While Mosquito Squad protects families from the nuisance of mosquitoes, we understand that for many around the world the mosquito bite can be deadly. The most prevalent mosquito-borne disease is Malaria. Over 250 million Africans contract this preventable and treatable disease each year, resulting in over 1,000 deaths each day.
6 years ago The Squad started combatting Malaria through our partnership with Malaria No More, a global nonprofit organization with the goal of ending Malaria. While that goal may seem lofty, keep in mind malaria was eradicated from the United States just 50 years ago.
Our franchisees and corporate staff have warmly embraced our relationship with Malaria No More. Through donations The Squad has raised well over $250,000 to help stop Malaria. And we're not just sending money. Franchisees have traveled to Africa with Malaria No More to see first-hand the difference that we're making through educational programs, protective bed nets and malaria tests and treatment.
While we're passionate about the fight against Malaria, we also know that it's important to today's consumers that companies give back. According to a Cone Cause Evolution Survey, 87% of consumers say they would switch service providers if the brand was associated with a good cause (if price and quality of service remained the same).
Having a whole network of family of other people in business that are other franchisees and also having the great network of people at home base is huge to the business
The support has been great... support from other franchisees was awesome. They put me in touch with some of the more seasoned franchisees and they were very welcoming and allowed me to come visit them. I would say the support has been outstanding.
We love the idea of being our own bosses and growing a business that would give back to our community and allow us the flexibility to be with our young children

You Gotta Eat
One thing that can slip one's mind when planning a long distance medical transport is nutrition. The majority of our patients suffer from some form of chronic illness and many are of advanced age. At all points in the care and rehabilitation process an adequate diet is crucial. It should be standard for a service to consider your patient or loved-one's nutritional needs. This is why we include the price of patient and rider meals in our transport price. A patient or loved-one moving over long distance is subject to a lot of stress from bumpy roads and being anxious to get home. This stress increases the need for a diet that supplies the body with what it needs. Whether or not you choose Ameritrans to provide you with long distance transport, remember that a diet rich in nutrients and protein is vital to recovery.

Reading Psalm 73 this morning, I realize how much God has been teaching me the things it speaks of and how much I relate to the Psalmist's words. This is a Psalm written by Asaph, one of David's worship leaders (1 Chr. 16:4, 25:1-2, 2 Chr. 29:30).
I'm going to highlight just some of verses and what I have learned from the Lord relating to them. Don't you love when God is teaching you and you later discover it in the Word; even though you'd seen it plenty of times, it plunges deeper into you as He walks you through the experiential learning of it versus just merely reading it.
Behold, these are the ungodly,
who always prosper and are at ease in the world…
all the day long have I been smitten and plagued…
Until I went into the sanctuary of God;
then I understood [for I considered] their end [the wicked's]…
(excerpts from verse 12-17 AMP)
When I enter Your presence, all things come into their right perspective in my mind, they make sense in the light of You and Your truth (a great prayer to pray: Eph. 1:17-21). I am no longer grieved at what seems to be the prosperity of the wicked while often days can be a struggle for those seeking after Your heart. Yet I see the truth of the wicked's end, and I see Your love for me in that my end is with You just as You are always with me.
Nevertheless, I am continually with You; You do hold my right hand.
(verse 23 AMP)
In all things and through everything, You are always with me. Even when I am hurt or betrayed, angry or afraid. Even at my seemingly worst moments, You are with me. Especially compared with all temporary and earthly things, You never leave nor forsake me (Heb. 13:5-6 – very good in AMP), even when I miss the mark in sin and You discipline me–Your love does not change toward me (Heb. 12:5-7, Rom. 8:28-29). After all, You love even the unbeliever and the rebellious (gasp! YES, You do–for God so loved the world that He gave His only Son—Jn. 3:16-17), and that love is for the world, which includes those who don't even go after You one iota, and so also includes me who does aim to seek after You.
You will guide me with Your counsel…
(verse 24 AMP)
Always You, my Shepherd, are leading me in love (Song 2:4, Ps. 23). My perfect Leader, after what is best for me. You direct my steps and guide my life as I acknowledge and worship You above all even when I cannot see where You are leading me at certain moments (Pr. 3:5-6). You speak to me and I hear Your voice, yes, I hear it clearly! (DECLARE THIS! — Jn. 10:27). You are faithful to complete the work You started (Phil. 1:6) and to perfect all that concerns me (Ps. 138:7-8). You are my all, my everything. You are the Rock upon which I stand, upon which You set my feet (Ps. 40:1-4), You are my firm Strength, my Everything and all I truly ever have need of – the only One who truly satisfies:
Whom have I in heaven but You?
And I have no delight or desire on earth besides You.
My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the Rock and firm Strength of my heart
and my Portion forever.
For behold, those who are far from You shall perish…
But it is good for me o draw near to God;
I have put my trust in the Lord God and made Him my refuge,
that I may tell of all Your works.

Witness the amazing hamster wheel standing desk, perfect for the office rat race
We're huge fans of standing desks, and some people even take it further and have treadmill desks. Artist-in-residence at Autodesk's Pier 9 Robb Godshaw and Instructables Developer Will Doenlen collaborated on the design and construction of this hamster wheel desk, and put the whole thing up on Instructables so that you can build it too, and and you too can totally feel like your job is a rat race.
The hard part is evidently cutting out the rings; "precision is key to smooth operation of the wheel." They had access to a big waterjet cutter, but claim that it could be done with a hand router.
You might think it crazy to cut wood with water, but it saved us many hours of jig-making and saved a lot of wood because we could nest the parts within 1/8" of each other. Plus, the precision made for smooth rolling and perfect registration of the stacked pieces upon assembly.
It is a very clever design, with the wheel sitting on just four skateboard wheels. Some commenters suggest that it should be hooked up to a generator to power the computer, which wouldn't be too hard. There are advantages over the motorized treadmill desk; Godshaw told Huffington Post: The issues with treadmills are that you don't set your own pace, and they're not interesting as furniture."
Perhaps Godshaw should get together with David Garcia, who designed this rolling library. It might add a bit of rolling resistance but kills a few more birds with one stone.

