Last week was the worst week of my life and the best week of my life. On Wednesday evening, my Dad passed away (a blog post for another day). On Thursday, I left for Iowa to get married. Jeanne and I had been planning our wedding since the end of September, and since the date for Dad's funeral is up to Arlington National Cemetery and may be several months off, there was no reason to change our plans. We had planned for it to be a very small affair anyway – just us and 2 attendants – so we decided to go ahead and leave. Between the original plan and the date of the wedding, we did add one guest – a cousin who lives close enough to drive to the location we had chosen.
Jeanne & I, along with our dear friend Lorena, drove about 1/3 of the way the first day. We got back in the car Friday morning, arrived in Davenport at 2:15 pm, and met up with my sister-in-law who drove in from Wisconsin. We got there in plenty of time to pick up our license at the court house, check into the Bed & Breakfast we had found, and get to the church for a 4 pm rehearsal. All went smoothly that day, and we went to bed early to be well rested for the big day.
Saturday – our wedding day – was almost perfect. The day began with sleeping in (which we all needed), followed by a yummy breakfast casserole, cinnamon rolls and a trip to the mall to get our nails done. My color matched my flowers and Jeanne's color matched her blouse. It had been sprinkling as we walked into the mall, but when we left, the sun was shining – yay! After a quick bite at Panera to make sure we all made it through the afternoon, we returned to the Beiderbecke Inn to get ready. Jeanne was ready first and went downstairs to wait. My cousin Michelle arrived and kept her company while our 2 attendants helped me get into my dress. Michelle then came up to see me and give me two tokens to have with me during the ceremony – a hankie that was her mother's and a pin that was one of Dad's other sister's. The pin belonged to my godmother, and was a silver shamrock with a pearl at the center. Both gifts were very meaningful and gave me a sense of having part of Dad with me on this special day.
When I was finally ready, I came down to meet Jeanne. As I rounded the corner in the staircase, I could see her waiting at the bottom – her mouth hanging open as she saw my dress for the first time. I was so happy she liked it! We took tons of photos, inside and out, and then headed for the church, the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of the Quad Cities, a UU congregation very similar to our home church of Neshoba.
When we got there, several cars were already in the parking lot. Our minister in Memphis had emailed the minister in Iowa to suggest that he invite members of his congregation to attend, since we couldn't have our church family with us. When we went inside there were already 2 families and a couple of other people. More arrived before the start of the ceremony – we were amazed at how many people came to see 2 strangers get married. One couple, Dana and Betty, told us that they had been married over 2 years ago, and when they had their ceremony, they had also been together 19 years.
The ceremony itself was lovely. The minister said a few words of welcome, and talked about love. One phrase that stuck with me was he told us to "knock gently on each other's hearts, and open them to each other in gladness". Our friend Lorena, who we gave the title of "Best Woman", read the chalice lighting words. Lori, my sister-in-law, who was the "Matron of Honor", read a passage from Robert Fulgum. Following that was a prayer that Lorena and Lori read together.
Then came the vows – we had each written our own and not shared them at that point. I was already a bit teary because Lori & Lorena had each teared up a bit during the readings. I went first because I didn't want to cry at Jeanne's and then not be able to get through my own. Turns out I cried during mine anyway. But I got through it. Jeanne's were touching as well, so I was glad I had a hankie in my pocket!
We exchanged rings and then all of a sudden we were married! Our recessional was "Can I have this dance" by Anne Murray, so we danced for a bit in front of everyone, and then walked down the aisle. As everyone left, we stood by the door thanking them for helping us celebrate. Several of them gave us cards, and one woman actually gave us a gift. It was a small figurine of 2 people (of indiscriminate gender) embracing – we found out later, it was crafted by a famous local artisan, Isabel Bloom.
We took more photos, went to the minister's office to sign the paper work, and then went outside to take even more pictures. Our Matron of Honor, Lori, is a wedding photographer by profession, so she knew just what poses to capture and how to take advantage of the light. Most of the photos were taken on her camera, so we will get those after she has a chance to upload and edit them.
It was quite breezy on Saturday, so that presented a challenge, but Lori is experienced in dealing with challenging situations, so I have no doubt the pictures will be amazing. As we got into the car to leave the church, the rain started up again – just a sprinkle, but we were thrilled that it waited until we were finished with pictures.
We returned to the Beiderbecke to put our feet up and visit for a while. Michelle had brought Prosecco and sparkling pear juice, so she, Lori & Lorena toasted us and our marriage. We opened gifts from Michelle and Lorena, opened all the cards from the members of the church, and then got ready to go to dinner. Fortunately, the rain had stopped again!
We had a 6 pm reservation at Biaggi's, a wonderful Italian restaurant that has locations around the country, but none in Tennessee, so we hadn't heard of it before. I just found it the way I did most of the parts of this weekend – searching on the internet for "Fine Dining in Davenport". The atmosphere was warm – literally and figuratively. We were seated near a fireplace in a back room – a round table set for 5. Lorena sat next to Jeanne, Michelle was next to me, and Lori was across the table from us – perfect vantage point for the photographer!
The waiter, a nice young man named Angel, informed us that the manager wanted to provide a bottle of wine for our celebration, so we went with Prosecco again. For appetizers, we ordered calamari fritti and lobster artichoke dip, shared around the table. Then it was on to soup and salad – I had a Caesar and Lori & Lorena shared a beet salad and a bowl of lobster corn chowder. The soup was passed around also so we could all taste it. Everyone agreed that the food was all delicious. Then came the main course. Jeanne ordered a seafood pasta bowl that included shrimp, scallops, muscles, and clams in a tomato sauce. I had shrimp & crab cannelloni in a lobster cream sauce. Michelle had chicken piccata, and Lori & Lorena each ordered a ½ order of a pasta dish – the cannelloni and a black fettucini with lobster and wild mushrooms – and then shared them. We should have all gone with 1/2 orders – Michelle, Jeanne and I all had leftovers, while Lori & Lorena cleaned their plates!
Finally, it was time for dessert. Lori had brought a stunning cheesecake made at a Wisconsin bakery, Simma's. Besides being beautiful, with swirls and plum-colored dots that matched my dress, it was the most delicious wedding cake any of us had ever tasted! It was two-tiered, and we used the figurine given to us by the member of the UUCQC as a cake topper – it was the perfect size for the cake.
We had to say goodbye to Michelle after dinner, but it had been a wonderful day and we were so grateful she was able to be there to help us celebrate. Lori, who was doing triple duty as witness, photographer, and driver, got us all back to the B&B for a relatively early night. The drive home the next day was going to be long, so we retired to our respective rooms by 9 pm.
Even if our marriage is never recognized by the state we live in or by the federal government, we are so happy we made this trip. We have hopes that it be legal everywhere one day, but in the meantime, we know in our hearts that we are legally married and that we will continue to love each other … at least one more day than we have so far.

