If you're moving into a new home or if you're just tired of your old AC unit, let AirCo handle all of the air conditioning installation work. We know that you're probably concerned about picking the right unit for your home and about the installation process. We wanted to clear the air about what actually happens during air conditioning installation, so read on below and just call us if you have any questions or concerns.
When you call us, you'll get to talk with one of our friendly Fort Worth, Arlington & Flower Mound air conditioning team members. They'll promptly schedule an appointment to visit your home to do a quick inspection and consultation. This meeting is critical to the future success of your cooling system because it allows us to perform the required Manual J and Manual D calculations to determine exactly what size of AC your home needs as well as how large your ductwork needs to be.
Heat pumps, ductless mini split systems, and central AC are a few of the most popular air conditioners on the market. Our air conditioning technicians can talk with you about the possibility of switching to a different type of system if that's something that you're interested in exploring.
On the installation day, our technicians will need someone at home who is over the age of 18, preferably an adult who can answer any questions that our techs might have about the home. We know you love your pets, and we do too: that's why we ask our customers to try to keep any pets out of the work area to avoid potential injuries to them. Our air conditioning technicians will show up in the morning in a clearly marked box truck; they'll put on boot covers and place tarps on the ground to protect your home and then get to work.
Usually, a new air conditioning system can be installed in a day. But if our technicians are also installing new ductwork or if the job requires extra considerations, it could take a little longer. When you work with AirCo you can rest assured that you're getting the best possible installation that we can give.
How Does a Central Air Conditioner in Fort Worth, Arlington, Flower Mound, Keller, Watauga, North Richland Hills, Colleyville, & Southlake, TX Work?
The central air conditioner is probably the most common AC system in the country. Central air conditioners are popular because they are highly efficient, and they deliver comfortable cooling. They are also referred to as a "split" system because they utilize an indoor unit, called an evaporator, and an outdoor unit, called a condenser.
The indoor evaporator contains a series of coils appropriately called the evaporator coils. They are filled with a compressed refrigerant and they get very cold. A fan in the evaporator unit pulls in warm air from your home and blows it over the cold coils. The coils absorb the heat out of the air and the newly–cooled air continues on into your home. The refrigerant inside the coils, which is now very warm, carries the heat to the outdoor condensing unit, where it is exhausted into the outdoor air.

Air Conditioning Repair in Fort Worth, Arlington or Flower Mound
AirCo was founded in 1990, so we have over 25 years of experience providing outstanding air conditioner repair service. We've come across all different kinds of problems and we wanted to share some of the most common that we see with AC systems. We're available 24/7 for air conditioning repair service, so give us a call anytime if you're experiencing any of the problems listed below.
This is a very common problem and it is usually caused by a very simple issue: a clogged air filter. If you don't change the air filter in your cooling system it could clog and restrict the flow of air through the system. If this is not the culprit, it could be low refrigerant, a broken compressor, a bad fan motor or a variety of other sources.
Probably the most common noise that homeowners hear from their AC systems is squealing. Most often, this is caused by a bad fan motor belt.
Similar to how a cold glass collects condensation on a hot day, your air conditioning system also produces condensation which needs to be drained away. If that condensate drain gets clogged, your air conditioner might start to leak water.

CoSentry & Data Media Solutions Collaborate to Provide Clients Low-Cost System Backup & Archive
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Manny Quevedo April 21, 2012 Office: (402) 492-7892 firstname.lastname@example.com
CoSentry and Data Media Solutions Collaborate to Provide Clients
Low-Cost System Backup & Archive Advantage
Omaha, Nebraska- CoSentry, the region's leading provider of cloud computing services and Data Media Solutions (DMS), the area's most experienced storage media consultant, have announced the commercial launch of a new CoSentry Backup Cloud services for low-cost backup and archive applications. The collaboration required extensive research of existing technologies and the development of unique interfaces to design a set of solutions that meet the growing demand for large data backup resources at reasonable costs for the commercial mid-market.
"We challenged the manufacturer's and developers to draw outside the lines, to deliver a solution that would grow exponentially while acknowledging the continuous drop in storage medium pricing," commented Louie Sabarini, Sr. Solution Architect for CoSentry. He added, "The elasticity of price as well as the flexibility of architecture required us to engage in collaboration between disparate technologies providers to achieve a best of breed concept, it's very cool."
The new service is now available and clients have activated 100's of terabytes. The service allows the migration of large data sets that do not require on-demand retrieval to be digitally archived in a lower cost medium. The efficiency of the system is in the front-end software integration that allows the data to be stored and mined in the most effective manner appropriate for the service level. It allows an organization to warehouse the data securely for long intervals, but allows the retrieval of individual elements as required.
"Sounds complex, but it is actually a very simple design," related Kristy Wilke, Vice President-Client Relations for DMS. She continued, "CoSentry has always had a close relationship with their clients, so we had the advantage of designing this solution with specific end user requirements in mind, which is a significant advantage."
CoSentry indicated that DMS was selected to help them build the solution because of their long experience in the industry and their willingness to explore options from multiple vendors. "Clients expect a managed services provider to be agnostic and take the lead in best practices, finding partners willing to start with a clean slate has become unique. That's why we appreciate the DMS team," stated Manny Quevedo, CoSentry's Vice President of Development.
CoSentry indicated this is the first of several new cloud initiatives due for release in 2Q2012.