Concierge Auctions To Sell 10-Acre, Gated "Windy Hills Estate" With Custom Amenities And A Guest Residence Outside Of Chattanooga, Tennessee At A Live Auction
8,700-square-foot estate with ample entertaining space to sell to the highest bidder on May 10th in cooperation with Alliance Sotheby's International Realty
Apr 16, 2013
OOLTEWAH, Tenn., April 16, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- A stately southern mansion and guest residence with custom amenities perched atop a hill, located on 10 acres offering panoramic mountain and city views of nearby Chattanooga, perfect for entertaining guests on a grand scale, will sell at a live auction Without Reserve on May 10th, NYC-based Concierge Auctions has announced. Located less than 30 minutes from downtown Chattanooga at 2363 Heavenly View Drive, the grand estate — originally listed for $5.3 million — will sell to the highest bidder in cooperation with Debbie Elliott-Sexton and Sandy Poe of Alliance Sotheby's International Realty. This is the second time Concierge has partnered with Elliott-Sexton, following their sale of Villa Collina, a stunning, 36,000-square-foot estate in nearby Knoxville.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130416/NY95675)
"Alliance Sotheby's International Realty considers it a pleasure to partner with Concierge Auctions again, this time to present the Windy Hills Estate auction," Elliott-Sexton stated. "This is a sophisticated residence that stands tall — almost magically — atop a hill with breathtaking views and the best amenities offered in a luxury home."
"The Windy Hills Estate is an exquisite, inspired property — one of the finest in the Chattanooga area," Poe added. "It's impeccably crafted with high-quality finishes, offering the very essence of luxury, elegance and comfort. Debbie and I are privileged to be a part of the process and look forward to naming a new owner on auction day."
Comprised of more than 8,700 square feet of living space behind a ceremonial gate, The Windy Hills Estate includes four bedroom suites, five full and one half bathrooms, imported fireplaces, cultured glass, soaring ceilings and expansive windows. Other highlights include an elegant full bar adjoining the formal dining room, a gourmet kitchen and countless indoor and outdoor living spaces that seamlessly intertwine. Each bedroom suite is located in its own separate area, offering the ultimate in privacy, and each has a poolside balcony for captivating sunset views. Outdoors, the property has gorgeous landscaping, multiple, spa-like infinity pools, a lavish outdoor entertainment area with multi-level patios for entertaining guests and a three-car side entry with a heated garage. The guest home offers an additional 2,800 square feet including two bedrooms and two bathrooms.
"The sale of unique, high-end residences is our expertise, and The Windy Hill Estate fits into our mold perfectly. It's architecturally stunning and offers the best finishes and amenities," stated Laura Brady, President of Concierge Auctions. "Our auctions motivate real sellers and present rare and significant opportunities for buyers who are able to name their own bid price on auction day. Having most recently successfully sold Villa Collina in the area, we're confident in another successful outcome in Tennessee on May 10th."
Located in Hamilton County, TN, named after Alexander Hamilton, the first Secretary of the Treasury, Ooltewah is a small town and Cherokee Indian word meaning "owls nest." Windy Hills Estate is less than 30 minutes from Chattanooga, considered by many to be a top southern travel destination thanks to its outdoor adventure, amazing restaurants, live events, art and world-class attractions. Tucked between the mountains of southeast Tennessee along the Tennessee River, the New York Times included Chattanooga in its article last year titled "The 45 Places to Go In 2012." Chattanooga is the fourth largest city in Tennessee, located about two hours from both Nashville and Atlanta, GA. The Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport, also known as Lovell Field, is located five miles east of Chattanooga's central business district.
The auction of the Windy Hills Estate will be held live on May 10th. A 2% commission is offered to the buyer's representing broker. The property is open for preview daily from 1 to 4 p.m. See Auction Terms and Conditions for full details.

Blueberry Pie Smoothie, that's super creamy and warm to help take the chill out of the cold mornings. With the addition of porridge oats and lots of other delicious ingredients this breakfast smoothie is very satisfying as well as filling.
On a cold damp morning, more often than not I will automatically head to the cupboard and pull out an essential ingredient that gets overused in my house in the colder months: porridge oats. A warm comforting bowl of porridge seems like the perfect way to start the day when the weather isn't up to much outside. Don't get me wrong, I love my smoothies and regular blog readers will know this, however, the fact that they can be freezing cold does put me off them a little in autumn and winter.
A few of my smoothie favourites are my Turmeric & Coconut Smoothie, Chia Berry Blast Smoothie, Chocolate Pear Pudding Smoothie and Blood Orange and Cashew Smoothie.
What I love about smoothies is the convenience and speed in which you can make them. I often find myself killing two birds with one stone and drinking a nutrition packed smoothie while getting ready or checking my emails. If you love your smoothies but are put off by cold breakfasts in autumn and winter then the ideal solution is to make them warm.
A Blueberry Pie Smoothie, that's super creamy and warm to help take the chill out of the cold mornings
- 100g fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/2 banana
- 25 g porridge oats
- 300 ml almond milk
- 2 tbsp Greek yoghurt
- 2 tsp chia seeds
- 1-3 tsp honey or maple syrup (depending on your preferences)
First mix the porridge oats and almond milk together and cook in the microwave for a few minutes until combined.
In the meantime, pour all of the other ingredients into the blender and blitz together until smooth. When the porridge is ready, add it to the blender and blitz to incorporate into the smoothie.
Pour into your favourite mug or glass and enjoy!
With this smoothie, you get the best of both worlds: a delicious rich blueberry packed smoothie and a dose of warm oats. The porridge makes the smoothie silky smooth as well as the addition of the Greek yoghurt, which also helps to make this one very filling, so a great kick-start to the day. I think this one is a lovely introduction to smoothies as it tastes like dessert and my little boy loves it!