'Checkbook' Feature on Website Shows Payments to Those Vendors Doing Business with Town
Bosworth: 'The Town is an open book.'
North Hempstead, NY, Feb. 6, 2017– North Hempstead Town Supervisor Judi Bosworth and the Town Board announced today that the Town has recently added a feature from technology provider OpenGov to the Northhempstead.com website that will provide a comprehensive report of all payments made by the Town, by year and vendor. This additional feature, called OpenGov Open Checkbook™, will continue to strengthen North Hempstead's commitment to openness and transparency in government.
The Town launched its modernized website in 2015, which included its first interactive aggregate financial and budget reports powered by OpenGov. With OpenGov, the public can easily analyze, share and compare detailed town budget data in a user-friendly format. The addition of the OpenGov Open Checkbook to the town's website makes it even simpler for residents to see checkbook-level spending data, and to follow how each and every one of their tax dollars is spent by their local government. Checkbook data for the years of 2014, 2015 and 2016, up to January 6, 2017, will be available.
"Previously this kind of information was usually kept in a text-heavy document, but will now be easily available and searchable to anyone through the Town's website," said Supervisor Bosworth. "The Town of North Hempstead has an obligation to its residents to show them how their tax dollars are being spent, and now through OpenGov the Town is an open book."
"North Hempstead is a great example of how a town that is committed to open the books to the public can do so efficiently and effectively when they apply the right technologies," said OpenGov CEO and Co-Founder Zac Bookman. "OpenGov is committed to powering more effective and accountable government, and we will continue to develop software and services that deliver on that mission for towns like North Hempstead."

The War on Plus Four, Playtex bra fit makeovers
A recent post by Busts 4 Justice has inspired me to write this post. Through her blog post I discovered that I should be wearing a 32DD, not my actual bra size. You see, Playtex is using the add inches method to fit as many women into the most narrow range of sizes possible. The complete craziness of their sizing calculator was pointed out today by Busts 4 Justice.
So I took a look around the Playtex Facebook page and discovered their Bra Makeover online series. I just had to take a peek to see what they did to those poor women. I was not pleasantly surprised. So I'd like to take a few of these women and give a few examples about what is wrong with their bra fit. It's hard to give a total fit analysis with only one photo, but we can still tell there is major problems.
Here is the Playtex Bra Makeover site
I want to start with the only smaller bust woman to get fit, webisode #4. The Playtex fitters took her badly fitting bra and put her into an equally bad fitting bra. They actually told her that her bra band was too low on her back! Why would you want a high bra band? That is a sign that the band is too large. Looking at her from the front you can see that the upper sides of her breasts are spilling out of the top sides of the cup. She is obviously in the wrong cupsize. The wire should come up further under her arm to support this tissue, not allow it to spill out. This woman needs a larger cupsize and a smaller bandsize.
Webisode #2. This poor woman has also been squeezed into a cup that is too small. You can see the band lifting off the front of her ribcage!
Webisode #5. This poor woman is suffering from uniboob from cups that are too small and wires that have been lifted off her chest. Her breasts do not have any separation, leading to a very tall underwire that does nothing for her.
Webisode #7. She is suffering from the same problem as #5, but in this case you can see that the underwires are sitting on her breast tissue. How can this bra be comfortable?!?! She was taken from a 38C to a 38DD, great improvement on the cupsize, but obviously not enough! Her before photo shows that the band is riding up her back, and obvious indication that she needs a smaller back size. She'll need to go down in her band size and up in cupsize.
So that's enough on the examples. I don't want to go on a rant through all of them. Feel free to take a look at their website and point out any other obvious fit issues. You can also contact Playtex and let them know what you think. I already have.

The webisodes are so painful to watch. It's agonizing watching a women being taken from one ill-fitting bra then 'unveiled' in her new equally ill-fitting bra. You can see the gore is gaping away from the body in every single one – BRA FITTING 101 people – your band needs to be snug with the centre panel (gore) sitting flush against your body – it's not supposed to leave a handy space for rolls of quarters!!
So glad to have found you BBR – thanks for following us over at Butterfly Collection xx
How ridiculous were those makeovers? Those poor, poor women! Sure, some had a bit of improvement, but not near enough! I sent them a very nice comment 😉

El Deafo
Bell's deafness resulted from an illness when she was four years old; being preliterate ruled out writing to communicate. Eventually, she gets the Phonic Ear, a large device that helps her hear. When her teacher wears the microphone, Cece can hear what she says, anywhere in the school. This "superpower" inspires her alter ego, El Deafo, into acting braver than Cece really is.
I loved reading about a person with hearing loss, but think that my students will relate to Cece's struggles to fit in, which mirror their own experiences. On the cover is a blurb by Wonder author R. J. Palacio...it's fitting because these two books are great complements. Readers who loved Wonder will also enjoy El Deafo. I have a big crew of male graphic novel readers in my class. It will be interesting to see if they embrace this novel as they have so many others. I plan on book talking this on Monday morning.

