Learner Comments
Responding to Learner Feedback
Learners felt they needed additional study time to complete homework task and practise the skills they have learnt – We have introduced 'learner zones' into our centres for the academic year 2017/18. This will enable learners to book into a session, staffed by one of the tutors, where they can use the classroom facilities to study or practice their skills.
Learners requested healthier options in the centre tuck shops to take into account learners with conditions such as diabetes – All of the tuck shops will be stocking a selection of sugar free drinks and healthy alternatives to chocolate such as cereal bars.
Learners at our Hateley Heath centre have asked for the tuck shop to be more accessible to learners – A selection of snacks will be made available in the main reception office to enable learners' access to the tuck shop throughout the centre opening hours.
Learners that attended the learner focus groups in July requested more opportunities to voice their opinions on the service – More learner focus groups will take place throughout the next academic year. Some of these will be themed to ensure that our learners have good access to new initiatives and information. Additionally, we are planning a specific 'learner feedback' week of each term where additional activities will take place that will enable learners to let us know whether we are meeting their needs and how we can improve our services.
Learners requested evening classes in maths and English at Ron Davis Centre – We will be opening the Ron Davis Centre on two evenings during the next academic year to enable these classes to take place.
Learners expressed a need for better signage at our centres to distinguish them apart from the school sites – We have been working hard on our service branding and will be purchasing new signs for all of our centres in the early part of the next academic year.
Learners were struggling to park at Tipton College as the car park was full of staff from other agencies – We consulted with the other agencies on site to ensure that, in addition to normal use of the car park, seven spaces are left for Tipton College learners only.
Learners at Hateley Heath expressed concern for the safety of children on our car park at the beginning and end of the school day – We have liaised with the school to resolve this issue. Parent volunteers are now staffing the entrance to the car park at the start and end of the school day to prevent parents and carers from bringing cars onto the car park at these busy times.
Learners expressed concern about the car parking at the Ron Davis Centre with parents from the neighbouring school taking all of the spaces during drop off and pick up times – Our staff will be working closely with the school to request that parents stay out of the centre car park when dropping off and collecting their children.
Learners requested that we make better use of social media to advertise our services – As part of a new marketing strategy SAFL will be making better use of the Sandwell MBC Facebook page over the next academic year to add to their current Twitter page.
Learners have expressed concern about the performance of our classroom IT equipment – We have undertaken a consultation process with local providers and have now prepared a tender to enable us to find a company to manage our learner IT provision using a new cloud based system. The service will be making a significant investment into our IT infrastructure over the next academic year to enable us to move forwards with an appropriate solution.

Day 27
We usually don't get much snow around here. Today, we have a lot of ice with a light dusting of snow.
My grass looks so much better when (mostly) covered in white, doesn't it?
It helps me forget what a sickly brown/yellow color it has become.
The three little snowmen that the kids made (many years ago) look more at home on the front porch today than they have all winter!

Escorts Grainthorpe
This is since some males who call escorts are simply time wasters-- or likewise total low-lifes. They do things that irritate all escorts, such as asking for discount rates, asking for dangerous services, grumbling why dangerous services are not used, attempting to flirt or talk sexual, asking for extra images, scheduling then not revealing up, and so on. Which suggests every escort will come across residue males in the screening procedure.
All sorts of males will call a prostitute to ask about her services. Some guys have completely read my advertisement and site, so when they call me, they are all set to book. There are guys who hardly read my descriptions and call me with concerns about my services, rates, and so on.
Cheap Escorts Grainthorpe
A lot of guys who get in touch with escorts are low-lifes (worthless reasons of guys)-- and they can typically be identified through their telephone rules.

It was not clear at very first whether this male was a low-life or not, so I captivated his concerns. Revolting male-- do not you have any embarassment talking to a somebody in such a dehumanizing method? I understood precisely what he was going to state, as any low-life would state when their delicate ego is evaluated.
For this factor, I have a policy that potential customers should either email or telephone me. Hearing someones voice provides off numerous hints to an individuals' personality-- are they courteous?

I chuckled out loud. I simply obstructed and erased. I do not believe it's sensible that any escort cusses out worthless losers.

For an escort, a guy who's ego is so vulnerable can be possibly harmful. In in between seeing customers, ladies (escorts) would all sit together and go over how dumb and scary some males are. It's likewise rather unfortunate at the exact same time since it's frightening to understand a LOT weird, predatory-like males like this exist (guys who might, for circumstances, act in a different way behind closed doors).
When sneaks contact an escort, it is best to simply pleasantly state bye-bye and do as I do (cuss them out in head your head, have a great laugh and move on). Yes, it is exceptionally appealing to stand up for yourself and call out an indecent guy for what he is: revolting, dehumanizing, scary and pitiful. For an escort, a guy who's ego is so delicate can be possibly harmful.