FAQs & Glossary
Details and useful facts
We have constructed a wide ranging Help section and alphabetical Glossary to assist online by speedily finding information.
Fair, Wear & Tear
Fair, wear and tear is when the vehicle is damaged beyond normal expectations in a contract term of a vehicle, charges are applied.
Fair Wear & Tear Guidelines
The definition of 'Fair Wear and Tear' can often an area of dispute in leasing scenarios so the British Vehicle Rental and Leasing Association (BVRLA) publish clear guidelines as to what should be regarded as fair. It is unrealistic for lessors to expect back a fleet car in showroom condition, and hence the industry term of "fair wear and tear" - which sets an industry standard for the "reasonable" condition of the car for age and mileage at end of lease.
Final Rental/Payment
This is the final rental or payment, that may be a balloon or Guaranteed Minimum future value. Once this has been paid, including any option to purchase fee, the vehicle is yours to keep.
Finance and Leasing Association (FLA)
The FLA Lending Code 2004 sets out standards of good practice for the industry and is intended to reassure anyone who applies for finance from FLA's full members that they are doing business with reputable organisations. For more information please visit www.fla.org.uk.
Finance Company
A Finance Company is a company which lends money to customers via a Credit Agreement.
Finance Lease
Finance Lease agreements enable customers to either (1) pay the entire vehicle cost, fees and interest across an agreed term in monthly installments - which is also known as a Full Payout Lease, or (2) opt to pay lower monthly payments with a final lump sum payment at the end of the agreement - which is also known as a Balloon Lease.
Financial Difficulties
Financial Difficulties is as per definition as payment difficulties.
Fixed Cost Maintenance (FCM)
Fixed Cost Maintenance plans are, primarily, pay monthly contracts designed to help you budget for those unavoidable costs that come with looking after your vehicle. Your plan can be tailored to you and your needs and include 3 levels of cover: (1) service only, (2) service and maintenance, and (3) service, maintenance and tyres. Please see Service, Maintenance and Tyres for more information.
Fixed interest rate
This is when the rate of interest you pay on a credit agreement is fixed at the time you borrow money. The main advantage of a credit agreement with a fixed rate of interest is that you know exactly how much you'll be repaying each month, and that the amount remains the same for the life of the loan.
Fixed Price Servicing (FPS)
Our Fixed Price Service plans are pay up front packages that cover your services over a set number of years or miles.
Flat rate
Flat Rate is the monthly interest rate charged on the amount borrowed over the term. It does not take into account the reduction in the capital when payments are made so does not accurately reflect the total cost of lending. Flat rates should not be confused with APR.


text: Home >Core Rules > Healing Follow @OpenGamingStore Contents1 Injury and Recovery2 Natural Healing3 Medical Treatment4 Healing and Mental Characteristics Injury and Recovery Injured characters are either wounded or seriously wounded. A character is considered seriously wounded if he has lost at least one point from all three of his physical characteristics. As soon as one of his physical characteristics is restored, no matter how, he is no longer seriously wounded. Seriously wounded characters who have somehow avoided unconsciousness cannot move except to hobble or crawl along at 1.5 metres per combat round. They also lose their minor action in combat. Wounded characters heal naturally and can also benefit from medical care. When characteristic points return from healing, players may choose which characteristic regains the points and may split healing between characteristics if they wish. Natural Healing An injured character regains a number of characteristic points equal to his 1d6 + Endurance DM per day of full rest. If the character continues an active lifestyle he only heals a number of characteristic points equal to 1 + Endurance DM per day. Characters with a low Endurance DM (quite possibly from injury) may degrade (lose more characteristic points) over time if they are unlucky or cannot (or will not) rest. A seriously wounded character only regains characteristic points equal to his Endurance DM per day of rest, which means that the character may never heal naturally and will even get worse if his Endurance DM is currently negative. Medical Treatment First Aid: Applying first aid restores a number of characteristic points equal to twice the Effect of the Medic check. Points restored by first aid are divided as desired among all damaged physical characteristics. First aid must be applied within five minutes of the injuries being received to be fully effective. A character can still benefit from first aid up to an hour after their injury but they only receive a number of characteristic points equal to the Effect of the Medic check. Performing first aid on yourself is a Difficult (-2) task. Surgery: A character who is seriously wounded (after first aid has been applied) requires surgery. Surgery restores characteristic points just like first aid but if the check is failed the patient loses characteristic points equal to the Effect. Surgery requires a hospital or sickbay. Once one characteristic is back to its maximum level the patient can benefit from medical care. Surgery does not benefit characters who are not seriously wounded. Performing surgery on yourself is a Very Difficult (-4) task. Medical Care: Medical care restores 2 + the character's Endurance DM + the doctor's Medic skill in characteristic points per day, divided evenly among all damaged characteristics. Medical care requires a hospital or sickbay and for the patient to undergo full bed rest. Augmentation and Medical Care: Cybernetic or genetic augments can interfere with medical treatment. All medical care or surgery Medic rolls treating a character suffer a negative DM equal to the difference in Technology Level between the medical facility and the highest relevant implant. Healing and Mental Characteristics Other than Psionic Strength, characters may also suffer damage to their Intelligence or even their Education. Unless otherwise specified, each mental characteristic heals at the rate of one point per day.