Whether you are looking for a basic printer or a multifunction printer, searching for the best kind for your individual or business requirements can be challenging. You need to understand all the specifications of different printer brand like Samsung and compare their functions. You should also look for a reliable Samsung service centre to ensure that your printer stays in good shape.
Looking for a Samsung service centre for your printer can be tedious. But once you have discovered the right printers for sale, printing personal and office files will be easy. When selecting printers, there are a couple of factors to consider you have to keep in mind. Below are a few of them:
1. Identify the type of printer
Basic printers might be enough if you need it for personal use only. A printer that can print B&W copies, along with coloured copies, is enough for your home printing needs. But if you are looking for a printer you can use in your office, you may need multifunction printers to suit your purpose. Multifunction printers can print, copy, scan and fax documents. Just be sure to find a trusted Samsung service centre to ensure that your multifunction printer problems are resolved. See more at Gom
2. Know the functions you want
There are printers nowadays that can do printing, scanning, copy as well as fax. You can pick wireless printers on sale today if you are looking for a printer that works from another location. If the printer is not straight linked to your computer system, all you have to do is link the stated printer to the network and you can print files.
Innovation nowadays makes it easier for companies to print and run as needed. Knowledge about the latest printer technology is also important when looking for a technician. You can check out the GOM Samsung service centre for the type of services they offer and the printer problems they can handle.
3. Know the type of files you print
You can conserve a lot by utilizing laser printers if you print primarily monochrome pages. If you are after premium image printing, you can decide on coloured printers instead.
Another element to think about is the cost of multifunction printers. You will have to invest more in ink and printheads if you print colour pages most of the time. If you are after premium outcomes, then a colour laser or inkjet printers for sale are your finest alternatives.
4. List down the special features you want
There are a lot of functions that contemporary printers can carry out today when it comes to printing. Make sure to list them down. Consider duplex printing, for instance. You will no longer need to turn every page if you want two-sided printing. With multifunction printers, this can be possible.
Another function is the e-mail printing. If you are from home or in a different location away from your printer, you can still print by emailing the file to your printer. With its convenience, you can conserve your time and resources.
However, buying a printer is not your only concern. You should also look for reliable repair service centres. This will ensure that a qualified technician can resolve your printer problems in the future. You may bring your printers for repair at our Samsung service centre or you may visit https://gom.com.au/service-centre-sydney/samsung/ for more information.

In affiliate marketing, programs are run on affiliate networks. A network acts as trusted intermediary between a merchant and an affiliate. For example, networks host merchants' creative (banners, links, etc.), handle all tracking and reporting, and automatically pay out commissions to affiliates based on the rules set by the merchant. In some cases, they also make a merchant's affiliate program available to a large pool of affiliates who are members of that network.
Some merchants believe that it's in their best interest to run their affiliate programs on multiple affiliate networks. The rationale is that doing so will give them more reach and, ultimately, drive more sales.
However, for the vast majority of e-commerce merchants, running an affiliate program on multiple networks only serves to add unnecessary cost and complexity. The most effective use of time and budget is to focus on growing a program to its full potential with one network.
Which network you choose to work with depends on your overall strategy. Therefore, when choosing a network, it's important to take a variety of factors into consideration. To properly assess what network would best fit your affiliate program, be sure to first answer these six key questions:
- What types/categories of affiliates are you targeting? Some networks specialize in certain verticals, such as fashion, finance, outdoors, bloggers, etc. Research the different affiliates in the networks (or work with an agency to do it for you) to evaluate how they match up with your target affiliates.
- What are your company's specific tracking requirements? Advanced tracking capabilities, such as the ability to track new vs. returning customers, mobile transactions, integration with an existing tag management system, etc. vary among the networks. First determine what you want to track and then ensure that the network supports it.
- What does the network charge? The cost of tracking ranges widely and should be projected out to compare apples to apples. For example, software as a service (SaaS) platforms generally charge a flat rate, which may benefit a very large affiliate program. Whereas traditional affiliate networks typically charge a percentage of the commission or the sale.
- Do you want to establish an international affiliate program? Presence and capabilities outside the United States vary greatly. While most affiliate networks support international activity, very few have true international expertise. If a global program is in your company's future, the network should have an understanding of the marketing challenges and cultural intricacies that are unique to the particular country or countries you're looking to do business in. They should know the affiliate industry inside and out and have the wherewithal to help your brand resonate with that region's customer base.
- What is the network's stance on fraud? Ask the networks whether they have processes in place to monitor and prevent fraud or whether they leave it up to the merchant to do that on their own. If the network does have a system in place, evaluate how active they are with screening affiliates before they join the network and blocking found offenders from the network. If fraud management would be your responsibility, ensure that you have a management plan in place that has the necessary resources and expertise to successfully limit fraud.
- What level of service do you need from a network? Some networks offer full-service support for a price. Others have great support for no cost and others provide very little service. Therefore, it's important to determine whether your program will be managed in-house or whether you'll be outsourcing the management of your program to the network or an agency. Some merchants have turned over their entire affiliate program to a network for "management." However, it's important to be aware that this approach can result in serious conflict of interest since the network is in charge of making key decisions on the company's behalf.
Selecting the "right" network for your affiliate program will depend on a variety of factors, so it's essential to carefully evaluate each one to determine whether or not it will meet your needs. Additionally, while a network does plays a crucial role in connecting your program to affiliates, it's never enough to just depend on the network. To grow your affiliate program long-term, you also need a publisher development process in place and assess each one to ensure they are a good fit for your program.