Our nation's opioid epidemic is complicated and concerning. Thousands of lives are being lost needlessly due to opioid addiction and overdose. Education of prescribers and patients is desperately needed. Legislation can help to regulate opioids available on the market and how they may be used.
States must implement availability and training for the use of naloxone and opioid agonists for overdose and weaning. Healthcare professionals must learn to collaborate with pharmacists, nutritionists, and behaviorists who work with those who have chronic pain to offer more options for pain management. Schools and public officials such as law enforcement must be enabled to improve security that will dissuade drug sales.
These proposed strategies to fight our national opioid crisis are at various stages of development, and implementation and take time. The cost to implement programs, educate stakeholders, and evaluate any negative consequences to appropriate treatment plans for pain is considerable but necessary. Become and advocate for decisive government action to address this opioid epidemic.
In the meantime, small efforts can save lives. Your effort to learn more about the opioid epidemic is a beginning!

|The Sensual Greek Island of Syros
Few people are familiar with Syros, and if they are, it is in passing. Syros, capitol of the cluster of Greece's Cyclades islands, has made significant contributions to the Greek culture and economy.
Syros is on route to the more popular destinations like Mykonos and Santorini. But it has not been spoiled by droves of tourists from around the world. The tourists are mostly from Athens. Syros has retained its small island outlook, distancing itself from the big metropolis, Athens. It has not yet been spoiled by the commercialism of the more well-known islands.
He was accompanied by a Greek woman, who guided him around during his walk in the alleys of Syros. According to sources, he seemed amazed by the history of the Cycladean capital and the buildings' neoclassical architecture. Ford rode his motorbike after their tour, which was parked in the central Miaoulis square, and then headed for the Patron Saint Nikolaos' church.
Syros has been and continues to be a major ship-building hub. Many of Syros' inhabitants make a living off the shipping industry either working on the boats or sailing out to lands far and wide. Syros is also known for its loukoumia. Leivaradas and his protégé, Serres, are two of the biggest producers of this cloyingly sweet dessert.
This beautiful island has many historic buildings and was once the epicentre for justice, medicine and architecture for the Cyclades until the early 1900s. The island boasts many idyllic beaches: Galissa, Finika, Parakopi and have been immortalized by the late great Markos Vamvakaris who wrote and sang the famous rembetiko song Frangosyriani in 1932.
Syros is the birthplace of legendary Markos Vamvakaris the "patriarch of rebetiko" (O Πατριάρχης). Markos used to play the bouzouki with his fellow band mates at the Taverna O Katoga O Lili in Ano Syros. They have a painting maintained as a shrine in his memory on their wall.
Hotel Aktaion in Ermoupolis, the capital of Syros, overlooks the Aegean Sea. I spent five beautiful days admiring the sea, the fishing boats with their bounty and the myriad of cafes strewn along the shore. The hospitality of the hotel owner, Kiria Maria and her husband were second to none.
So this year, if you're planning a trip to the Greek islands, why not check out Syros and all it has to offer. You will not be disappointed.
What is your favourite Greek island and why? Will you include Syros in your itinerary this summer? Let us know below.