There is a further bedroom on the ground floor level.
Astley Green is located in Astley village, some 12 miles due West of Manchester city centre, and offers three and four bedroom homes in eight different designs and finishes. This gives the entire development a settled and well established feel, with different types of facades and layouts creating the sense of a living community that has evolved naturally over time. The show-home opens on 25.07.15. With prices from �270,000 (�216,000 with Help to Buy) for the 4 bedroomed house you can see that these homes cost more per square foot than many comparable homes for sale in this area - even those that are much closer to the city centre.

The Weekend Starts Tomorrow
We knew the March Madness sale would be popular - but not THIS popular. Wow!
We're packing and shipping the orders as fast as we can, trying our best to keep up with our speedy reputation, but can hardly keep stock on the shelves before it starts flying out again. If you haven't checked out the massive sale at Racket Records yet, don't miss out - supplies of many items are already running low or already sold out! Once it's gone, it's gone - we're clearing the shelves to make room for the new releases this year.
We kept our promise last week to ship on the first day, so a lot of you will already have the latest new releases. We're hearing great things about the "Colours and Sound" documentary - although have noticed most of you have yet to even REACH the second disc of extras! "Unzipped (The Making of Anoraknophobia)" has also been flying out.
Full details on the sale, special offers, and all the new releases are available at www.marillion.com/shop
But now the important reminder: the Marillion Weekend 2007 will go on sale tomorrow, Tuesday 7th March, 2006. More importantly, though, this Early Booking Period is ONLY for members of the official Web fan clubs.
If you're not a member (and receiving this eWeb newsletter does not necessarily mean you are a paying member of a Web club!) then tickets will not be available to you until 3rd April, 2006. If you want to book early and are not a member, head over to www.marillion.com/web for a full list of websites and contact details for ALL our Web fan clubs.
Full details on the Marillion Weekend 2007 (including dates, location, contact details, questions and answers, pricing events, facilities, and more...) - and, of course, the booking forms! - are all available at www.marillionweekend.com

Experiment: How do plants "see" light?
Can Plants Really "See" the Light?
Have you ever noticed how plants bend toward light? How are they able to tell which direction the light is coming from, and how do they bend toward it? They don't have eyes or muscles, after all.
Scientists call a plant's ability to bend toward light phototropism. Even as far back as ancient Greece it's been a big puzzle about how plants are able to do it. People experimented with how plants accomplish this amazing feat, but no one really figured out how it worked—until Charles Darwin came along, that is.
Although Darwin is most well-known for his studies on evolution, he was also a prolific scientist in general. The questions about phototropism piqued his curiosity, and he thought of an ingenious experiment to test how plants are able to see light. In this experiment, we'll recreate what he did, and at the end we'll dive further into the science.
3 small cups full of soil
Tape, a marker, and 3 sticky notes
Medium-sized box (such as a shoebox or a storage cube)
12 corn seeds
Aluminum foil
Small cookie sheet that fits inside the box (or another sheet of aluminum foil)
1 Straw
- Plant four corn seeds in each of the soil cups. Make sure they're evenly spaced, and plant them just a half inch under the dirt.
- Create labels for each of the following using a sticky note, and stick to one of each soil cup:
- Control
- Tip
- Base
- Water the cups, and dump out any excess water (be careful not to tip the soil and seeds out). Place the cups on the cookie sheet or aluminum foil. This will prevent moisture and dirt from soaking through the box.
- Place the cups/cookie sheet setup inside of the box. Make sure it's open on one side so that light is coming in from an angle. Place in a windowsill, with the open side facing the sun. (You might need to stack some books underneath it to support it, if your windowsill isn't very wide.)
- Make four of each type of light-exclusion device:
- Shoot cap: Cut a small 2″ x 3″ square of aluminum foil. Wrap it around the tip of a straw to create a small, closed-ended metal cap, and slide it off. This will be placed over the tip of the growing shoot to cover any light coming in to the tip.
- Base sleeve: Cut a small 1/2″ x 3″ square of aluminum foil. Wrap it around the middle of a straw so it creates a small open-ended 1/2″ tall tube, and slide it off. This will be placed around the growing shoot so that it can grow through it.
- Check the cups each day. Once they send up a shoot about half an inch high, place either a shoot cap (on Tip seedlings) or a base sleeve (on Base seedlings) around them, depending on which cup they're in. The control cup will get neither of the light exclusion devices. The seedlings might grow at different rates, so be sure to check each day to put the caps/sleeves on as needed. They grow fast once they germinate!
- Continue to water the seedlings as needed.
- Check the seedlings after a week. What has happened? Compare the seedlings with the caps and the sleeves to the control seedlings. Are any of them growing in certain directions?
How did the seedlings "see" the light?
If the experiment worked correctly, you should have noticed that the seedlings that were covered with caps at the tip grew straight up, while the control seedlings and the seedlings with the bases covered bent towards the light. This is phototropism in action.
Darwin correctly concluded that plants are able to "see" light using the tips of the plant shoots, rather than through the stalks. It wasn't until a bit later that scientists figured out exactly why that was, though.
It turns out that plants are able to grow by using hormones such as auxins and gibberellins. Auxin in particular tells individual cells to reach out and grow longer, like Stretch Armstrong. It's one of the ways that plants grow taller. Normally, plants growing with an unshaded light source will grow straight up towards the sun because auxin is evenly distributed all around the shoot.
But when the light is heavily shaded and comes in from an angle, something interesting happens. Auxin starts to concentrate on the shaded side of the plant instead, and as a result, the cells on the sunny side stay the same size but the cells on the shaded side grow longer. This causes the plant to tip and grow towards the light.
Auxin is primarily produced in the tips of the plants. This is why the plant grew straight up when you covered the tip with a cap—it couldn't "see" the light anymore! The tips of the control seedlings and the seedlings with the bases covered could still sense the light, so they grew towards the sunlight.
Thanks to Charles Darwin and modern science, the mystery of how plants grow towards light was finally solved.