Do you worry that your teenage child has been abusing drugs? If so, are not alone. Each year thousands of children become victim to teen drug abuse and it's a nationwide problem that everyone should be concerned with. In today's world, there are so many different types of drugs out there and they are easy to get which makes the drug problem even worse. Not only are street drugs such as heroin and cocaine readily available, but so are many prescription pain pills.
When you look at teen drug abuse stats, the numbers are staggering. Prescription pain pills, the same ones we use after getting a tooth pulled or having surgery, are being abused by our children. In fact, more teens die from prescription overdose than heroin and cocaine combined. As a parent, spotting the warning signs of drug abuse can be difficult. That's why today, we are going to learn about them. We will also provide advice on what you can do if your child is showing these signs.
A Sudden Change in Personality
One of the leading signs of drug abuse in teens is a personality change. If you notice your teenage son or daughter isn't acting like themselves, it could be a sign of drug abuse. While all teens go through rough patches, there are some signs that you need to be concerned with. If your normally calm child starts acting aggressive towards you and others, it could be an indicator that something is not right. Having a lack of self-control and not being able to control their temper can be associated with drugs. Also, low productivity in school along with failing grades is another sign that might mean your child is using drugs. Many parents write off these changes in personality as growing pains but these are often the first signs of teen drug abuse.
Wild Mood Swings
Teenagers often have mood swings. This is part of growing up and because parents overlook mood swings, drug abuse goes undetected. If your child is showing signs of wild mood swings that are combined with irrational and dramatic actions, he or she may be a victim of teen drug abuse. Just like changes in personality, mood swings should send up a red flag. Your child may even become verbally abusive, become violent or even destroy property during these mood swings. Dealing with these issues can not only be difficult but heartbreaking to parents.
Depression is another sign of drug abuse in teens. The same drugs that can make you euphoric and happy can also cause depression. Many addicts are always chasing that first high which is impossible to recreate and most fall into deep depression. Although depression can be caused by drug abuse, it may already be present. Teens and even adults that are suffering from depression will often turn to drugs as a way of self-medicating. So, if you notice your teen is suffering from depression, it's time to do something about it! Even mild depression can be an issue and turn into something much worse. Drug abuse has been directly linked to teen suicide rates and your child is at a greater risk if they are abusing drugs.
Physical Changes
Not all signs of drug abuse in teens are related to emotions and personality. There can also be many physical signs of drug abuse. Sadly, these signs often come after a teenager has become completely addicted to drugs. As we all know, our eyes are the windows to our souls and if you notice your child's eyes are bloodshot along with widely dilated pupils, they may be using drugs. Another sign that is very common with teen drug abuse is sudden weight loss. While this can be a sign of an illness, it's very prevalent in those who are abusing drugs. Teens may also have the shakes and tremors when they can't find drugs or run out of money to feed their addiction. These are signs of withdrawal and can be very dangerous. A few more signs may include fatigue, frequent nose bleeds, and flushed cheeks. If you notice these signs, it is time to do something about them and get help for your child.
How to Prevent Teenage Drug Abuse
As a parent, there are things that you can do to help prevent teenage drug abuse. When your child becomes a teenager, often they will start hanging out with new people. Often teens can fall in with the wrong crowd and be tempted by peer pressure. As a parent, you should be actively involved in your child's life and get to know who your teenager is friends with. Also, by talking to your child on a regular basis, you can learn a lot. Having open communication lines can help prevent your child from getting involved with drugs. Additionally, you should encourage your child to stay busy and get involved in after school activities. This will keep them active and help prevent them from starting a potentially deadly drug habit.
If you have already noticed some of the signs above, it is time to act and seek professional help. While having a child addicted to drugs can be embarrassing and you want to try to deal with it privately, going at it alone is not recommended. By seeking professional help, you will be able to give your child the help he or she needs. Getting off drugs can be a dangerous situation and only those who have been professionally trained can help. So please seek professional help if you think your child has become addicted to drugs.
If your child is showing signs of drug addiction or abuse we want to help. Here at Vista del Mar Hospital, we specialize in teenage drug abuse and we have the compassion and knowledge needed to end addiction. We know how hard addiction can be and trying to get through it alone can make things even more difficult. If you would like more information, please don't hesitate to give us a call.

And you have also decided to go with a exotic theme and you will most likely need to hire an Interior Designer. In this case, the designer is Jane Dixon, ASID, (IDesign180), and the client has asked for an exotic and authentic Moroccan style décor. So, Jane knows exactly where to find the best and largest Moroccan showroom in California, called Badia Design, Inc, located in North Hollywood. The first experience can be overwhelming, so the discovery process needs some initial guidance, so meeting with one of the owners is the best bet to assist with her design concepts and clients needs.