St. Catharine College Profile: Blake Jones
SCC Track Coach is an elite runner and motivator
Since arriving at St. Catharine College as track and cross-country coach a little more than a year ago, Blake Jones has made quite an impact. He not only has built the Patriot program from scratch, but he has quickly become recognized as an elite runner throughout the region.
Jones, 29, has found time to continue his training while also building a competitive program at St. Catharine. Over the last three months, he has won three races and been among the top finishers in the first two events of Louisville's Triple Crown of Running.
In January, Jones won the Frostbite 4-Miler and followed that in February with a first place finish in the Snowman Shuffle 5-K, both races in the Polar Bear Grand Prix in Louisville.
In a busy month of March, Jones won the Emerald Miles 5-K in Newport where he ran a 15:29, breaking his own course record of 15:42. He also finished 10th in the Anthem 5-K (3rd in his age group) and 15th in the Rodes City Run (2nd in his age group) in the first two legs of the Triple Crown.
A strained calf will keep him out of the third race of the Triple Crown, the Papa John's 10-Miler, but Jones already has his sights set on the Columbus Marathon in October. That obviously requires many miles on the road as he prepares for the 26.2 mile trek. But the Patriot coach has found time for his own training while also continuing to build the St. Catharine program.
"We had two guys on the men's team when I got here," said Jones who ran for Shawnee State University and then was an assistant coach for the Bears before coming to St. Catharine. "Now we have about 25 athletes on the men's and women's teams. Nearly all of them are underclassmen so we have a good group to build around for next year."
And while Jones is building a program, he is also building confidence in the athletes he currently has on the roster. That is evidenced by the gains made in just the short time he has been at St. Catharine.
"Having him as the coach has really motivated me," said Troy Mattingly, a Patriot sophomore and graduate of DeSales High School. "He runs with me in training and he won't let me slack off."
Jones participates in nearly all of the practice runs, especially during cross-country season when he will sometimes log 12 miles or more a day between the team practice and his own training. He sees the chance to bond with his athletes during those runs.
"You really get to know your athletes during that time," Jones said. "They will talk to you more during those runs and if they need something that is a good time to find out."
That relationship, coupled with Jones' knowledge of the sport, has allowed the program to grow quickly and become competitive in many events. That success has not gone unnoticed by the administration at St. Catharine.
"Blake has done a good job in a short time," said athletic director Mike Doig. "The athletes respect him because he sets an example for them. His work ethic is great and that has obviously rubbed off on the people he has recruited."
While Jones continues to build the program, St. Catharine continues to build the athletic facility for the runners. A new track was laid out last fall and now awaits the rubberized surface and field event areas to be completed.
And upon that completion, the St. Catharine track and field program will be on solid ground in all respects.

New Delhi: CBI today raided bollywood singer Anu Malik's office in connection with the release of his new video, which went viral on social media a few days back.
Our sources in the CBI have revealed that the musician, singer, reality show judge and currently taxi driver as shown in the video, was under the scanner after incriminating evidence was found against him.
"We got a tip-off that Anu Malik was hiding 'something' in his office and we decided to investigate. We watched his latest video and it raised our suspicion as to how a successful and well known singer is driving a taxi. Could it be that under the guise of driving a taxi, he is involved in doing something that is not right and hiding something from the authorities," said a senior CBI official who did not wished to be named.
CBI officials also revealed that post the raid, Anu Malik was asked to be present at the CBI office for further questioning.
Apparently, the singer didn't oblige and started giving excuses like a seasoned politician saying that the CBI office was located on the 12th floor and the lift was not working so he couldn't come as climbing 12 floors were too much for him.
Our reporter met Anu Malik to find out if the CBI summons were indeed true.
"Yes it's true; they asked me why I didn't come to CBI office. I replied Oonchi hai building, lift teri band hai, kaise mai aau, dil razamand hai," he said while snapping his fingers and gyrating to the tune.
Meanwhile, the CBI has not officially revealed what exactly they found at the singers office but sources say that they have managed to get packets of Tata Tea Fusion that were used to make the 'garam chai ki pyali' , which in the bone chilling winter of Delhi is nothing less than gold.

We recently switched over our DEP enrollment process to use VPP to download the company portal and then using locked enrollment (guided access) to force the user to enroll their iOS devices into Intune.
We are running into a few issues, if the user is on wifi only (majority of our iPads) and for whatever reason leaves the WiFi network, they cannot reconnect to the network as there doesn't seem to be a wayto break out of the guided access mode. They are then presented with a screen that says "Guided Access is unavailable. Please contract an administrator" is there anything we can do at this stage other than connecting to a computer and wipe the device?
Another issue we are running into with some devices is they seem to be locked into guided access mode and unable to switch to Safari to download the management profile, the error they are presented with is "Could not add your device. Safari has been disabled, Please contact your administrator." I'm not sure what users are doing to get to this state, but is there any way to troubleshoot these devices other than wiping?
Hi @kkeirstead
I have experienced the same issue on a number of occasions, I have found;
You could try and capture xCode logs from a connected Mac shortly after the device starts up, hopefully there is enough time to accept any prompts before guided access kicks in.
Hi @AndrewDawson
Thanks for your reply, but all of our issues are on iPhone and iPads, I don't believe there is a way to cache the servers for iPhones and iPads is there? All of the devices are coming directly from Apple and will have the latest versions of iOS or should be.
Hi @kkeirstead
Use the Mac as a caching server for Applications, iCloud and iOS Update content on the local network.
Worth a try if you have one sitting around that can be connected to the same network.