Aspect Software accelerates the race to replace legacy NICE, Verint workforce optimisation solutions
* Aspect's new state-of-the-industry solutions to help NICE and Verint customers struggling with older, outdated and end-of-life quality management and call recording applications.
* Programme offers customers free Aspect EQ Recording Basic with no license fee or Aspect EQ Quality Management Advanced with no recording license fee when replacing a NICE or Verint recorder.
* Intuitive, easy-to-use, and easier-deployed solutions delivered with better customer support and responsiveness from Aspect.
For companies struggling to optimise their customer service workforce, there is a race to replace older, end-of-life workforce optimisation components that fail to address the technology needs of today's consumer interaction initiatives. To expedite this transition, Aspect, a leading provider of fully-integrated consumer engagement, workforce optimisation, and self-service solutions, today announced a replacement program aimed at helping companies upgrade their legacy NICE and Verint recorders. Companies that are dissatisfied and frustrated with outdated technology, exorbitant maintenance expenditures, and expensive upgrade costs have a compelling alternative with Aspect.
"Quality management and interaction recording technology have seen significant advances in functionality over the past five to ten years, materially raising the compliance bar. A contact centre workforce running on outdated technology cannot keep up with today's increasing demand for exceptional, personalised customer experiences, and as a result is put at a critical disadvantage," says Mike Bourke, SVP and General Manager, Workforce Optimisation, Aspect Software. "Aspect's sleek, intuitive user Interface for recording, quality management and speech analytics is designed to address the data consumption and work habits of the millennial workforce, so they are more productive and engaged, making quality goals easier to achieve."
Older, functionally-outdated solutions that are nearing, or already past end-of-life, such as those from NICE and Verint, cannot easily incorporate more modern WFO tools such as speech analytics or advanced quality management and are often cost-prohibitive to upgrade. In order to capture and capitalise on the interactions between agent and customer, both the agent workforce and supervisors need superior quality management, recording, and reporting applications.
Some of the advantages of Aspect EQ Recording/Quality Management include:
* Full-Time Call and Screen Recording - users can capture all conversations.
* New Icon and Widget-Based User Interface - makes agents and management more productive and engaged.
* Reduced Hardware Requirement - supports software-based recording of customer interactions (i.e. hardware boards are no longer required) eliminating the need for recording servers when integrated with Aspect's contact centre solutions, reducing total cost of ownership.
* Expanded Cisco Support - now supports integration with Cisco Contact Center Enterprise (UCCE) and UCCM, a commonly-used contact centre infrastructure solution.
* Robust Search and Playback - simpler yet more powerful set of search and playback tools.
* Enables PCI Compliance - data encryption and pause/resume capabilities are included in bundles. AES 256-bit encryption used for secure transmission of all audio and screen data over the network.
* Aspect's world class customer support - Averaging response times 5x faster, resolution times that are 3x faster, and more cases closed in the first 24 hours when compared to technology industry averages.
Promotion Terms
To qualify for the #freerecording license offer for Aspect EQ Recording Basic or Aspect EQ Quality Management Advanced on-premises packages, customers must have a NICE or Verint recorder currently under maintenance. Offer is available globally and valid until 31/12/16 or the first 50 eligible sales. Click here for the complete terms and conditions of the NICE/Verint Legacy Recorder Promotion.

BCN Horticultural offers a wide variety of services that focus on one central theme: sensitivity to the environmental conditions and the needs of our client. We are committed to using techniques that employ Plant Health Care practices, which enhance and improve the health of the landscape. These practices include site analysis, soil testing and interpretation, proper pruning to achieve plant form, fertilization strategies, and proper planting techniques.
September is for rejuvenating the lawn
The heat is finally gone and the cool, crisp air of fall is upon us. This change in seasons ushers in a new set of landscape practices critical for the health of your landscape. First thing we need to do is aerate and fertilize that stressed lawn that probably looks like a burned out field by now. Aeration extracts and loosens the soil so as to decompact the lawn from all the abuse it took throughout the year. Aeration can improve root growth, increase soil microorganism, and help prevent fertilizer run-off. Aerators can be rented at any landscape supply store and are very easy to use. Along with aerating the lawn you should also apply fertilizer in the fall in order to help the turf recover from the summer stress and to store food supplies for the winter monthes. These are just a few things to consider when you stare out your window onto that once beautifully green lawn you used to have, but with a little work you can easily bring it back to life.

I have a problem whereby, given an arbitrary polygon with any number of points, I need to cover the whole area by a number of fixed size squares. I can easily find a set of squares which covers the polygon but I need to ensure that I find the minimum number of squares.
Can anyone suggest a good method to do this?
Thanks in advance.