Your Astrologer
I was first 'caught' by astrology in 1979 when I was 17 and still at school. I learnt to cast my own natal horoscope (or 'birthchart') and recognised myself in its symbols and their interpretations, which I found in astrology books. I also discovered a larger, more inspiring sense of who I was, and of what I could become. Instead of seeing myself as rather shy, diffident teenager, I realised that I was a unique expression of archetypal patterns common to all human beings. Doing the same for family and friends gave me an explanation for their sometimes bewildering individual behaviour and attitudes. As I explored this new-found passion further, I realised that these archetypal energies manifest themselves in every area of life, from human relationships to the rise and fall of stockmarkets and civilisations.
In 1984 I embarked on a project, the aim of which was to summarise everything I knew about natal astrology, from my reading, from personal experience, observation and from 'doing' other people's birthcharts. I started to write a database of interpretations for each combination of sign, house and planet, a project that was to take a further eight or so years to complete, and which forms the basis, updated over the years, of the Planetary Profiles available from this website. Embarking on this project was very much part of my own healing at the time, and gave me a sense of achievement that I had hitherto missed out on.
Since the early 1990s I have helped run the Aquarius Severn Astrology Society, based in my home town of Cheltenham, Gloucestershire (UK). It has hosted fortnightly talks and twice-yearly workshops by well-known and local astrologers since 1981. Since this time too I have built up an astrology practice, explaining to clients what their birthchart means and what astrological energies are currently operating in their lives.
In 1995 I successfully completed a practitioner course in Neuro-Linguistic Programming, taught by Sarah Frosell and Diana Beaver. NLP encompasses a powerful set of mental and communication techniques to utilise the full potential of the brain, which have informed my life, my work with clients and my writing ever since.
In 1997 I was asked to write an introduction to astrology for Hodder Headline, called 'Astrology, A Beginner's Guide'. My aim in writing it was to make the subject as accessible as possible, and to encourage the reader to begin a journey that can bring great insight and richness to everyday life. It is available from Amazon and other bookshops, and signed copies are available from me direct via the 'buy now' button below.
I have taught astrology to beginners for the Aquarius Severn Astrology Society since 2000, and in 2002 and 2003 lectured on the subject to passengers on mind-body-spirit cruises in the Mediterranean.
Astrology is such a large subject that there is always something new to learn. Because of my involvement with Aquarius Severn I have been to many superb talks and workshops, and whenever possible I attend conferences, workshops and lectures further afield, for example with the wonderful Company of Astrologers, run by Geoffrey Cornelius and Maggie Hyde, and the UK Astrological Association.
'Astrology, A Beginner's Guide'
My aim in writing it was to make the subject as accessible as possible, and to encourage the reader to begin a journey that can bring great insight and richness to everyday life. You will discover how to cast a birthchart either by hand, using software or via the internet, then interpret using keywords for planets in signs and houses, as well as aspects.