This is a syndicated repost courtesy of David Stockman's Contra Corner » Stockman's Corner. To view original, click here. Reposted with permission.
America will need the Almighty's unstinting favor if Donald Trump becomes our 45th President. Still, blessed be The Donald for running a demolition derby in the Republican primaries. There is no hope for the future of capitalist prosperity and a free society at home and world peace abroad unless the Republican Party is destroyed, and by golly Trump may well accomplish the deed.
Liquidity moves markets!Follow the money. Find the profits!
We need to be clear. There is no longer a Republican Party rooted in the main street highways and byways of America. What's left of it is not really even the xenophobic, nativist, crypto-racist flotsam and jetsam of the populist right that The Donald is successfully calling to political arms.
The fact is, the GOP has mutated into the Warfare State party. Nestled comfortably in the Imperial City, it operates a plethora of special interest rackets which underwrite its incumbents' bi-annual electoral campaigns out in the provinces.
In the interim, GOP politicians idle their time in the capital and on foreign junkets conjuring and embellishing scary stories about terrorist threats and hostile regimes. So doing, they perceive enemies of the American Imperium to be stalking the planet everywhere and even creeping onto these exceptional shores.
In a word, as the party of the Warfare State, the GOP's main business has become promoting the agenda, campaigns, machinations and glory of the Imperial City. Whenever its pro forma rhetoric about small government and fiscal prudence becomes inconvenient to the needs of the military/industrial/surveillance complex or the fund-raising requirements of its special interest rackets, it quickly becomes "inoperative" in the Nixonian vernacular.
There is no better prototype for the new GOP than Senators Lindsay Graham and John McCain. Their agenda consists exclusively of promoting and superintending Washington's foreign projects, occupations, alliances and maneuvers. Cycling through Tel Aviv on a regular basis, showing up on the battlements of Kiev and lecturing the Chinese about maritime law in international waters, for example, they comically imitate the first century Roman Senators they fancy themselves to actually be.
Yet after decades in Washington they and most of their Senate colleagues have accomplished nothing that resembles the old Republican verities. In fact, during 2000-2006 when Republicans controlled the Congress and the White House, not a single welfare state program or agency was eliminated or even reformed, while vast new expansions of education, Medicare, agriculture, alternative energy subsides and much more were piled on the pre-existing heap of state. Accordingly, the Federal spending share of GDP grew faster than at any time in history; and the $4 trillion worth of new national debt incurred smashed all prior peacetime records.
Even when the likes of Graham and McCain occasionally took time from their foreign adventures, it was not to lead a charge on shrinking the Welfare State or balancing the budget. McCain famously embraced the Wall Street bailouts in the fall of 2008, thereby ending once and for all GOP credibility on the sanctity of free markets and opposition to crony capitalism.
Graham was worse. He embraced the dubious science of global warming, the carbon tax and the vast expansion of the regulatory state that policy implies.
In all, the GOP establishment has become an integral part of the Washington ruling class. It has no passion——only lip service—–for the anti-Washington predicate on which the party was founded.
Once upon a time, by contrast, the GOP actually stood for free markets, fiscal rectitude, hard money and minimalist government. Calvin Coolidge did a pretty good job of it. And even the unfairly besmirched Warren G. Harding got us out of the foreign intervention business—-a path that the great Dwight D. Eisenhower pretty consistently hewed to under the far more challenging conditions of the cold war.
But these were sons of America's old school interior—–Massachusetts, Ohio and Kansas. As temporary sojourners in Washington, they remained incredulous and chary of grand state missions either at home or abroad.
Harding called it returning to "normalcy". Coolidge said Washington's business was to get out of the way. And Ike actually shrank the Warfare state by one-third, ended Truman's wars and started no new ones, resisted much of the Dulles' brother's interventionist agenda, balanced the budget and froze the New Deal as hard in place at he had the votes to achieve.
Today's Republican crowd bears no resemblance. They live in the capital, fully embrace its projects and preternsions and visit the provinces as sparingly as possible. And that's why The Donald has them so rattled, even petrified.
To be sure, there is much that is ugly, superficial and stupid about Donald Trump's campaign platform, if you can call it that, or loose cannon oratory to be more exact. More on that below, but at the heart of his appeal are two propositions which strike terror in the hearts of the Imperial City's GOP operatives.
To wit, he is loudly self-funding his own campaign and bombastically insisting that America is getting a bad deal everywhere in the world.
The first of these propositions explicitly tells the legions of K-Street lobbies to take a hike, thereby posing a mortal threat to the fund raising rackets which are the GOPs lifeblood. And while the "bad deal" abroad is superficially about NAFTA and our $500 billion trade deficit with China, it is really an attack on the American Imperium