The toolbar
Unlike with most other Apple applications, iPhoto's toolbar sits at the bottom of the window. It bears a feature for searching your library, controls for increasing or decreasing the size of thumbnails and images in the main viewing window, the Slideshow button that I've mentioned, and—in most views—Info, Edit, Create, Add To, and Share items. Let's run through them.
Search: Click the Search button, and a field appears where you can search for images by title, description, date, keyword, or rating.
Zoom: The Zoom slider appears when you're looking at thumbnail images or full-size pictures. If you zoom in to the point where the image exceeds the size of the display, a small Navigation window pops up to show a small representation of the image, with the active part of the image displayed in full color and the portions you can't see in a lighter tone. To navigate around the picture, drag the active portion of the image within this window. To view a thumbnail or a full-size image at its highest zoomed-out or zoomed-in setting, just click the small icon at the left or right side of the Zoom slider, respectively.
Info: Click this button to expose the Info pane. Within this pane you'll find much of the metadata attached to the image, including the file's name, the date and time the image was made, the camera that captured the image, the file format, the camera's focal length at the time of capture, the image's size, and the ISO, aperture, and exposure settings. You can also rate the image by clicking one of the five stars, and you can add a description to it. You will also see a Sharing entry if you've shared the image with a service.
Faces and Places entries are present here as well. Again, this is a subject we'll address in a future lesson.
Edit: One of the wonders of digital photography is that darkrooms are, for the majority of us, a thing of the past. We can do all our image editing on our computers. iPhoto offers just such a virtual darkroom. Within it you can crop and straighten images; change their exposure, contrast, and saturation; and add special effects (convert color pictures to black-and-white or give them an old-time look, for example). The means for making such changes in iPhoto is the Edit button.
Click Edit, and you see three tabs: Quick Fixes, Effects, and Adjust. We'll explore photo editing in another lesson, but for the time being let's look at how they work in a broad sense. The Quick Fixes tab presents Rotate, Enhance, Fix Red-Eye, Straighten, Crop, and Retouch options. You use the Effects tab to change the general exposure or color cast of your images or to apply overall effects such as Black and White, Sepia, Vignette, or Boost. And the Adjust tab is where you make finer changes such as altering exposure, contrast, saturation, definition, highlights, shadows, and sharpness, as well as tweaking de-noise settings.
Create: Click this item to produce a pop-up menu with options to create an album, book, card, calendar, or slideshow. (These same options are available in iPhoto's File menu.)
Add To: Another pop-up menu, Add To allows you to add selected events or images to an album, slideshow, Photo Stream, book, card, or calendar.
Share: Yep, another pop-up menu. Click it to see Order Prints, Twitter, Flickr, Facebook, Email, Messages, and Photo Stream options. When you choose Order Prints, the iPhoto window displays an Order Prints area where you can pick the size and the number of prints for the selected images. Click Buy Now, and Apple will process the order via your Apple ID, much as you purchase content through the iTunes Store or App Store. The images will be printed by a photo processor and mailed to you when ready.
If you choose the Twitter, Flickr, or Facebook entry, iPhoto will prompt you to enter your username and password for that service. Once you do so, you can go on to share your images through the service.
Selecting the Email entry creates an email message within iPhoto by default. (You can choose to use Mail instead by selecting Mail from the 'Email photos using' pop-up menu in iPhoto's General preference.) When creating a message in iPhoto, you'll find a To field, a filled-in subject heading, and a From pop-up menu in which you can choose the account for sending your message. To the right are templates, much as you'd find in Apple's Mail. Thumbnails of the selected images will appear in these templates along with some text fields that you can fill in.
Below these templates is an option for attaching the photos to the message, along with a Photo Size pop-up menu (Optimized, Small, Medium, Large, and Actual Size) that's active if you've enabled the Attach photos to message option. These settings exist not only for the benefit of those who receive the images, but also to help ensure that the pictures you send actually reach their destination. Some email services limit the size of messages that you can send through them—a 10MB limit is common. If you choose Optimized, iPhoto will do its darndest to make sure that the mail will go through by creating image attachments that will slip under such a limit.
Regardless of which photo size you choose, at the bottom of the message you'll see a Message Size entry followed by the size of the message and the number of attached photos. This information can help guide you when you're choosing a size.
When choosing Messages, be aware that you can attach no more than ten images to a single message. Also, attached images will likely be converted to a smaller size.
And when you choose Photo Stream, you can place your image in a shared photo stream that other people can subscribe to. I'll show you how to do that in another lesson.
The big picture
Finally, there's the main viewing window. When you select Events or Photos in the Library pane, you'll see thumbnail images of your events or photos, respectively. Choose Faces, and a corkboard displays thumbnails of the people you've identified. Click Places, and a world map displays red pins to indicate locations where you've taken pictures. Thumbnail images will appear when you select most items under Recent or Albums.
When you choose Photo Stream, you'll see all the images in the one photo stream you have, or, if you've chosen to share images in separate photo-stream albums, you'll see each stream represented as an album.
Select an item under the Slideshows heading, and the viewing window will split into two parts. At the top will be thumbnails of your images arrayed along a line; you can drag thumbnails within this line to change the order of the images within the slideshow. Below the thumbnails, the selected image appears at a larger size. If you click the first slide, you'll see a text area, which holds the name of your slideshow. To change that name, just click the text field and type in a new title.
When you select a slideshow, you'll also see new items in iPhoto's toolbar for assigning a theme to the slideshow, choosing music to accompany it, and editing its play time per slide and transitions. Again, we'll go over the ins and outs of slideshows in another lesson.
Hover your cursor over a thumbnail, and two items appear: a downward-pointing triangle and a gray flag. Click the triangle to view options for that image; you can rotate it, hide it, or trash it. In addition, you can assign a rating to it, cut or copy it, and, in views other than Events, show the event to which it belongs. In the case of thumbnails within events, you'll find a Make Key Photo option here. Select that when you want the picture to act as the cover image that represents the event.
As for the gray flag, you can click it to add the image to the Flagged album, which you'll find in the Library pane.
To fill the viewer with an image, just double-click it. Above the image you'll spy arrows for moving back or forward through your images. (You can use your Mac's arrow keys for the same purpose.) To return to thumbnail view, just click the left-pointing arrow at the top-left corner of the viewer (which may read 'Photos' or 'All Events' or the name of an album you've created, depending on your starting point).
Where we go from here
As I said, iPhoto is a far deeper application than it appears. You now have the lay of the land, but we have much more to explore. In the coming weeks we'll look at importing and sharing images, working with albums, editing pictures, using Faces and Places, and creating slideshows and projects.
Next week: Importing and sharing images.