This is last exclusive post on the 'event of my life', the PMA incident mentioned in this post. In that post I also mentioned that the first three incidents in quick succession were followed by worsening of Pakistan India relations and that I saw the 'list' factor in all that. This post is about explaining the 'list' factor. It is difficult for me to pinpoint the time, I reached on these conclusions/delusions. Most were reached in my first psychotic phase in 2005 and I believed them as convictions in 2009.
But first of all about the list and the so called Indian spy thing. I have very faint memory that some one told me that SM Farman [Indian spy] had become AWOL (absent without leave) from PMA. I never gave any thought to that. In 2004, an officer told me that he was captured at Pak-India border. The thing that he was an Indian spy and had prepared a list of officers alarmed me. He had served in the premium training institution of the Pakistan Army for many years. He had developed some tactics to grade the officers as discussed in this post. In some posts I have casually mentioned that he [Indian spy] defected to India. I think that his whereabouts remained unknown for a while and he was later captured. The 'list' part only makes sense if he was captured. I was indirectly responsible for his capture. My 'weeping face' might have panicked him. It linked my name with the Indian spy and the list.
At first I believed that the Indian spy was an Indian or Hindu in disguise. This may be the view of many people who knew of the incident. Gradually I developed another theory that I narrated in this post. I think he was recruited by India along the way. I was told about the incident after about 8 years. I am mentioning this incident after whopping 14 years. If it was relevant after 8, it is relevant after 14 years. The officers that the so called Indian spy might have graded are now senior Majors and up in Pakistan army hierarchy. The tussle that I envisioned between the good and bad elements in army is going to heat up with time. I know nobody would acknowledge that.
For India, her valuable spy was captured. The list and information that would have been in Indian hands ended up in Pakistani hands. Some information might have been transmitted to India as well. Pakistan did not raise the issue on diplomatic level. I thought that people who got hold of the information from the Indian spy were stunned by it and decided to keep it a secret. Both countries carried out nuclear test in May 1998, one after another. The tension between the countries rose to new and dangerous level. I am against the nuclear arms on moral grounds. The nuclear ambitions of both countries have consumed tremendous resources at the expense of health and education of respective countries. The Indian subcontinent remains one of the poorest regions in the world. Pakistan has one of the lowest literacy rates among the third world countries even. The two neighbors equipped with nuclear arms are like two scorpions in a bottle, each capable of killing each other but at the risk of his own life. Despite this, Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan, the so called father of Pakistan's nuclear weapons, is worshipped like a hero.
Then came the Kargil conflict that took place between the two countries in May to July 1999. I thought that it was fought in the backdrop of PMA incident. I thought that the battle was fought over 'me'. What was the motivation of officers and men who took part in the conflict? What was the urgency on the part of Pakistan in going into this conflict? I thought that majority or all of the officers who participated might have been under close watch of the Indian spy. They though that valuable information about the real value of thousand of officers was in Indian hands. Specifically I believed this to be the case for Captain Karnal Sher Khan who was martyred in the conflict. He received Nishan-e-Haider, Pakistan's highest gallantry award on the recommendation of the Indian Army. The Indian account of events at Wikipedia is worth reading. Pakistan decided to strike first before India thrust Pakistan into war. I thought that my first name played a role of religious fervor in the conflict. The battle of 'Badar' is the first battle fought by holy prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
Then I also developed another theory about the events. This I developed as a tussle between good and bad (evil) forces/elements. I thought that the bad elements were in control in the Pakistan Army when the Indian spy was captured. They immediately realized the repercussions. The top brass in the army decided to avail the opportunity. They decided to get rid of young, good officers. They motivated them and made them fight against heavy odds. They fought selflessly with great courage and fervor. There were stories in the army that officers and men who fought in the conflict had to bear serious shortage of ammunition and food. It is rightly called Kargil debacle in some circles. In my opinion it proved to be a double-edged sword. Did officers and men fight on the assumption that valuable information was in Indian hands whereas it was in possession of Pakistan? I thought it was precisely the case.
On 12 october 1999, PM Nawaz Sharif dismissed Gen Pervez Musharraf and appointed ISI chief Lt Gen Ziauddin Butt, from Engineers Corps, in his place. Pakistani army, led by General Pervez Musharraf launched a coup and took control of the country. Later I thought it was an attempt to cover-up the Kargil debacle. I thought that the top brass of army wanted to take control of the political affairs of the country. For that, a case was build up gradually. PM Nawaz Sharif was portrayed as a civilian dictator. Had he appointed some one from fighting corps, nothing would have happened. It is pertinent to note that while Gen Pervez Musharraf was determined to take Nawaz Sharif to gallows, he showed flexibility to Ziauddin Butt. I thought it to be a double game by ISI (Inter-Services intelligence) of astonishing magnitude. PM Nawaz Sharif played into the hands of intelligence agencies, especially ISI. To my eyes, the coup was very well planned and executed.
On 13 December 2001, militants attacked the Indian Parliament. Fourteen people including five militants were killed. India blamed Pakistan based groups for the attacks. India mobilized and deployed its troops along the border. Pakistan followed suit. This was the largest buildup on the subcontinent since the 1971 war. I thought that it was an attempt by India to respond to the Kargil adventure by Pakistan. I thought that I became some sort of symbol or icon in army after PMA incident and Kargil conflict. I thought that I was purposefully kept away from border by posting me in a static unit. I thought that the Indian focus would be to kill me in some battle. I now know that they were all mostly delusions. I also visualized that the standoff united the good and bad elements in the army and I somehow became their common icon.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has said digital currencies could have an impact on global remittances, but suggested that bitcoin isn't the best application of the technology.
Gates, speaking with Backchannel before the release of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation's annual letter, spoke about a number of subjects, including the role of mobile technology in developing economies and artificial intelligence.
When asked about digital currencies like bitcoin and the technology's ability to deliver cheaper global transactions, Gates said he thinks bitcoin will not be the distributed payment system used in the future, but that it holds the potential to make a huge impact nonetheless.
Gates said:
"There's a lot that bitcoin or Ripple and variants can do to make moving money between countries easier and getting fees down pretty dramatically. But bitcoin won't be the dominant system."
Gates has offered a cautiously optimistic viewpoint on bitcoin in the past.
He told Bloomberg TV in October that while bitcoin is "exciting", he sees problems with the digital currency's existing political complications. In February, Gates suggested that his organization is interested in developing and promoting new digital transaction methods.
Barriers to adoption
Gates told Backchannel that while bitcoin and its underlying technology can make transactions easier to move – and cheaper to do so – he believes problems like the fluctuation of value and a lack of transaction reversibility within the network are significant barriers to broader adoption.
He explained:
"When you talk about a domestic economy, [you must have] the idea of attributed transactions, where if you sent it to the wrong person you can actually get the transaction reversed. [And a traditional system] doesn't have this huge fluctuation where the value of your account is going up and down by a factor of two."
"We need things that draw on the revolution of bitcoin, but bitcoin alone is not good enough," he concluded.