Dynamic web sites production | SEO Indexing and Search Engines | web services | Managed Server | Mailing and web marketing services | WORLD BOOST
WEB services
We deal with internet presence, like everyone and as much.
But we do it only with bespoke projects, carried out using the latest and most effective technologies, based on what you need to communicate. Not the other way round.
we create dynamic web sites, easy to update by the user:
platforms to deliver and of course share interactive and multimedia content on the web according to the guidelines defined as second-generation Internet (web 2.0).
We are specialize in positioning search engine (SEO).
We offer:
We have either found or cosumized or designed the best product.
Our on line services are obviously accessed from a dynamic website, one that is easy to update and which is based on three key principles:
A website which can be viewed easily on both Pc and mobile devices.
And a website that is integrated with You Tube: a dedicated channel always helps with Google "visibility".
SEO Indexing and Search Engines
The Seo, serch engine optimization, (basically coming up in an engine's first few pages) is as empirical as it gets. But patient work produces results.
We create tailored pages which are manually indexed word by word…
Having a good channel on You Tube, with high quality and well indexed videos will help your will help your potential new clients to find you and fast.
Remember: You Tube and Google are connected! They index the contents together.
|You need a comprehensive platform, even better if advertised on Adwords Google's paid advertising tool: a system you need to know well so it can be fully exploited.
Managed Server
Our sites are always hosted on our servers, located in strategic geographical areas, close to users.
Having your website on a managed server ensures data security, as it is always replicated and duplicated on different machines in different locations.
Constant updates, which avoid or greatly mitigate the risk of hacking, are guaranteed.
You have probably never considered the fact that a website is attacked once a month on average…and, without you knowing, someone fights them off or fixes and eliminates any vandalism..
Mailing and web marketing services
|We support you in your mailing needs, whenever you have a message which needs to be sent to several users, such as advertising emails, events presentation, newsletters or just best wishes.
As things currently stand when you send the same message to multiple users using normal email services (such as outlook or Thunderbird)this almost automatically means that your domain is at risk of being added to the blacklist of SPAM blocking systems.
Only a few will read your message and your emails, even work ones, risk ending up in a SPAM folder, in the bin…
Our system will send your, on behalf, message to each user one by one.
Just as if you were personally writing to each recipient.
|Remember: sending multiple messages is not allowed; monitoring system would find out within a few hours.
And during the sending phase one of our Systems specialist will personally follow the whole procedure in order to solve any problems arising due to SPAM fighting policies as soon as they occur.
|A new service which can improve website browsing performance and search engine indexing.
If we run a Google or Bing search from a computer which is linked to our country's Internet we can see that search result positions for the sites we have developed are more than satisfactory.
Even if we access contents for these sites from a European country performance is good, videos play quickly and images are immediately available.
But what happens if we follow the same steps from a country in the Far East, the US or Latin America?
Contents, videos and images take a long time to reach us because they have to travel through a series of bottlenecks along the backbones.
The solution has always been to replicate the site on a number of servers spread across target countries.
The procedure (called mirroring) was, and remains, effective but costly.
So much so that this solution is now only adopted for those sites that require good positioning in China, due to the country's restrictions.
However, thanks to the arrival of "cloud" technology, we can offer a truly global presence at a reasonable cost.
We rent and take advantage of a specially designed network, spread out over thirty datacentres around the world.
Through these nodes the requests received by each site are intercepted and re-routed to the closest server, or the one that is best positioned along the backbones.
By using cache your site's static content remains on the different datacentres, while dynamic content is stored on the main server, the one that is being used now.
This allows you to continuously update just the "original" site and let each user – around the world – access the one closest to them.
Search engines interpret requests based on geolocation: i.e. they will see that your site is hosted on a server which is close to the user making the request and, in the results page, will give priority to the closest one.
As well as for page structure search engines assign points based on page loading speed and geographical closeness to where the request originated from.
WORLD BOOST: the website in every country around the world.

From her stunning Givenchy Haute Couture gown to her elegant beauty look, Emma Stone looked every part a movie star at this year's Academy Awards. The actress, who's been dominating in the beauty department all award season, donned her signature red hair in a perfectly coiffed style and complemented her locks with a bold, brick-red lip—using Nars Audacious Lipstick in Mona ($34)—and a smoky eye. No word yet on whether or not her Old Hollywood–glam look was inspired by her film La La Land, but either way, it was gorgeous.
Her makeup artist, Rachel Goodwin, prepped Stone's skin using Sisley's cult-favorite Black Rose Cream Mask ($162) and used a mix of Nars makeup products—including Skin Illuminator in Hot Sand ($30) and the brand's upcoming Sweep Sun Wash Diffusing Bronzer in Seaside—to perfect Stone's beautiful complexion. Longtime hairstylist Mara Roszak styled the Best Actress nominee's retro waves using a Dyson Supersonic Hair Dryer for a shiny finish and topped off the look with a deep side part and of course, a little bit of classic L'Oréal Paris Elnett Satin Hairspray ($15). Hollywood glamour at its finest? We think so.
Feast your eyes on Emma Stone's beautiful beauty look below.

"I had been investigating getting a website for about a year and met with several designers and did heaps of research before choosing Karen. To put myself in someone else's hands was hard for me, but Karen made the process so easy, by really listening to me and understanding what I was trying to achieve and then expressing it in the design. I think Karen has a special and rare combination of design and technical ability that enabled her to create a site for me that is not only beautiful, but highly functional and ultimately a website that is an extension and expression of me. My website is everything I had hoped for an more and I can't recommend Karen more highly."
Morna Haist
"Karen did a fabulous job designing a brand new web site for my company. She knows what style fits what company; and she understands the practical side of the site's functionality. She created a site which would maximize my hits. She showed me how to manage some things myself (eg. uploading photos to my website, uploading blog postings) and how to manage/label these things to increase hits. She is thorough and meets her deadlines, and her fees are very reasonable considering her incredible skill. I happily recommend her."
Marla Compton
"I am very pleased to have worked with Karebou for the creation of my website. Karen was very friendly and she was able to translate my reactive expectations and give my website a faithful image of my business"
Jean-Pierre Romeas
"After a long and painful period of working with three other web designers who could not understand what we needed, we finally found Karen for our new website. It all became easy and spot on! As we have very deep content, an online shop, a forum, a travel booking section and editorial content, it was a challenge to make all that work in one design. Karen provided a sharp, modern and slick interface while providing space for all features and navigation. Why is she better to work with? She's not a geek, she doesn't sell bells and whistles and she is not trying to impress the customer with ultimate toys. She creates a design that works and that people really like."
Sebastien Michel
"It has been such a pleasure to have Karen design and develop my website. Karen has listened to what I wanted from day one and given me ideas with her outstanding design skills. The attention to detail and unique design gives my website an edge over my competitors. I was always consulted throughout the whole design and development process and kept up to date on how things were coming along. The end result has been amazing! Since my website has been live, the positive feedback and sales generated has been unbelievable. I cannot congratulate Karen enough on such an awesome website."
James Hind
"The moment I saw Karen's website, I knew she was the designer for me. The clarity, colours and fun of her site were so refreshing and inspiring. I could see she was a talented artist and I knew she would help me create an object of beauty, which she has. During the project I was able to relax knowing Karen was hearing what I wanted (very important) and that she would enhance my own ideas with her talent. I was able to fill in my own pages as the building took place, and much to my relief this is a very simple and quick process, which Karen has coached me through. My site is now live and getting great feedback. I myself tend to browse through the pages frequently and I love it. I am completely happy with it. So if you are looking for a designer with refreshing artistic talent look no further."