New discovery: Gallant - Weight In Gold
Blessed with a celestial voice, he sets himself apart by shoving dirty great synth lines all over his music. The result will make your stomach plunge. But in a pleasurable way, like going over a speedbump.
His new single Weight in Gold was Zane Lowe's first ever "Future Exclusive" (a tautology if ever I've heard one) the other night. Since then, it's racked up 214,000 Soundcloud streams, suggesting the switch from Radio 1 hasn't diminished Lowe's status as a kingmaker.
Listen below.
If you like that, you should check out Gallant's previous singles, Talking in Your Sleep, Open Up, and his cover of Foo Fighters' Learn to Fly.
* Not literally, that would be painful.

Controls Impact Soil Tester
Peak values are shown on a digital display. One Impact Value unit on the 0-100 display scale equals ten "g" (gravitational deceleration).
The tester measures the deceleration of a hammer free-falling onto the soil surface. The Impact Value is determined after four hammer drops to the same spot. Speed and ease of use enable many tests to be performed over a wide area. As many as 250 tests can be performed in a half-day.
The Standard 10 lb (4.5kg) model with 18" (450mm) drop and 2" (50mm) diameter hammer face is the original version, in use for over 20 years for evaluation of compacted soil and pavement materials with aggregates below 1.5" (38mm).

Just in time for those arriving for Florida-side programs in the spring – please be aware of the following updates to your packing list!
Cable television service:
We are excited to bring to Housing upgraded cable television service from Spectrum Communications. This new package includes local favorites, popular cable channels, more sports channels and a number of Spanish language channels. It also features 50 channels of music, and most channels are delivered in HD.
What you need to know:
- This service is direct from the wall (no cable box) and has only one connection in the living room area.
- Analog, or "tube style," televisions are not able to receive the cable signal.
- Additionally, there are several models of flat screen TVs that do not have the proper tuner to receive a signal. Check the user manual to ensure your set is digital ready, and has a QAM tuner. If it is not compatible, an adapter may be purchased to tune the signal properly.
Internet Service:
Wi-Fi service is now available in all apartments! In addition to the numerous hot spots we have around property, every apartment will be able to access a Wi-Fi signal, which is significantly faster than our previous service.
What you need to know:
- The Wi-Fi signal is the only connection option, so you do not need to bring a wireless router.
- If you are using a desktop computer or other hard-wired device, you will need to purchase a wireless adapter to connect to the internet (unless the device is also wireless-ready).
- Wireless internet-ready devices such as printers or video game consoles also have a Wi-Fi signal for your use.
- Instructions for logging in will be provided at your check-in.
We hope these changes enhance your programs Housing experience. We look forward to meeting our new arrivals!

Washington, Feb. 13 (CNA) Taiwan's representative to the U.S. Stanley Kao (高碩泰) emphasized Taiwan's commitment to fighting "sharp power" and championing human rights and economic freedoms in a letter published on a U.S. political newspaper Tuesday.
Kao's letter to the editor of The Hill, titled "Taiwan remains a partner in upholding democratic values," highlighted the country's determination to "continue to work with our friends in upholding universal values of democracy, freedom, and human rights."
The Taiwan official addressed the increasing use of sharp power by authoritarian regimes around the world to undermine democratic rights and the open market.
Sharp power is a term coined by scholars Christopher Walker and Jessica Ludwig of the National Endowment for Democracy referring to the information that certain governments spread in order to manipulate their target audience.
Like soft power, sharp power targets people through non-military influence and information, but unlike soft power, it distorts the perception of reality to achieve the goals of the government wielding it.
In response to the threats of soft power, which Walker and Ludwig have attributed mostly to China and Russia, Kao wrote: "Taiwan firmly stands with the United States and like-minded countries in fighting against such intolerant acts of coercion."
He cited two reports -- Freedom House's annual report and the Heritage Foundation's Index of Economic Freedom -- to demonstrate how committed to human rights and freedoms Taiwan has been.
Taiwan was ranked the second freest country in Asia, just after Japan, with a score of 93 out of 100 in Freedom House's report, and ranked 13th among 186 economies in the world in the 2018 Index of Economic Freedom.