According to EarthEasy.com, air conditioners use up to 1/6th of electricity in the United States and peak at 43% during hot summer months. Think of the environmental impact if we as a race are able to lower those figures. The US Department of Energy reports that heating and cooling our homes through the use of furnaces and air conditioning units produces over a half billion tons of carbon dioxide. That is one massive carbon footprint. We all know that it is time for a change.
One easy, effective change to lower your effect on the environment is to use passive cooling techniques. The color of your house can certainly affect the temperature inside it. Pale, light colors reflect the sunlight and reduce heat absorption. Don't forget the benefit of trees. Planting trees around your house can effectively lower your house's internal temperature. Shade trees – such as poplar, ash, and maple trees – can grow into beneficial landscaping in just a few years' time. A quick solution is the Royal Empress Tree, which grows as much as twelve feet in a single year.
Another simple passive cooling technique is effective window shades. We are not referring to the thick, heavy drapes that your grandma used. Today's window treatments are lightweight and beautiful. While Shading Systems Inc offers black-out shades that keep all light out, they also offer privacy shades and solar shades. These options can allow you to monitor the amount of sun entering your home, while still controlling the amount of heat that comes in through the windows. This way you'll still feel the sunny days of summer, without feeling it in your electric bill. Plus, you will be lowering your carbon footprint, and that's beneficial to everyone.

A Lot Like Marriage
Thirty-four-year-old civil society representative Anthony "Tony" Septimo compares collaboration between the Commission on Audit and citizen organizations to the commitment between married couples.
I have been with many non-government organizations before. We have had some noteworthy engagement with government. But through all these, citizen groups have always taken the role of "watchdog".
Let's face it: there has always been mutual distrust between CSOs and government. Government tends to be suspicious of citizen groups, sometimes deriding us as "noisy". CSOs are perceived as always out to find something wrong with what government does. Civil society, in turn, generally believes that public officials will engage in irregularity especially if they can get away with it.
The citizen Participatory Audit program promised to be different at the onset, and this is why I was eager to join, as project officer and technical staff of the group Diaspora for Good Governance (DFGG). I wanted to know how government audits are conducted exactly. I was also upbeat about the word "participatory" - it promised something different, something inclusive.
I was part of the audit team that looked into the first pilot – the flood control project in the KAMANAVA area. The audit was conducted to find out why there was still flooding in the area despite the existence of a flood-control project. The actual audit process was very enlightening for me. I was able to engage with the stakeholders, especially the community whose lives were directly affected by the project. It was made clear that the objective of the project was not entirely to eliminate the flooding, but to minimize it by x percent. Most of all, I was able to understand more deeply how the Commission on Audit operates.
I learned, for instance, that they really have a mandate to keep quiet about their audit efforts until after the reports have been published. I also understood that there are many steps in conducting an audit precisely because we want to be fair to everybody concerned. The agency gives the auditee some time to explain or react to the findings. That the COA has opened up to citizen participation is by itself a bold action on its part.
I was also educated first hand on the many types of audit – financial, compliance and performance or value-for-money audit. Each type carries different approaches and methodologies.
Now that the first phase of the CPA is drawing to a close, I can say that this project has indeed been collaborative. It was not easy – there were many times that I found myself at odds with my COA counterparts. For instance, it was very easy to mistake their attitude for arrogance. As we completed our partnership however, it became clear to me that this was just their orientation – an institutional contextualization similar to what CSOs have as a default orientation prior to their involvement with the CPA project.
In the end, both sides have similar goals, and that is to ensure that projects are executed well and the people are aware that they have a stake in the projects that directly include them. Just like a partnership inmarriage – you have two people with different backgrounds and values, and sometimes you cannot avoid disagreements. But because of a shared commitment to the union, you persevere to find common ground and try to understand where the other is coming from.
I truly believe that good governance is never the sole responsibility of the government. The best approach to combating corruption and making good governance work is constructive engagement between government and its citizens. I am happy to be part of the CPA where I saw firsthand this dynamic at work.
The CPA has many champions and in fact has been recognized abroad for its unique approach. It was given the Bright Spots Award during the Open Government Summit held in London. I am truly hopeful that beyond being "institutionalized", citizen participatory audit will be seen in action down to the grassroots level, and will be sustained as a practice from hereon.

Nope, no sweat on that. It just gets reinvested. Not a taxable event. Weird! So if you didn't have automatic dividend reinvestment, but just got the dividends in cash, and then invested them yourself, you'd have to pay taxes on them and they would count towards the $2000 cap?Sounds like dividend reinvestment for Roth IRAs is a cool deal. You get to escape taxes on the dividends and you can add more than $2000 per year to the IRA. - Kiri

Import presentations from Slide Rocket
Sliderocket have recently merged with Clearslide meaning that they are closing all their lite accounts and many users have presentations that they can no longer update. It would be great if we could import out presentations into Slides, meaning that valuable work wouldn't be lost, and you'd have a lot of happy new customers.
Slide Rocket closed down so long ago this is no longer relevant.

Hey! nice to read this topic "Import presentations from Slide Rocket" and get much information about it.If you have more article related to this so please publish it 1z0-935 Braindumps https://www.dumpshome.com/1z0-935-exam.html.
This is the best news I have read today and I am excited by what slide rocket has achieved. I am positive that this new innovation will make the lives of presenters such as teachers, motivational speakers, and students easier. We are looking forward to more discoveries from slide rocket as they will help us to prepare power points for our custom dissertation chapter 1 help available at http://www.customwritingbay.com/9-cheap-writing-services/697-dissertation-chapter-1-aid.