School Council
The children at Glenmere elect the school council at the beginning of each academic year. Children from year 1 to year 6 are elected.
The school council is a very important part of life at Glenmere. The members constantly strive to develop their school and are very responsible pupils.
They meet once a week at lunchtime to talk about school related issues and they work closely with the Headteacher and teacher present at the meetings.
As well as dealing with the wellbeing of pupils, they raise money for charity. Great Ormond Street has become a favourite and members have organised a coin collection once again due to successes last year. They also look for links with national and local events.
We have a strong team representing our school, who voice the children's needs extremely well.

Who else loves the idea of face masks but sometimes neglects them because of the faff… I love skincare, but I'm so lazy. The new Clarins SOS Comfort Nourishing mask was love at first application, and I've managed to successfully incorporate it into my weekly routine ever since I got it. It's just so good on dry and stressed skin!
So, what does it do?
The mask is designed to soothe and nourish irritated dry and sensitive skins – pretty much my dream skincare solution. Clarins tends to do excellent skincare for drier skin (I adore their facials!) and this is no exception. It's definitely not one for combination skin as it's packed full of heavy ingredients. It has mango oil and kernel butter which leave the skin supple – my skin can feel very tight and dry sometimes, and this formula is just instant relief.
In terms of how I've been adding it into the skincare mix, I've been using it once or twice a week just after cleansing. My dream situation is basically to leave this on the skin for half an hour whilst I scroll through Instagram after work and leaving it to do its thing. There's not much left on my skin after applying, and my skin just looks a whole lot juicer after using it!
There are three masks in the SOS line; this delicious one for dry skin, Refreshing Hydration for dehydrated skin and Pure Rebalancing for oilier skins. It's a comprehensive mask library!

Jaegwon Kim, in his superb essay The nonreductivists troubles with mental causation (from the volume Supervenience and Mind), argues that nonreductive materialism (NRM) and emergentism (E) have the same cash value. He identifies four key theses that NRM is committed to: (1) all concrete particulars are physical (2) mental properties are not reducible to physical properties (3) all mental properties are physically realized and (4) mental properties are real properties of objects and events. Kim finds that E is committed to the same four theses: E accepts a materialist ontology (1), accepts that emergent properties are not reducible to their 'basal conditions' (2), accepts that higher-level or emergent properties need a physical base; this physical base is itself sufficient for the emergence of these properties (3) and finally, E accepts realism about the mental (4). These agreements are sufficient to show that NRM and E are, more or less, the same thing. Thus, any problems had by one are had by the other. Should NRM face an insurmountable difficulty, E will as well, and should E face its own insurmountable difficulty, then NRM also will. Continue reading
philosophy of mind
Heidegger and Searle Make for Strange Bedfellows: or, What Analytic and Continental Philosophy Combined Might Tell Us About A.I.
Mark Okrent notes an interesting phenomenon: though Heidegger effectively never explicitly interacted with anything close to what we today would recognize as the philosophy of mind or the cognitive sciences or artificial intelligence, it is nearly obligatory to reference Heidegger when one writes on the topic of artificial intelligence. This is largely due to Hubert Dreyfus's reading of Heidegger. John Searle, by contrast, has interacted extensively with the cognitive sciences, artificial intelligence and philosophy of mind. Heidegger and Searle together, however, are an unlikely pair, but I think that implicit in Heidegger is what is explicit in Searle, especially in his (in)famous Chinese Room Argument.
Anomalous Monism as Transcendental Freedom?
The Kantian doctrine of freedom turns on the idea that the acting agent is neither fully part of nature nor fully outside of nature. Nature, on this doctrine, is a totally causal system governed by strict laws of necessity. The acting agent is self-governed (according to Kant) by reason and bound by the moral law, and it would make no sense for the agent to be bound by the moral law if he wasn't free to obey the moral law. Freedom here is a condition for the possibility of duty – the agent must be free from the causal/necessitarian order of nature, in other words. Whether or not Kant's doctrine as a whole can withstand scrutiny is a matter of debate, but surely his fundamental insight is worth reflecting on: the possibility of free agency requires that the free agent not be subject to strict causal laws. Jaegwon Kim, in Psychophisical Laws, notes that Donald Davidson's theory of anomalous monism was developed out of roughly Kantian concerns – Davidson accepts a picture of the physical world that is fully and causally determined, but wants to retain a place for mental autonomy and the possibility of free agency. Continue reading
Sellars and the Origin of the Theory of Folk Psychology
In Saving Belief, Lynne Rudder-Baker takes to task one of the two central doctrines within reductionist/eliminativist (RE) philosophies of mind: the doctrine of folk-psychology as an empirical theory. This doctrine, put simply, states that what traditional philosophers take to be the very 'stuff' of the mind – propositional attitudes, for example – is a kind of empirical theory and framework used in every-day, common-sense interaction and prediction of behaviour. Paul Churchland defines it thus: Continue reading
Notes on Naturalizing the Mind
Naturalizing intentionality is easy. We could go Searle's route, and argue for a causal, but not ontological, reduction of intentionality and intentional states, as well as their emergence from brain processes. Intentionality here would be inseparable from consciousness, and would be a way of representing the world so we can act on it. Keeping with Searle, an arrangement of particles by an agent would be an example of derived intentionality, the same kind of intentionality that language has. Continue reading
Moving Some Furniture Around in Mary's Room
As far as important papers in the philosophy of mind go, Frank Jackson's Epiphenomenal Qualia and What Mary Didn't Know are pretty high up on the list of must-reads. They've spawned a mass of literature devoted to picking apart just what Mary did or didn't know made all the more intriguing because Jackson himself later distanced himself from the argument. Every possible response to the argument has been (seemingly) given, and there's ample reason to regard anyone writing on it the same as someone writing on substance dualism – interesting, no doubt, but somewhat well-worn. Continue reading
Consciousness? Sounds Phenomenal.
Consciousness is phenomenal consciousness. By this, I mean that consciousness is characterized primarily by what Searle calls its 'first person ontology'. Consciousness is fundamentally a 'what it is like' kind of thing. Flanagan notes that consciousness may have depths we can't access, features we can't grasp, and a good deal more that lies beyond our cognitive capabilities – this is all true. However, if consciousness exists, it is phenomenal, and while this surely isn't the entire story, it's certainly the most important part – I'm clearly marking myself out here as part of the tribe who see consciousness's fundamental nature as qualitative.