The American people are sick and tired of the Lindsay Graham/John McCain/George Bush/neocon wars of intervention and occupation; and they resent the massive fiscal burdens of our outmoded but still far-flung alliances, forward bases and apparatus of security assistance and economic aid. They especially have no patience for the continued huge cost of our commitments to cold war relics like NATO, the stationing of troops in South Korea and the defense treaty with the incorrigible Japanese, who still blatantly rig their trade rules against American exports.
In short, The Donald is tapping a nationalist/isolationist impulse that runs deep among a weary and economically precarious main street public. He is clever enough to articulate it in the bombast of what sounds like a crude trade protectionism. Yet if Pat Buchanan were to re-write his speech, it would be more erudite and explicit about the folly of the American Imperium, but the message would be the same.
That's why the War Party is so desperate, and why its last great hope is the bantam weight Senator from Florida. In truth, Marco Rubio is an obnoxious kid who wants to be President so he can play with guns, planes, ships and bombs. He is a pure creature of the Imperial City, even if at his young age he has idled there only since 2010.
Yet down to the last nuance of his insipid neocon worldview and monotonous recitation of the American Exceptionalism catechism, he might as well have been born in Washington of GS-16 parents, not Cuban refugees, raised as a Congressional page, and apprenticed to the Speaker of the US House rather than serving as the same in the backwaters of Tallahassee.
What Marco Rubio is all about is Warfare State republicanism. When he talks about restoring American Greatness it is through the agency of Imperial Washington. He has no kinship with Harding, Coolidge or Eisenhower. None of them were intent on searching the earth for monsters to destroy, as does Rubio in every single speech.
And make no mistake. Every time this naïve smart aleck chastises Obama for weak leadership and alleged failure to get the job forcefully done in Syria, Libya, Iraq, Yemen and countless elsewheres, the ghost of John Quincy Adams should be hollering in his grave. Stalking the globe for monsters to destroy is exactly what this would be little Napoléon is all about.
Likewise, none of the Republican greats would have vowed to tear-up the hard-won nuclear and trade deal with Iran on day one in office, as Rubio never stops declaiming. His hard core opposition to that breakthrough for peace and sanity, in fact, is a damning indictment.
The War Party in Washington and Tel Aviv has spent the last 30-years constructing a tissue of lies about the Iranian regime because both need an enemy in order to mobilize their domestic constituencies. The truth is that despite its theocratic rebuke of Imperial Washington after the bloody and thieving reign of the Shah was peacefully ended, the Iranians have never aspired to nuclear weapons, do not conduct a remote fraction of the terrorism inflicted by Washington's drones, bombs and cruise missiles, and have never threatened the safety and security of the American people.
In denouncing the Iranian accord, Rubio is loudly embracing the 30-year tissue of lies about Iran and the destructive neocon foreign policy of which it is but one baleful extension.
So the good in The Donald at this juncture is that only he can stop Senator Marco Rubio. Only Trump's brash bombast can finally displace the toxic neocon ideology that has mutated the GOP into the party of the Warfare State.
Indeed, Rubio is the very worst bag carrier for the Washington neocon establishment yet. Even George Bush could not be persuaded to bomb Tehran owing the thinness of the evidence and the awful implications of launching an outright genocide against an innocent Persian nation of 80 million.
Yet the strutting know-it-all boy Senator from Florida, who never even learned his way around the Senate but oozes with Napoleonic pretensions and delusions of grandeur, could readily do far worse.
That brings us to the bad of The Donald and what I called the Hairy Deal a few weeks back. Even as The Donald talks up a populist-sounding storm and rebukes Imperial Washington with the insolence it richly deserves, his predicate is fundamentally wrong. He insists that the nation's ills stem from incompetent politicians making bad deals.
But that's not right. The problem is bad policies and destructive ideas in the hands of Washington's career politicians who are extremely competent at orchestrating the machinery of the state against the liberty and prosperity of its citizens.
Thus, in the hierarchy of things screaming out for radical change, the Donald's favorite whipping boys——-NAFTA, China's trade practices, illegal aliens and the danger of Muslim refugees——-don't even rank. Nor do safeguarding the Second Amendment or building a horizontal version of Trump Towers on the Rio Grande.
The fact is, Trump has fashioned his platform by opportunistically scratching the most fearful and bigoted itches roiling the electorate. He has absolutely no semblance of a coherent program——or even an incoherent one for that matter.
Instead, his pitch is comprised of pure bombast and bile. It's based on the exceedingly dangerous proposition that what Washington needs is a smart deal maker who can make the government agencies and bureaus run better at home and foreign leaders run for cover abroad.
You could call it the Man-on-the-White Horse syndrome, and pity the horse.