This is awesome fastidious merged with Clearslide meaning that they are closing all their lite It would be great one.
Clearslide suck. We want SlideRocket back!
AdminOwen (Owner, Slides) commented
@NH: We've been busy working on other areas of the product and haven't been able to start work on this yet, though it is high on our priority list. Unfortunately importing in an editable format is unlikely to happen since we can't maintain the original formatting and style. We'll make a final call on that after we start development.
NH commented
Are there any updates on this? I am a paying SlideRocket customer looking to take my business elsewhere, would love to be able to import working presentations. Just importing the pictures from a PDF would still entail a lot of extra work getting all the medaia, links and effects back in place.
My university has exactly the same problem, and we're finding that converting Slide Rocket presentations to Powerpoint is a cumbersome process (e.g. does not download audio or video with the slide). And then, of course, we have to upload the files to our server (we use Kaltura for that).
To answer the "Admin" question, SL does export as PDF, Windows, Mac, and ppt.
AdminOwen (Owner, Slides) commented
We're definitely interested in adding more modes of import. Perhaps the best flow here is exporting from SlideRocket as PDF and importing that into Slides (not possible yet, but we are adding PDF import). What other types of export does SlideRocket offer?

Four Chinese Catholic bishops have been seized by police and are being held incommunicado, apparently so that they can be forced to participate in the ordination of a new bishop arranged by the Catholic Patriotic Association.The Vatican Insider also carries the story.
Bishops Liang Jiansen of Jiangmen, Liao Hongqing of Meizhou, and Joseph Gan Junqiu of Guangzhou—all of them recognized by the Vatican—are being held by authorities. Chinese Catholics loyal to the Holy See expect that the bishops will be brought by police to the scheduled ordination of a new bishop in Shantou on July 14.
Officials of the Patriotic Association have announced that they will proceed with episcopal ordinations, such as the one in Shantou, without Vatican approval. The Vatican has countered with a reminder that anyone who participates in an episcopal ordination without approval from the Holy See is subject to the penalty of excommunication. While noting that his penalty would not apply to those who participate under compulsion, the Vatican has urged Chinese Catholics to resist pressure, emphasizing the the illicit ordinations harm the unity of the Church.
In the Liaoning diocese, priests have surrounded Bishop Paul Pei Junmin to protect him from being seized by authorities. With police ringing the cathedral, the priests have announced that they will remain there to protect the bishop [Good for them! Let us remember them in our prayers!].

Maersk supports responsible ship recycling
Published by Flemming Mikkelsen on 23 November 2016
When we begin negotiations on the recycling of the next vessels, we will invite a number of other yards in Alang that, like Shree Ram, already follow the Hong Kong, China Convention and will commit to meeting our standards.ANNETTE STUBE, HEAD OF GROUP SUSTAINABILITY
Maersk supports a global agreement on responsible ship recycling. Since 2009, when Maersk introduced a responsible recycling policy and expressed its support for the UN's Hong Kong, China Convention, Maersk has put great effort into pushing for its universal ratification. The convention was negotiated in the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and defines a set of global minimum standards on safety and environmental issues related to ship recycling.
Maersk supports recycling yards in Alang, India, that demonstrate a willingness to change, and their efforts have already led to significant progress. As a minimum, yards that Maersk collaborates with must be certified according to the Hong Kong, China Convention. Since sending two vessels to the Shree Ram yard at Alang for the first time in May this year, Maersk has witnessed significant progress in several areas.
In the yard, 70% of the workers have received intensive safety training and instructions from the independent British assessment services provider, Lloyds Register Quality Assurance, and other organisations. The remaining 30%, who perform less dangerous tasks, have also received safety training specially targeted towards their tasks.
Other examples of the progress achieved are:
- As opposed to practices used elsewhere in the local area, the environmental recycling plan outlined by said convention means that the majority of a vessel is dismantled on a surface whereby there is no contact between ship parts and the surrounding sand or water.
- Use of appropriate personal protective equipment is available and required.
- All workers are paid the minimum wage plus 200 % in overtime payment and they have a contract—neither of which are otherwise practiced by the industry in the local area.
- For the vast majority of the shipyard's employees, housing conditions have been significantly upgraded and the yard is in the process of improving the housing conditions of the remaining employees.
Annette Stube, Head of Group Sustainability says that when Maersk decided to collaborate with ship recycling yards in India everyone was fully aware of the risk of being criticised as the yards were not yet observing the regulations fully.
"We can document the main improvements that have already been achieved and we now see that the recycling yards' engagement in the plan has led to others following suit. When we begin negotiations on the recycling of the next vessels, we will invite a number of other yards in Alang that, like Shree Ram, already follow the Hong Kong, China Convention and will commit to meeting our standards," Stube says, adding that four shipyards have announced that they are ready and have already initiated new investments in improvements impacting hundreds of workers.
Annette Stube underlines that the Group complied with standards of openly communicating to media and NGOs prior to initiating the recycling activities:
"Instead of waiting on the sideline we have taken action and the results we have achieved in six months are far more comprehensive and far-reaching than those achieved during the seven years of waiting for a global agreement."