A doubleheader sweep of second place Ypsilanti Lincoln clinched the second straight SEC White title for the Chelsea softball team Tuesday.
The Bulldogs pulled away from the Splitters late in the opener to take the contest 6-1.
Grace Bush smacked a two-run homer to right field to give the Bulldogs a 2-0 lead in the second.
Maddy Kemp was dominant on the mound until the fifth when the Splitters led off the inning with a double and a bunt single to put runners on the corners with nobody out. Following a pop-up, the Splitters pushed one across on a bunt and put a runner on third with two outs, but Kemp got the final batter with a strikeout to end the threat with the Bulldogs leading 2-1.
Lincoln put a runner on first with one out in the sixth, but Sydnee Liedel made a fine running catch in right-center then fired to Bush at first base to double off the runner to the inning.
Alise Hale led off the bottom of the sixth with a home run to make it 3-1 and the Bulldogs would tack on three more in the sixth for a 6-1 lead which they would hold on to for the win. Kemp struck out ten on the mound.
Caroline Hirth led the offense with three hits and an RBI, while Maddie Vasquez had two hits and a run scored. Bush and Hale each had a home run.
The second game saw Hale rip an RBI single in the bottom of the seventh for an 8-7 walk-off win for the Bulldogs.
Chelsea took a 5-2 lead with four runs in the third and led 8-4 heading into the seventh.
Lincoln rallied for four runs in the seventh to tie the game at eight and set up the exciting finish.
Kemp led off the seventh with a walk and advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by Phoebe Kahler. With two outs Hale ripped a single to center scoring Kemp with the winning league title-winning run.
Vasquez had a big game with four hits and two RBI, while Hale finished with three hits and two RBI. Peighton Root had two hits and two RBI, Liedel two hits and three runs scored and Hirth a hit and RBI.
The Bulldogs then defeated Ann Arbor Pioneer 7-1 in an SEC crossover Thursday.
Bush had a big game with another home run and finished with three hits and two RBI. Root had two hits and an RBI, Hale another home run, Hirth and Liedel a hit and RBI each.
The Bulldogs wrapped up league play by rolling to a doubleheader sweep of Pinckney Thursday 11-0 and 15-0.
Kemp struck out nine and allowed just three hits in the opener.
Chelsea blew the game open with seven runs in the seventh.
Root had a big game with three hits and four RBI. Hannah Kahler had three hits and scored two and Hale three hits and one RBI. Hines and Kemp each had two hits and two RBI. One of Kemps hits was a home run.
Hayley Townsend allowed just two hits and struck out three for the win in the second game.
Root smashed a three-run homer and finished with four hits and six RBI. Liedel added a home run and three hits and two RBI, Hines a home run, two hits and two RBI, and Stephanie Dark a hit and three RBI.
Chelsea improved to 32-5-1 on the season.

Given the limitations of my PhotoShop brushes (I was really looking for more of a "splatter" effect), I decided that the final pear would be pointillism (which I know is an effect that you can apply to a picture, but I didn't do that).
I've never been much for pointillism (painting it, I love looking at it). I normally don't have the patience or the consistency to do pointillist pictures. This computer pen allowed for a certain amount of gracelessness. (You can see unintentional variety of points, which I think makes it look pretty cool).
So, that's four different pears. I'm peared-out now, and am looking forward to moving onto something else. But the thing that has been most fun about doing these pears is that I haven't been looking at the previous day's pear for comparison. So it's fun to see just how similar I was able to make them without "copying" them. And I've enjoyed scrolling down the page to see the differences.
Sometimes exercises can be fun.
I'm also including (below the fold) the first day's pear with the PhotoShop Pixellate>Pointillize effect on, just to see how differently the computer did it than I did.

If you didn't already know, Hannah Witton is writing a book. Yes, the queen of all things feminism and sex ed is putting all of her A+ knowledge into one gloriously empowering book filled with hilarious anecdotes and important info we could all do with knowing when it comes to our bodies and sex.
Who needs crappy sex education in school when we have Hannah, right? Right!
The book will be aptly named 'Doing It' and we are more than a little bit excited. More so now that Hannah has uploaded a video to her YouTube channel answering all our questions on her writing process.
Unsurprisingly, her tips were pretty ace, so we thought we'd do you a service and compile them into one neat list.
- How to deal with writer's block? Just keep writing. Force yourself through it. Something on the page after 30 minutes is better than nothing at all.
- Hannah keeps her bedroom a laptop free zone and instead writes at her kitchen table. This creates a more productive routine.
- Musicals are great. Use their soundtracks as a bit of background noise whilst you write.
- Writing something real that you've genuinely experienced is quite cathartic. (That's what we got from the whole break up thing — we'll date you, Hannah!)
- With structure, Hannah and her team initially decided what topics they wanted included in the book and then moved bits and bobs around as Hannah has gradually been writing the book.
Hannah also revealed in the comments that 'Doing It' will be out in spring 2017. We're marking our calendars as we speak!
Are you as excited for 'Doing It' as we are? Tweet us @maximumpop. If you're not, you definitely should be. Hannah is an absolute babe, we love her.

Yellow Bikini at the Valencia beach
The ocean is my happy place. I love how the salt dries on your skin and the warm breeze makes your hair frizzy and the ocean seems endless. Its just those moments where I feel safe and happy and unimportant. Big cities make us numb for the real beauty of life. We get so lost in wanting and having and collecting when its just collecting memories that count. Sometimes I feel like being a bird moving from places to places whenever I feel like.
These pictures we took at the playa of Valencia. Oh I cant tell you about the beauty of this town. Its just full of history and charme. There will be more pictures of the town soon. I have soo many pictures more to show.

Awesome recipe! I added some walnuts for some crunch and an additional egg as mine weren't large. Moist and delicious!
Bluebell12added 1296 days ago
I think it means no refined sugars.
luvcookingadded 1582 days ago
Nice. I made it into a 22cm square cake tin. Turned out beautifully moist, soft and springy and cooked quicker too. Even the 'sugar' eaters devoured the cake and couldn't tell it had no refined sugar added. Will definately make again.
monkey1956added 1635 days ago
Instead of the syrup use stevia, the sugar from the bananas and dates is fructose not sucrose and some fructose is fine to consume.