We have compiled a list of the top influencers in LA below. Before you being your reading, know that this is an on-going list, we will regularly add more LA influencers to the list as we come across them.
Curious how we came up with these specific influencers? We found some influencers we have relationships with already and hit the drop down arrow to see similar influencers. We did our best to make sure each person is LA based, mostly by checking that they have Los Angeles in their bio and secondly by checking a few of their posts to make sure they are location tagging LA.
Their specific niches range, but we tried to make sure they are in fact influencers and not solely posting for themselves. For example, do they have products they are promoting, are they doing specific activities like wearing designer brands, working out, etc.

vXchnge's Response to COVID-19
By: Blair Felter on June 30, 2016
ISO 27001 is an information security international standard. The framework provides a powerful way for companies to protect their data as well as providing other benefits. "ISO 27001 is the only auditable international standard that defines the requirements to effectively manage and measure an information security management system (ISMS)."
For companies that do business overseas, having an ISO certification can provide external verification to improve trust with both new and existing customers. While it's impossible to guarantee security against a wide variety of intrusions, ISO 27001 greatly increases your odds of success.
Companies typically seek ISO 27001 because they do business overseas and in many cases are required to get the certification. According to 451 Research, this is especially true for companies that are in the software as a service/cloud market. "Likewise, bids and tenders from UK Government Departments require products and services to be accredited to IL2 or IL3, which again requires ISO 27001 certification," says Henrik Schouboe, ISO 27001 Senior Consultant..
In addition to being able to do business overseas, ISO 27001 has side benefits such as productivity and efficiency gains throughout the whole organization.
When you're looking for a competitive edge, ISO 27001 can be a unique selling point, showing that your organization understands what it takes to protect your clients' sensitive data. For example, ISO 27001 strengthens the controls that are in place for SSAE 16, SOC 2, HIPAA / HITECH, and PCI DSS.
"Nowadays, compliance with ISO 27001 can make the difference between winning and losing tenders. In fact, it is increasingly difficult to do business in international markets without ISO 27001 registration, as more and more organizations are demanding ISO 27001 registration in the supply chain. In some countries, such as Japan and India, it is even a legal requirement. That is why leading global brands such as Google, Cisco, Microsoft, and Verizon have all achieved ISO 27001 registration."
Data breaches for high profile companies like Wendy's, Home Depot, and Anthem are becoming commonplace. By having an ISO 27001 certification, it shows that your company takes cyber security seriously.
Every business has a responsibility to keep their data safe, whether it's customer data, internal employee records, or intellectual property. ISO 27001 gives you a way to protect all of your data from potential threats including natural disasters, staff negligence, fraud, and even cyber attacks.
If you think increasing security does not decrease cost, think again. Consider the cost of service interruption for your business or what will happen to your reputation if data leaks to the public. Every time this type of event is mitigated, it saves your organization money.
Using ISO 27001 can protect your organization's reputation, as well as your information assets both internally and abroad. It can also increase customer confidence by showing that you are doing everything possible to minimize the risk of data loss.
vXchnge has recently reached ISO 27001 across all of its data centers. This certification shows vXchnge's commitment to providing exceptional security to all of its customers.

My fridge is dying. We are going to baby it as long as possible but I need to figure out what is going to replace it when it goes. Looking at reviews and price, I'm finding that Bottom Freezer Refrigerators look pretty good.
We mainly use our freezer like a storage Tetris game so having it as a drawer doesn't bother me.
Does anyone have one and used one regularly and have a strong opinion about it? Any ergonomics issues?
ETA: Thank you all you wonderful people! I've picked one out. Now to watch the sales over the coming months.

Sleeve labels wrap Chicago's Burnt City Beer cans in a new look done on a tight deadline that adds a major dose of fun and irreverence.
Just about everything changed for Burnt City Beer over a five-month period: The name changed from Atlas Brewing Co., the packaging design changed from masculine and industrial to irreverent and fun with sleeve-labeled cans now delivering the package graphics.
The from-scratch-redesigned packaging debuted in May when the Chicago brewer rolled out its new sleeve-labeled 12oz cans throughout the company's markets in "most of northern Illinois, northern Indiana and Alabama," says Greg Lamacki, the brewery's chief operating officer.
The 12oz cans are supplied presleeved by Tripack for three year-round formulations and one seasonal item, according to Lamacki, who answers our questions about the extreme packaging graphics makeover that was done by Ian Law of Mighty Few.
Then named Atlas Brewing, the brewer's previous packaging design had a decidedly industrial look.
What were the major redesign goals?
Lamacki: We ran into unique circumstances [in late 2015] since we were looking for a whole rebrand within five months. Knowing that label approval by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau would be at least six weeks and initial design would be another eight weeks, I had to find a solution that had less than an 8-week turnaround. Speed was initially our biggest concern and goal.
Along with that, we had decided to take our packaging from a "Legacy Look" (shown above) to one that was a little irreverent. Knowing what we wanted and working with a designer that we had total confidence in helped us reach this goal. The only guideline we gave them was to make sure the whole brand was unified.
What "vibe" you were seeking with this new name and look?
Lamacki: We wanted to convey that Chicago was a Burnt City and rose from the ashes. We wanted to have a little fun and put characters on the can. We wanted people to look at our brand and have it clearly be a Craft Beer brand.
Burnt City's first seasonal offering in a sleeve-labeled can is this summery Retrofit Lime Radler.
What was the hardest thing to get just right on the label?
Lamacki: We wanted to be fun without being silly. Sometimes what you think is funny may come across as stupid. Getting that right is the hardest thing.
Comment on the use of sleeve labeling.
Lamacki: We believe shrink sleeves gave us the best possible look in comparison to preprinted cans. The cans come out looking mostly preprinted instead of a label applied—and we can get the cans sleeved in 4-6 weeks. The real benefit is time and the ability to order smaller quantities. At this time we plan to continue using shrink sleeves until business greatly increase, though we will continue to use shrink-sleeves for seasonal and one-off brews.
[Ed.'s Note: You can read more about Tripack's sleeving operations on the next page.]
What lessons were learned from this experience?
Lamacki: The best information I can pass along is to be flexible and open-minded with your graphic artist. Give them big picture direction and let them work it out. This assumes you use someone who has experience in package design.
What's been the feedback?
Lamacki: Everyone I know likes the new look and the brand identity better than before.
What's next?
Lamacki: We will continue to bring to market five seasonal beers this year. Beyond that we are still a little too young for any concrete plans.
What can you say about Tripack's involvement?
Lamacki: They have been a reliable and easy source to work with. Since we did all the design work they performed all of the production work and delivery with great efficiency.
Read more about Burnt City's fascinating backstory at the company's website that led to the rebranding and redesign and about the threatened lawsuit and more in this Chicago Tribune article.