Shortlist was not enough for an Oscar nomination. Nevertheless go see this movie, it's a real winner on so many levels!
Yehuda Samson (1981) started playing piano at the age of four. When he was 11, he began studying classical piano at the School for Young Talent at the Royal Conservatory of The Hague, the Netherlands. During his classical piano studies, he also studied jazz piano at the conservatories of Arnhem and Rotterdam, and participated in various string ensembles. He also forms a regular duo with his brother Galahad Samson, a talented violist, which has been a tremendous impetus to his work as a composer. Yehuda is convinced of the power of acoustic instruments to reinforce the synergy between visual and emotional perception. He is passionate about this process and has set himself a new mission: to use the medium of film music to visualise emotion.
Recent work
Sometimes I get questions about my production process. So I decided to explain some of my tools and techniques. Will update this post with time and when discovering new great production tools/instruments.
Sometimes in life a door opens and you get beautiful opportunities or you meet inspiring people. This week was very inspiring for me because I met Don Davis, composer and…

GUNFIRE pierced the night quiet.
Monthly Archives: May 2012
Egypt's election: Two reasons not to be cheerful
AS THE numbers came in after round one of Egypt's first more-or-less free presidential election, so did the metaphors of gloom. With no clear winner and ten of 12 contenders eliminated, the two remaining candidates were variously described by liberal reformers as a choice between disaster or calamity, poison or the noose
South Africa: The gateway to Africa?
SOUTH AFRICA has made much of its induction last year into the vaunted BRICS club, consisting of Brazil, Russia, India and China, adding an S to the acronym. But it has been a struggle to justify the country's inclusion
Kenya's athletes: A surfeit of talent
IT HAS been a tricky task for Kenya's athletics authorities to choose a three-man team for the coming Olympic marathon. Picking the women's trio was hardly easier. The 20 fastest men's times over the 26.2 miles in the past year have all been run by Kenyans, who have won the most recent city marathons in Berlin, Boston, Chicago, London and New York
Israel and its black immigrants: Keep out
ON MAY 28th it was the turn of Yorusalem Mestun, a 22-year-old Eritrean asylum-seeker in hot-pants. Five young Israelis smashed the glass door of her internet café and pulled a knife on her, while her Jewish neighbours looked on.
Syria: Houla and its consequences
EYE-WITNESS testimony leaves little doubt about what happened on May 25th in Houla, a small farming town on Syria's western plain. Two hours after the noon prayer, tank and mortar fire from nearby Syrian army positions began to rain down on Houla and an outlying hamlet called Taldou, perhaps in response to an attack by rebel forces on an army checkpoint. Just before sunset armed men, some in combat uniform and others in civilian clothes, swarmed in from neighbouring villages.
Are African governments suppressing art?
By Cosmas Butunyi The dust is finally settling on the storm that was kicked off in South Africa by a controversial painting of President Jacob Zuma with his genitals exposed. The country that boasts one of the most liberal constitutions in the world and the only one on the African continent with a constitutional provision that protects and defends the rights of gays and lesbians , had its values put up to the test after an artist ruffled feathers by a painting that questioned the moral values of the ruling African National Congress . For weeks, the storm ignited by the painting called 'The Spear', raged on, sucking in Goodman Gallery that displayed it and City Press, a weekly newspaper that had published it on its website.
Declining child mortality in Africa: an effect of rising prosperity, ehanced aid — or both?
Such are the changes in the African scene that the stunning evidence of declining child mortality in nearly all sub-Saharan countries is the source, not of disbelief or skepticism, but a serious, robust debate over what caused the decline: rising economic prosperity in Africa or improved international assistance. To step back a moment: credit for attention to the improved health of African child goes to Michael Clemens, who in early May published an assessment of a World Bank analysis that prompted him to comment on what he described as the "stunningly rapid decline" in child deaths
South Africa/Ghana: Amajita Superb in Ghana Victory
[SAFA] The South African Under-20 bounced back from their defeat to Argentina in scintillating style with a 2-0 win over Ghana in an 8-Nation International tournament game played at Cape Town Stadium on Sunday afternoon.
Kenya: Refugee Camp Hit by Grenade Attack

