different types of cognitive behavioral therapies such as cognitive therapy and exposure therapy.
- A similar kind of therapy called EMDR, or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, is also used for PTSD.
- Medications can be effective too. A type of drug known as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), which is also used for depression, is effective for PTSD.