Next: Sleeve packaging details from Tripack
According to Tripack's Nick Linz, Burnt City's shrink-sleeve label is made from PETG film printed on a high-definition flexographic press by Century Label. He also answers the following questions:
How was the connection made with Burnt City?
Linz: Tripack's initial communication with Burnt City began while they were doing business as Atlas Brewing. As a start-up brewery, Atlas reached out to Tripack with an initial interest in one of our shrink-sleeve labeling systems to go in-line with its canning equipment.
Atlas eventually became Burnt City and had a very short window to relaunch their new brand. This is where Tripack Craft Can Services were able to provide Burnt City with presleeved cans, at a less-than-truckload quantity, in a turn-around time that got them to market faster than their alternative of purchasing mass volume, preprinted cans from the factory.
What can you say about the sleeving operations?
Linz: Tripack's operation is based in Cincinnati, a strategic central location, servicing customers across the U.S. including the West Coast. While we've been manufacturing shrink sleeve systems since 2003, we've been providing specialized contract sleeving services for five years now across various market segments.
We've seen massive growth for the contract sleeving over the past three years with craft beer, wine and spirits. We not only provide turnkey sleeve labeled cans in 12/16/32oz sizes, but also smaller 8oz cans for craft wine, coffee, and energy drink customers. In addition to cans, we decorate a great deal of full-size wine bottles and liquor bottles (glass and plastic).
Because of demand since the start of 2016, we have been operating at double shifts, 5 days a week. As a manufacturer of shrink sleeve labeling systems, we have the unique advantage as a copacker to quickly scale, adding new production lines in only a few weeks. On deck is the installation of a new high-speed depalletizer and can repalletizer that will double our output capability.

Encouraging Young Artists in Mississippi Through the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards
Tuesday, March 3, 2020
Since 1923, the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards have recognized the vision, ingenuity, and talent of our nation's youth, and provided opportunities for creative teens to be celebrated. The Awards are presented by the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers, whose mission is to identify students with exceptional artistic and literary talent and present their remarkable work to the world through the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards. Students receive opportunities for recognition, exhibition, publication, and scholarship. Each year, increasing numbers of students participate in the program, and become a part of our community–young artists and writers, filmmakers and photographers, poets, and sculptors, along with countless educators who support and encourage the creative process.
This Mississippi Museum of Art has participated in/been the Regional Affiliate Sponsor for the Scholastic Art Awards for over 40 years. Starting in September, students in grades 7 through 12 from 65 different counties in Mississippi began creating their online Scholastic profiles and uploading their works. The students were eligible to enter works under 18 different categories ranging from fashion to film and animation to photography or painting. The submission window closed in December with almost 900 student participants having submitted over 1700 works.
Adjudication took place in January with three local art professionals. Works were judged on Scholastic's core values: originality, technical skill, and emergence of personal vision. Throughout the judging process, works get sorted into Honorable Mention, Silver Key, Gold Key, and the highest honor, American Visions Nominee. From the over-1700 entries this year, the judges selected 403 Honorable Mentions, 207 Silver Keys, 151 Gold Keys, and 5 American Visions winners.
The five American Visions nominees have their works entered into the national Scholastic competition. One overall winner will be chosen by the national committee and will be invited to represent Mississippi at a ceremony in New York.
A majority of the Silver Key- and Gold Key-winning works are currently on display in the main corridor at the Museum.

Britney Spears Receiving Laser Fat Removal Treatment?by Tyler Johnson at .
Britney Spears' newly toned body has been receiving a lot of attention lately, but on a recent trip to a shopping plaza, the 32-year-old mother of two may have inadvertently revealed her secret.
That's Brit heading back to her car holding a pamphlet for Zerona, a laser device used for non-invasive fat removal.
No word on whether or not Brit's simply doing her research before trying the product, or if she's fresh from a fat-blasting session in these photos.
Either way, Brit looks better than ever these days, and Zerona is pretty harmless as far as Hollywood weight loss secrets go.
Britney's modeling lingerie these days, so we think going the extra mile to keep everything where it should be is totally understandable.
The close-up hand photo has also revived rumors that Spears is engaged to David Lucado, but that's old news at this point.
"Engaged" is Britney's natural state. We'll believe it's legit once she actually walks down the aisle. Even then, we have to wait a few months to see if she pulls another quickie annullment before we know it's legit.
In the meantime, continue to enjoy Brit's MILFy hotness in the gallery below. Whatever she's doing to keep that body in shape, it's certainly paying off:

Maine Dwelling+Design is connected to those that reside and breathe structure, artwork, and good dwelling. There's nothing mistaken with inserting household heirlooms alongside your modern couch. All good interior decorators will let you know that crucial aspect to adorning your private home is that it reflects who you are, your persona and your style. The antique Chippendale desk that was your grandfather's tells a narrative. It tells the story of your previous. The fashionable couch you fell in love with and simply needed to purchase also tells a story, your present story, and there's no cause why the current and previous can't co-exist superbly collectively. The same will be mentioned for art. Now you won't want to place a portray by Salvador Dali on the same wall next to a Monet, but there's no cause why they can't be in the same room together. With fabrics whether or not it's furnishings, rugs or pillows, different colors and patterns can deliver warmth and texture into your dwelling house.

An AWESOME Photograph Gallery: This is among the most important tips I've for remodelers! When I say, have a photograph gallery in your website,†I'm not speaking about having the identical primary gallery used by every different reworking firm. It is advisable to differentiate your corporation from the remaining, so make your gallery AMAZING—both in terms of the image quality, volume, and the design of the gallery itself! You want large, beatiful, rich photographs (hire an expert photographer). You also must make sure that your website designer optimizes every image so that it masses shortly (optimized web site pictures lead to quicker loading websites and faster loading web sites rank greater on Google). Each picture ought to have a descriptive file title and a search engine pleasant ALT†tag.

Three Billboards Exterior Cleveland, OH: On February 26, three billboards mysteriously popped up outside of Cleveland attempting to recruit LeBron James to Philadelphia. The goal? Our co-CEO Asher Raphael needed to do something daring to encourage pleasure in employees across the nation who could brag to their loved ones, my company did that!†After igniting a national narrative, we followed up with placing three billboards featuring the names of all 2000+ Power employees. Workers were given a hyperlink that allowed them to zoom in and capture their names on the billboards, which thanked them for making Energy, Power. And as a 3rd and closing bookend to the employee appreciation stunt, we flew three billboards over NYC on the night time of the NBA Draft. King James didn't come to Philly, but Power workers obtained the message that they worked for a daring firm who wasn't afraid to make waves.

US Airways is to re-introduce its daily non-stop Shannon – Philadelphia service from 22nd May to 3rd September 2013 (eastbound dates) and flights are now on sale.

The seasonal service will complement US Airways' year-round daily service from Dublin to Philadelphia and its seasonal daily service from Dublin to Charlotte.
"As a popular destination in Europe, US Airways is thrilled to return to Shannon, Ireland, with seasonal service from our international gateway at Philadelphia International Airport," said Andrew Nocella, US Airways Senior Vice President, Marketing and Planning. "Beginning next spring, our customers will again have non-stop access to both coasts of Ireland.

asked Apr 05 '18 at 07:28 by AlexMcLeod (11)
I have a .bwproject file that won't load. The error messages is "Error extracting required files from project's attachments: invalid stored block lengths".
I didn't expect that we'd have to watch out for file corruption, so I haven't been saving incremental versions, and that's quite a lot of lost work.
What could lead Bitwig to write a file incorrectly?
Presumably, either file was truncated, or the file is complete but the block lengths were written incorrectly. Can a .bwproject file be salvaged or repaired under those circumstances?
For future versions of Bitwig, could a check be added when saving to make sure that the project is saved correctly, and perhaps saved as clips in the library when errors are detected?

Opening up a restaurant is in many ways a dream to their independent owners. Not only do they get to work in a field they are passionate about, they also get to do things their own way- they get to design the place, choose their own décor and decide on their own menu etc. But with this freedom, also comes a lot of responsibility. Here are some of the most common problems restaurant owners find themselves facing so you can prepare for this journey with all its ups and downs in mind.
Financial Aspects
Of course, the number one area where restaurants will suffer is financially. Opening a restaurant takes plenty of money- from renting out a place to hiring new staff and consistently making sure the kitchen is well stocked. The first few months are always the hardest and also where you'll be running at a loss because you're yet to build up a loyal customer base so essentially you need enough to keep yourself afloat till your setup base. This can take as long as a year!
Comprehensive Planning
The most important thing to consider that has a huge impact on your success is location. If a restaurant chooses a place with poor foot traffic, they're starting themselves off on the wrong path. Do some research before you lease out a building. Next consider what you can bring to your customers to stand out from the competing restaurants and cafes in the area. Most restaurants lack an original concept so they never take flight. Instagram-worthy designs have become a priority to drag in the influencers and their masses so this is something you can start on- essentially, keep up with the current market trends!
Restaurants usually have a high turnover rate, leading to frustrating work conditions and tight schedules. Owners need to put a lot of care into the staff they hire- from the waiters to the bar staff- because loyalty should be a top priority and not the lowest wage you can get your workers for. This will save you significantly in the long run. You also need to provide an environment of opportunities and most importantly- training. From the POS hardware to the ins and outs of keeping a customer happy, they need to know all the hacks.
Inventory Management
If you want to minimize waste and cut costs as much as possible, you need to stay on top of your inventory management. The real severity in failing to do this lies in running into supply shortages, and thus, unforeseen expenses needed to resolve the situation immediately. This would lead to a big holdup if it happens in peak business season. On the other end of the spectrum, if you have an overage of supplies, a significant portion of it could go to waste and once again, a crucial amount of your money will be wasted. You need to identify how much you need to run your restaurant smoothly and balance that inventory with consistency.
These are the most common problems you'll find restaurant owners facing in the current day and age. Make these aspects your focus in your long-term plan to improve on your efficiency as the years go by. This will take you from a struggling start-up to a raging restaurant.