Two micro-satellites "Hodoyoshi-3 & 4″ developed by the University of Tokyo under the FIRST program of Cabinet Office of Japan were launched at local Yasny time June 20, 1:11 (June 20, 4:11 am Japanese Standard Time) by the Dnepr Launch Vehicle at Yasny Launch Base in Russia. This research was led by Professor Shinichi Nakasuka in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at the University's Graduate School of Engineering. The satellites are now in their initial operation phase and are capturing Earth images with wide angle, 40m, and 240m resolution cameras. These images have been downlinked (transmitted) to the ground station and are now available for viewing on Facebook and YouTube.
Hodoyoshi-3 and 4 aim to innovate the concept of satellite development, which until now has required enormous amounts of money and long periods of time. By reducing the cost per satellite to less than three million USD and development time below two years, we expect that novel space utilizations and new space users will appear, creating new industries of space development and novel applications. For example, low cost and quick development satellites will enable frequent Earth observation using a large number of satellites or the concept of the "personal satellite."
Hodoyoshi-3 has 40m and 200m GSD (ground sample distance) Cameras and Hodoyoshi-4 has a 6m GSD Camera to capture Earth remote sensing images, and both satellites have "Store & Forward" communication systems to receive various sensor data on ground by RF signal as well as "Rental Space" to accommodate user-specified objects in several 10cm cubic spaces in each satellite. These satellites both have a mass of approximately 60 kg and aim at demonstration of feasibility of practical applications of micro-satellites in space. Newly developed advanced components such as a high speed X-band transmitter and ion propulsion system will also be tested on Hodoyoshi-4. A "Heterogeneous Constellation" experiment, testing the use of two satellites with different capabilities in the same orbital plane, will also be carried out. Through these missions, we hope to demonstrate that micro-satellites can be utilized for novel and practical space applications.

Dear Parents and Guardians,
We want you to know that we are excited at the opportunity to work with your children. We all know that High School and Middle School students don't always share what is going on in their life with their parents. That's what these web pages are for. They provide information about our program and all the events that take place here. We also want to provide ways that you can reach out to your teen and build your relationship with them. We keep you in our prayers, as you are the first educators of your children, that God will help you in every effort to teach your children about the faith.
We take seriously the responsibility of having your kids in our care from week to week. Please let me know how we can serve you and your teen(s). Hopefully we will see you and your family at the 5:00 pm Youth Mass on Sunday nights! If you have any questions, thoughts or concerns, please contact me.
May God bless you and your families!
For additional information on St. Francis youth news and events, check the current schedule of events, the Youth Ministry table in the gathering space of the Church, the bulletin, or the St Francis of Assisi Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/StFrancisDerwood). If you want to be on the SFA Parent email list, please send a request to firstname.lastname@example.com.
"God of youth, We ask your blessing upon our young people. You have gifted each one of them in a special and unique way. May they come to know and share the wonder and awe that lives within them as they grow in wisdom, knowledge and understanding of You. Guide and sustain them as they discern your invitation to discipleship. Bless their openness and enthusiasm and allow their questions to both enliven and challenge us as a community of believers gathered to do your will. Strengthen and support the many good works they do. Challenge and provoke them along their journey of faith so they may help lead the church into the possibilities of tomorrow. In all these things, we ask your blessing upon them this day, in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. AMEN!"

There's perhaps nothing more adorable than a grinning flower girl toddling down the aisle, tossing rose petals and garnering giggles as she goes—so cute she'll almost steal the show. But to win over your guests, she has to be willing to walk down the aisle in the first place. If you worry your flower girl is too shy to take the first step, we've got the expert tips that will make her want to take that special walk.
Choose the Right Flower Girl
You can coach a shy child down the aisle, but there's no fix for immaturity. So, while you may love your niece, for example, it might be best to assign her a different role if she isn't responsible enough for this one. "I actually advise couples to take personality and maturity into account more so than chronological age," explains Emilie Duncan, owner of Emilie Duncan Event Planning in Columbus, Ohio. Talk to the child's parents to gauge whether she can handle it. Or, if she's old enough, "you might ask her, too," says Duncan. "She might have a strong opinion one way or another."
Let the Parents Know the Plan
Some venues simply don't allow rose petals to be tossed. Be sure to check, and if your flower girl won't be doing a traditional petal toss, let her parents know "as soon as possible so the little girl isn't practicing 'incorrectly,'" advises Duncan. In place, have your flower girl practice with a flower wand, crown, or sign. It's better for her to know what she'll be doing, rather than find out at your rehearsal that "what she'd been practicing for so many months was wrong," says Duncan. "I've seen tears when an already-nervous flower girl finds out she isn't tossing anything."
Have Her Walk Toward Someone She Loves
Allow the flower girl's parents or her favorite relative to stand where you'll exchange vows before she takes her first step. "If there is someone that the flower girl knows at the end of the aisle—someone she can walk to—that usually makes her feel more comfortable," Duncan explains. "It also helps if I, as a planner, can tell them they should just head toward Dad or Mom or Grandma or Uncle Jon."
Change Your Lineup
If you're worried your flower girl might "freeze or have a meltdown" midway down the aisle, it's best to have her precede your maid of honor, not you, suggests Duncan. "That way, if the little one is in a pool of tears in the middle of the processional, the bride isn't the one grabbing her hand or picking her up!" she explains.
Most importantly, don't stress out over whether your flower girl will be cute or cause a scene. "In the end, the reality of working with kids is that they are totally unpredictable and couples have to be willing to just let whatever happens happen—we can't control how the kids react!" Duncan says. "If a flower girl dissolves into a pool of tears at the back of the aisle, or they lay down in middle and start making a snow angel in the petals, the couple has to be willing to laugh it off and chalk it up as a story to tell when the flower girl gets married!"