Due to their increasingly international repercussion a multilingual website was developed, both in Spanish and English.
Main technical specifications
The main technical specifications to mention from Piró Orfebres website are the following.
Piró Orfebres is a traditional goldsmiths family business that began in 1925, almost one century ago.They are located in El Carmen a centric and old neighborhood in Valencia, Spain. They are a reference in the goldsmith business in Valencia and in Spain. They also offer their services internationally to countries such as the Vatican and the US among others.
The project for Piró Orfebres consists of the realization of a corporate website with an online catalog for the projects made by them. Clients can order new pieces of work so the site is aimed to inspire people in the process of choosing the pieces they want to acquire. All the works that they make are unique and they are made with the same craft techniques used in 1925.
Due to the large number of works they've created over the years, the website incorporates an advanced search engine, that allows users to filter the large number of works that are shown in the online catalog and also so clients can find inspiration for the work they want to order from Piró Orfebres.
Various tasks have been included in the project: the organization and revision of information, graphic design work and web development. In addition, other tasks have been carried out such as training for the administrators of the website -Piró Orfebres- to help them insert the different types of web content in the site and also we offered advice for whatever doubts and questions they might have.
The website aims to inform about Piró Orfebres: what they are engaged in, to show to the public the most important works they have done in recent years, as well as news related to them or to the world of goldsmith.
As for the design, it's important to highlight that a totally tailor-made design and responsive web design was carried out according to the aesthetics agreed with Piró Orfebres, using the free Drupal 7 software. It was important that the design would serve the purpose of bringing together the information shown for each piece and the beauty of their works, making it clear at all times that they are traditional craftsmen.
|Multilingual website
|Website in both Spanish and English.
|Advanced search engine
|The website incorporates an advanced search engine that allows users to filter the large number of works displayed in the catalog through facets, so they can easily find inspiration for the new work they are going to buy.
|La página web de Piró Orfebres cuenta con un blog donde publican contenido relacionado con el mundo de la orfebrería y artes artesanales afines, así como noticias y novedades relacionadas con la empresa de orfebrería y sus obras.
|Custom web design
|The website design is totally personalized, so it has been entirely made under the aesthetic specifications provided by the client, without the use of any graphic template.
|Responsive web design
|An adaptive or responsive web design has been done, allowing the website to be displayed correctly on mobile devices as well as on tablets, laptops or desktops, and on large screens.
|Open source Drupal 7 software was used. Besides being an open source software, Drupal software is supported by a large community of developers. This enabled the website to grow in the future if needed.

- For other uses, see USS Lafayette.
The USS Lafayette (NCC-7033) was a Miranda-class Federation starship in the 23rd century. The ship was in the Needran system's outer region when attacked by Tyrions. The crew was saved by IKS qul HoH, a Klingon vessel, also in the area. In accordance with Starfleet policy on the Needran defense, the Lafayette was outfitted as a light cruiser, matching the qul HoH's configuration. When the heavy cruiser USS Enterprise-A arrived on the scene, the Klingons responded in kind by sending a heavier vessel, the battle cruiser Qapla. (TOS comics: "Partners?", "Partners?, The Startling Conclusion!")

Higher Education, Higher Ed, University Faculty and Staff, Graduate Employees, City Colleges, Community Colleges
"Grad employees are the backbone of the University of Chicago," said Amanda Shubert, a fourth-year doctoral student in English. "As graduate teaching and research assistants, we perform essential work and deserve a seat at the table where decisions are made that affect our lives, those of our students, and the broader community. Forming this union allows us to speak with a strong collective voice."
"At some point in their time at the University of Chicago, all undergraduates are taught by grad instructors," said Claudio Sansone, a third-year doctoral student in comparative literature and classics. "We are their teachers and mentors, and students report that graduate instructors often provide the highlight of their UChicago education. It is time for our work to be recognized officially and respected by the administration."
"As graduate student workers, we experience firsthand what works and what doesn't when it comes to fostering a positive and productive research and training environment," said Daniela Palmer, a fifth-year doctoral student in evolutionary biology. "By including our perspectives in shaping the campus community, we will promote our shared commitment to scholarship."
"The University of Chicago works, in large part, because of the labor performed by graduate employees," said IFT President Dan Montgomery. "These dedicated educators know that the best way to make change for both teaching and learning conditions is to build power and collaboration at the grass roots. We're very proud that they're part of the IFT family, which already includes thousands of higher education faculty, staff, and graduate student employees across the state."
"There's a reason why grad employees across the country are raising their voice – they want to have a real say in the decisions that affect their working lives," said AFT President Randi Weingarten. "The truth is that graduate employees take on a huge proportion of the work – teaching classes, grading papers, holding office hours – that makes institutions like the University of Chicago run. A union will help employees fight for important protections, but also help them to realize their vision for a more democratic workplace."
"We are very excited about the opportunity for the graduate student employees at the University of Chicago to form a union," said Howard Bunsis, Collective Bargaining Congress Chair of the AAUP. "This will give these dedicated and critical workers the chance to have a voice concerning their employment and protect their academic freedom in their workplace. The graduate students are simply looking for a voice in the process and a seat at the table, and they believe that a union can help give them that voice."

The free Cops 'n' Robbers slot for real money is a timeless theme which has graced a plethora of slot machines in the current era. While gamblers have been inserting sweaty coins into fruit machines, cops have been on the wild goose chase for robbers with flashing boards. As such, the glory goes to the victors (cops), and the losers go to jail (robbers). Thanks to Novomatic, this classic trope is back on this five reel and 20 pay line slot game with no download needed.
As you play Cops 'n' Robbers slot machine, either for free or for real money, the striking thing you will notice is the graphics. For instance, the grotesquely caricatured thieves are as a result of choosing to be criminals. Classic Columbus Deluxe free slot or for real money.