I just got back from a trip to olympic national park where I rented this lens. Lots of photos to process to get them up here, but they'll come!
The lens was phenomenal. 560 isn't as long as I though it would be on full frame, but still more than I've ever had.
The IS was amazing. On a monopod I got sharp shots at 1/30 at 560mm.
The wildlife didn't cooperate as much as I wanted but I got a few keepers. However the creative uses and telephoto effect allowed some fantastic landscape shots that really capture the grand sizes of nature surrounding olympic national park.

Upcoming Talks
The bursting brain and the integrated nature of physiologic states: From neuronal avalanches to network physiology and beyond
Wednesday, August 8, 2018 13:00 - 14:00
Fabrizio Lombardi (Boston University)
Meeting room 1st floor / Central Bldg. (I01.1OG - Zentralgebäude)
Gasper Tkacik
Tkacik Gasper
Bursting dynamics is a recurrent feature in natural phenomena, and a fundamental property ofphysiological systems across the human body. In the brain, the near synchronous firing of manyneurons gives rise to collective behaviors such as oscillations and neuronal avalanches, key featuresof the resting activity of cortical networks. In the first part of this talk, I will discuss recent workson avalanche dynamics in cortex slice cultures and in mammalian brains (humans and rats) acrossthe sleep-wake cycle, with a particular emphasis on the relationship between criticality and thetemporal organization of neuronal avalanches. I will then switch the focus from the isolated brain tothe integrated network of organs in the human body, where different complex physiological systemscontinuously interact to optimize and coordinate their function, and produce distinct physiologicstates. Organ-to-organ interactions occur at multiple levels and spatiotemporal scales and areessential for an optimal global behaviour of the network. Despite the importance of theseinteractions for maintaining health, little is known about their nature and dynamics. Here I willdemonstrate how physiologic network topology and systems connectivity can be associated toemerging behaviors representative of distinct states and functions. I will also show that universal,age-independent laws govern physiological networks at different levels of integration in the humanbody (brain-brain, brain-organ and organ-organ), and that transitions across physiological states areassociated with specific changes in the network organization. These investigations represent a firststep towards a holistic approach to human physiology that aims to associate distinct conditions tonetworks of interactions inferred from synchronous recordings of several organs across the humanbody, and predict their evolution in response to perturbations (e.g. organ failure, medicaltreatments).

As a friend of mine once said 'A school is the safest place for a child to be' but this quote is clearly bullshit. He agrees with me. A school is not safe. No amount of teachers can stop the verbal bullying or even the physical bullying. People will always be bullied for one reason or another; the colour of their skin or hair, their height, their sex or the amount of people that they have fucked. The human race will always have retards who must compete with each other. Especially in the field of education. Harder, better, faster, stronger. If you are an academic then you compete with other kids over grades; if you are a sporty motherfucker then you compete with other sporty motherfuckers to see who is better at football or cricket. It's all bullshit really. There is no need to compete with anyone really. I mean, if you hate them and just want to step on their balls, beating them at something that they love is one of the best ways to do it.
A prime example of this is that today we got our end of year reports. Or grade sheets. Or (insert different word for the same thing here). Whatever you call them. it doesn't matter because the point is this: everyone just fucking argues over them. For the clever fuckers it's how many 'exceptional' grades for effort and shit that they got and for the dumb fuckers, it's how many detentions or PPP's (Problem Pupil Profiles. A shit idea really) they got. It saddens me to the core because really we should be either happy with the reports that we got or sad in the knowledge that we need to do better but probably never will…
In later posts, I will enlighten you all on the other aspects of school life; assessments, sports day, school taboo's and shit like that. So look out for those and in the mean time, I suppose, I will write them! Bye all.