Philadelphia, PA
Paper or tablet (and why)?
Paper. I will always opt for the more tactile experience. But…we have moved a couple times in the past few years so I might need to rethink my approach.
What's a work of art that changed your life (and why)?
In The Mood For Love directed by Wong Kar-Wai. The music, the cinematography, the art direction, and the costumes compliment one another in a way I haven't seen in another film. The experience of watching the movie is that of being immersed in a sense of longing. The best way I can describe the film is to say it is like a visual poem.
Where do you want to visit that you've never been?
Marsha's not-so-secret super-power is creating brilliant narratives: connecting ideas and stories across disciplines and time.

At their most basic level, emotions are physical reactions triggered in the body by experiences in the moment that map to similar experiences in the past. In this way, emotions function as embodied memories. They may also represent the evolutionary and developmental connection between body and mind, or perceptual and conceptual levels of cognition.
When we talk about our physical senses, we usually describe five of them: sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. They correspond to the eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and skin of the body. These five senses represent different sensory patterns. These are the patterns that then give rise to our awareness of the world.
What if we consider memory from a similar perspective? Rather than thinking about traditional categorizations of memory, how might we describe different ways in which our bodies express what we subconsciously remember from our experiences? What are the patterns that give rise to our awareness of relationships in the world?
What we are considering here is a very basic form of memory. We tend to understand memories as being stories of the past experiences we consciously replay in our minds. However, our brain's pre/subconscious mapping of connections through our everyday experiences is also a kind of memory.
With this understanding of memory, it's possible that our habits, intuitions, and emotions represent different embodied memory patterns in much the same way that sight, smell, and touch represent different sensory patterns. In which case, just as sight is our dominant sensory pattern, emotion could be our dominant memory pattern. That is, emotion could be our primary mode for representing our awareness of relationships, which would make it an integral element of higher level cognitive functions like conception and interpretation. To the extent that the basis of memory is experience and the basis of experience is the sensory perceptions of the body, then emotion as a bodily expression of our reactions to previous experiences might be an evolutionary / transformational link between perception and conception.

What's Sean Okoli been up to?
As we near closer to a lot of important dates such as the match vs Charlotte on Saturday, the unveiling of a new stadium design for FC Cincinnati on Monday, and the 4th round U.S. Open Cup match vs. Columbus Crew SC on Wednesday, a random thought popped up in my brain: How's Sean Okoli doing?
It feels just like yesterday when he scored a magnificent first ever home goal for FC Cincinnati, giving fans plenty of memories and reasons to come back.
In his one season in Cincinnati, Okoli made 29 appearances for the squad, racking up 16 goals and winning the USL League MVP in 2016. While it was heartbreaking to see him move on to New York City FC, he definitely earned the right to play in the top tier of United States soccer.
So what has Okoli been up to for NYCFC?
Unfortunately not much up to this point, but that seems to be changing. During the beginning of the season, Okoli was lucky to be subbed into the game, playing 10 minutes at most per game. However, he has recently earned starts against Columbus Crew SC and Real Salt Lake, and scored his first career MLS goal in a 2-1 Loss on May 17th.
Even though this might not seem like a lot, sometimes all a good goal scorer like Sean needs is for one to find the back of the net before he catches fire. Hopefully this upward trend continues for Okoli as FCC supporters wish him nothing but the best.

Arlene Kay
When Perri's BFF Babette hosts a meeting of Fairfax County's affluent animal lovers to save a local horse rescue farm, the agenda gets sidetracked by the discovery of a corpse in the master bedroom. Everyone present is a suspect, including Perri's main squeeze, Wing Pruett—Washington, DC's sexiest reporter.
While Perri scours local horse and dog shows hoping to unmask the killer, she uncovers bad manners, infidelity, and low-level crime in her hunt for the killer—but what she can't find are grounds for murder. When the killer strikes again and she gets a warning to stop her sleuthing, Perri has to muster all her training—and all her allies, human and animal alike—to make it out of the ring alive.
Praise for Arlene Kay's Boston Uncommons Mysteries
"Reminiscent of the comedy-mystery movies of the thirties…An entertaining first entry into the Boston Uncommons Mystery series." —New York Journal of Books on Swann Dive

Dipped Shortbread Cookies
3 dozen cookies
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened, plus more as needed
- 12 oz Ghirardelli Dark or White Melting Wafers
For Cookies:
For Dipping:
For Cookies:
- Preheat oven to 300°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together flour, salt, sugar and butter on medium-low speed until a smooth dough forms, about 5-7 minutes. This dough depends a lot on the moisture content of the butter. If your butter is particularly dry, add more butter 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough comes together.
- Chill in the refrigerator until dough is firm, about 15 minutes.
- On a floured surface, roll dough to ¼ inch thickness. Using a 2-½ inch square cookie cutter, cut out squares and place on prepared baking sheet. Bake rotating halfway through until shortbread is lightly golden, about 30-35 minutes.
For Dipping:
- Place Ghirardelli Melting Wafers in a microwave-safe container and microwave at half power or defrost setting for 30 seconds. Stir thoroughly (product keeps its original shape until stirred). If not completely melted, continue to microwave in 15 second intervals and stir until smooth. Overheating can cause wafers to burn.
- Hold each cookie on one side and dip into melted wafers. If you are dipping both sides separately, or dipping one side in dark waters and the other in white, wait until first side cools prior to holding the coated side and dipping again. Cool in refrigerator for 10-15 minutes, or until firm.
Note: You can substitute Ghirardelli Dark Melting Wafers with Ghirardelli 60% Cacao Bittersweet Chocolate Chips and Ghirardelli White Melting Wafers with Ghirardelli Classic White Chips by adding 1.5 tbsp. vegetable shortening per 12 oz Chips and following the melting directions above.
